A crooked smile of a mischievous child,
pudding smudges telling the rest
of the story; sharing a blanket
with my hubby while snuggling
in our evening cozies;
a chance meeting with a friend
that leads to coffee and a lingering
conversation; an afternoon chasing
butterflies and watching the busy flight
of a lone bumblebee; sunrise walks
with morning birds in full chorus;
sunset evenings holding hands
in a double swing listening to the breeze
whisper through the leaves high above us;
those rare moments when part of the veil
is lifted and, by God’s grace, I understand
something more about eternity; endless
space, the stars like twinkle lights,
a moonlight dance, the only music
the beat of our two hearts at peace
beneath the expanse
of heaven.
