Between
two sides of life
there is a space as wide
as the ocean
as small as the pause
between notes
In those places and spaces
we live and roam
smelling flowers,
revelling in the music of ages
clambering over rocks, with
travels under majestic prairie skies,
hearing geese calling their mates
watching ducks splash down
on wide open lakes
standing on sandy shores
with our arms open wide
for as long as we can and
as long as our will takes us
tho’ our bodies may run down and
forget we are no longer teenagers.
still we move on within
the circle of the life
we have come to know and cherish.
“Find ecstasy in life; the mere sense of living is joy enough.”
~ Emily Dickinson
