You are There, Here with me

Once upon a time is ever
Minutes unticking dawning stayed
In my vision all the oceans
Wading footsteps start cascade.

Across a prairie torched in sundown
Drinking lips of rivers free
Peaceful following of a heartbeat
You are there, here with me

In the mirror of reflection
Scruff kneed climbing up a tree
Popping bubbles of reminder
You are there, here with me

Could my inkwell touch creation
Pierce the truth of always love
You would be the one with answer
Gleaned from sky climbed search above

So I wait here in the stillness
Opening all my depth of be
With joy to find what I was knowing
You are there, here with me.

I love it when you rhyme.   This is so pretty, Martie. *hugs*

The stars will shine when I am gone,
the earth will turn on as before,
the gulls, still race along the shore,
the morning star, still kiss the dawn

Here, there, or in-between, friendship is a perpetual celebration of our yesterdays, and the spirit that helps us find our tomorrows.

This poem feels especially good to me today, because it carries the promise and the reality.

And it feels even more delightful
to me this evening...
because a warm hand held my heart
all day.
