A Wonderful Wonder

When you come to me

Suddenly

From that nowhere place

Of thought and memory

And long-lost embrace

I do not employ

Tears of futility

For what was, is the one thing

That no longer can be

Softly I caress 'now'

With a tender kiss

Living fully, I vow,

In the moment that is…

 

...for the moment that is

I shall cherish tonight

As I bask in the bliss

Of a dream taking flight
Hope is the angel
Bestowing its wings
The present, a threshold
To beautiful things
Each breath, a footfall
To the mystery
In the wonderful wonder
Of what is yet to be
