Internal Ecstasy

A perfect day like this is when my soul sings,

A chance for my lunges to breathe,

The horizon shows me what today brings,

Sunrise banana tones and tangerine,

Bacon, eggs, a pot of grits and mimosas,

Finger licks and charming chatter,

Stuffed stomach turns naps into comas,

Raindrops splatter on the window sill,

The aroma of Douglas Fir and Mountain Hemlock,

The therapy of still fog levitating over the hill,

Apricot honey sundown at 7 o’clock,

Late-night talks with wine in our cups,

French tip toes illuminated by moonlight,

Cinnamon kisses and red pumps,

Warm and misty nights,

Fluorescent traffic down the street insight,

King bedroom date,

With a maroon blanket to match,

Cat dancing with my ankles in a figure eight,

Hypnotic black fur is soft, and chin scratched,

Succumb to the sandman while gravity takes my eyelids,

Pray for another gift to appreciate the present,

Relax and release all of my muscles and limbs,

Soothing midnight thunder cracking the skies is always pleasant,

A perfect day like this is when my soul sings,

A chance for my lunges to breathe,

The midnight air allows my mind to wonder about endless possibilities,

It’s the little things that add up,

Because tomorrow is never guaranteed
