May 2013
Take a picture.
Freeze the moment.
Catch it in a butterfly net and put it in a jar.
Snag the sunshine.
Hold it in your heart.
Keep it safe in a nest of forgotten daydreams.
Send a murmured song of contentment
Floating towards the horizon.
Let it catch the light just so-

Preserve the sun-dappled hills.
The sparkling brilliance of the
Ocean.
Caressing the shore,
A musical blue.

That lone bird
Soaring in the midst
Of an azure peace.

Frame the feeling of completion.
Of happiness.
Hold it close in the heart of the storm.
