In looking for it, it is often lost. But really, always there...

I find it,

 

fleeting

 

in moments between planning and remembering

Bursting forth

 

Like breaks of brilliant sunshine.

In the rise of my lover’s chest,

 

thick and warm beneath my cheek.

 

In the wild and beautiful flowers,

 

that don't know the word ****

 

In the unexpected, brilliant red and green of a hummingbird hovering,

 

so close… so close

In the increasingly rare moments when my daughter and I SEE each other,

 

fully as we are, bound and flawed.

In the now,

 

There it is.

 

 

Bliss...

and then. goes. only to come again.

 

forever, it comes again.
