Perfect simple moment

This is it

Life

The quiet breath

The silence

Sadness rising sometimes

The realisation of the enormity of the journey

We walk the deserted winter afternoon streets

Even amidst the deeper resistance

Of only longing for sleep

But I know we need this

I must take care of us both

This is the sweetest moment

Though

Us together in the stillness

Your soft fur like a blessing

Under my moving hands

Bending dow to breathe and just be with you

No need for words

Together I feel our two hearts beating

So I am not really alone

Even if

At this time of year

Things feel unfathomable

Acceptance is the quiet being with

The breathing into

The resting in presence

Of this perfect

Simple moment
