miracle

hold on carefully

to the miracle called life for

you only experience it once

memories

sun spangled waves

heavy salted sea breeze

memories abound

words fail me

your face on my mind

your eyes haunting me

still words fail me

seamless happiness

ah how I pine

for that endless seamless happiness

that no money can buy

this Christmas

a warm bed, a full belly

and a hug is all we need

this Christmas

window shopping

lazy winter afternoon

ambling along the sidewalk

window shopping

unlived

long afternoons

reminiscing about

the life unlived
