Fleeting Presents Om, the tone lingers moments brush past taken in as a breath deeply, carefully, some future is about to be swallowed… They tried to tell us it would go this fast... but we were young and foolish... and blinked without believing... Om, becomes ahh, as a kaleidoscopic love caresses a memory sensed but a flash ago... an instant refracts unfolding yesterday in a heart’s beat Ahh…finds its weight in a heavy breath escaping into yesterday as you breathe in tomorrow’s present now. I teeter upon the brink of soon to know fleeting presents ~*~ © Karilea Rilling Jungel July 16, 2006 [Partially Inspired by Dixie Alligood and Julia Cameron] |

Fleeting gifts of the present become fleeting pasts and futures and more presents in an intricate Sunshine mind-meander with wonder-moments all along the way, ending in an upward-turned smile of excited anticipation of the future. Thank you. - Owl |
