"Perceptions About Nows..."

 

Here 

now is my morning 

- your late evening.  

 

Now

And I -

I am your past, 

already just a yesterday

...a mote of before...

And you -

you are my future

- my tomorrow yet to be,

a breath of to come.

 

You

...speak with a ghost...

 

Me

I whisper with a dream...

 

The night...

Such stars hold your eyes

bright, twinkling

so very far and yet

yet ...so very close

so touchably ...close

wishably

close

as you feel my breath

so lightly cross your cheek...

and I...

I quietly sit

the moment in hand

gazing ...softly, thoughtfully -

watching the colors form

coalesce

swirl and merge

as the whole world bit-by-bit

becomes

…while tasting you

ever on the wind...

 

Chris

the morning side of the mountain.. and the twilight side of the hill.. the gentle touch of fingertips and the cool caress of a predawn breeze.. even the darkness and the light have a moment.. a passionate embrace... the ghosts and dreams are really not so very different.. a lovesong wispered to a dream...

As always, your style is simply elegant and profound at the same time. You are fond of saying you speak the truth, and you do it well ...

We speak and live within our perceptions... each was only a now...
Sigh, this lingers, changed my consciousness, completely...

Perceptions... so many, many "nows"
A profound and simple piece that relates well, though provoking, well done.
