Blessings

may the mornings come 

like a gossamer curtain...billowing

with murmurs of rain breeze

chocolate-flavored coffee, 

and poetry hangovers....

may the afternoons lull over 

like the fisherman's boat 

upon an idly gleaming

golden-tipped

grey sea...

may the evenings echo...

like a father's resonant laugh...

with a heart unburdening...

and reaching out

....to another's 

may the nights always...be fragrant

with the bliss of the day,

with unharmed hands and feet,

fondly ruffled hair, and kissed cheeks, 

with a calmed-down soul

star-fulls of breaths, and pillows, 

with a moon streaming down

in nourishing light

with gliding owls...

chamomile teas...magnolia trees 

and holy silences.

Oh, to have a poetry hangover....how divine a thought that is! Overdosing on words that taste like chocolate and shine like the sun! You have given us a list of warm and wonderful moments in our lives....moments we want to stretch round our shoulders like a shawl. Peaceful and serene....and so delicious! Sanober, you are so very talented. This is superb! Lydi**
