It's Now

Check out my you tube channel where I read my poetry.

There are miracles when I open my eyes.
The smile on the cat, the taste of strong coffee.
A Beethoven symphony while I taste dark chocolate.
I exist in the present, next week is nebulous.
The touch of my baby's cheek against mine
defeats the demons and destroys chaos.

Integration of these day-to-day gifts yields a true treasure. This happiness cannot pose a threat as we have our sweet authority on it.

"A Beethoven symphony while I taste dark chocolate."

Connecting together pleasures of music and chocolate. Chocolate gives everything its own meaning.

... I know what you mean about that baby's cheek against your own .. I love the feel of my little granddaughters cheek when it brushes against mine .. not sure she feels the same but yeah, the world seems different somehow at such times .. Neville
