on a cloudless night,
surrounded by darkness,
the smell of cedar
lingered in the brisk air;
the only trace
of a flame that,
hours earlier,
burned so bright.
—
through the motions of life
forgetting what the night sky
really looks like.
obscured,
is the beauty
hidden in plain sight
by the bright lights
and growing distractions
that the city
so effortlessly provides.
—
the light show
of planets and stars
was just spectacular.
the heavens always intrigued him,
perhaps,
the only real constant
through the passage of time.
those very same stars,
admired by those
who stood before us.
—
the beauty,
in plain sight,
not able to be hidden.

a game of patience,
a deep breath,

a moment of pause,
scheming on the next move.
that benign pause,
was long enough to watch it fall down.

in the quest of quieting this voice
often requires taking a step back,
perhaps, even slowing things down.

leading to the deepest of love.

within a blink of an eye.
still on the same quest,
the purpose ever so resolute.

bypassing the superficial,
showing that the first reaction,
is a mere distraction
to what is deeper still.

what once felt like chaos,
now within the forced gaps
allowing time to make
sense of it all.
