The taste of rich morning coffee,
the soft feel of the bathrobe
cushioning my seat,
my beautiful vibrant paintings
throughout this small home
are emblems of my life
being lived out
in the open
today
right now,
true joys
and minor marvels,
sensuous,
replete.
Not always easy
to toast gratefully,
the moments of our days
with the complete
panoply
of yes and no
and the gray
in-between,
so breathe in deeply
wherever you sit--
taste slowly of your life--
the vague edges
and hidden center,
the underneath
and tongue savored,
the shine of what’s seen,
and know that
this rare gift
of intimacy’s threshold,
gleams here
for you
to mindfully enter,
become love,
thus renewed.
