Is there a word for a moment in time where we feel absolute bliss? It happens every so often – these rare nuggets of gold We have to sift through dark, cloudy puddles to find them And we stumble upon these rare treasures; they clink on the pan We dangled our legs off the dock Eating our sandwiches we picked up on the way; talk lessened between each bite we took But the wind was just right and the sun on it's way down There was an even distribution of clouds amongst the sky A stone landed in the water. Clink. Bliss. I looked at you. Your curls pushed back, your eyes focused on the other side of the bank
