REFLECTION
This past week for me
has included moments of reflection.
A clearing of the mind, if you will.
Organizing of thoughts,
perspective.
Balancing of desires,
contemplation.
Emotionally I felt a bit vulnerable.
At times a pit sat in my stomach,
butterflies some describe.
Sitting in a chair,
meaningless gestures,
filling time.
Wait!
My heart skips a beat!
I see messages
exchanged between two friends.
One that I can no longer see,
but I feel her in my heart.
I hear her in my mind.
I see her as though she is here.
I smell her hair,
from our last hug.
A treasured moment.
I feel sad.
Tears roll down my cheek.
I reflect.
Grateful,
one's soul can be so magnificent!
How lucky was I
to have known such a beautiful soul.
Her impact was tremendous,
although she never knew.
And I reflect.
My earlier thoughts
seem balanced.
Not so confused.
Clear, calm, content,
simplified.
I look again,
as I relish
her words.
"I hope you feel the biggest squeeze I am wrapping around you"
"I love you dearly".
I reflect.
I am at peace.
I am content.
I am blessed.
