smiling

Life is going on
with or without us
constantly shifting
Like the sea.
our only delusion:
naming a direction.

Heaven or Hell

Such a perfect day

two hours of yoga

two at the coffee shop

perfect conversations with friends

all parts of life embraced

Today we are enjoying more peace

than many know their entire lives.

Wind on the hill

I love to get out, around sunset and take a walk up the hill.

I even like the anticipation, like sex, when you know it's going to happen

and you haven't yet moved a muscle, I don't ever know what it will be like

i don't' think it's ever been bad ( or at least not for a long time), and i love it every time.

Just an unexpected flower, or the wind pushing the grass flat against the hill

like forces bend me without my knowing anything, but this lying down and getting up.

Then they sky grows pink and red and i know it's getting dark, and I'm happy to be alive.
