Moments of Becoming
To explore the best moments, every moment,
of a story perpetually unfolding,
becoming a painted canvas; "The Sea of Memory."
To feel the cool spray of boys' splashing
grand waves against the warm bank of a muddy pond.
To touch a diamond of far South Aftrica
in the delicate design of timeless love;
a golden band, a pormise of fidelity.
to tremble with unbidden prescience
as the tears on the edge of her wizened eyes
tumble into the cleft of unknown night.
To laugh in the innocent abandon
of a toddler chasing his first butterfly,
or the quietness of his first falling snow.
To breath the brief nearness of a midnight star
shooting through life, a glorious brightness.
To discover the intense intimacy
of the love of Almighty God in my heart,
like the softness of a late summer breeze
uncovering treasure; the balm of Gilead.
