love that mine eyes open in the morning
and i remember that i have loved and just
maybe have also been, in this mundane
sojourn, a fortuitous longevity of life
that my heartbeat was in sync with my
siblings and lifelong friends i've made,
‘Mi Mamasita’ in giving me birth, now she
too has been reborn onto an eternal
transcendent realm
i love my partner, my wife, of thirty-seven
years and how she has made my heart
beat with a flurry and my spirit dance, she
has opened mine eyes to a joy that replaced
a sadness within
i love the trees that sway in wind and are
home to birds that sing, squirrels that play,
the flora that tickle their rooted feet, and
the stream that runs along waving with
many ‘hi’s’ of ripples running by
i love the ocean and its tides that roar upon
the shore In sunlight by day shimmying with
silver delight and in the noir of night it becomes
a mirror to the stars as the moonbeams kiss
the sea
i love that i have been given this gift of life with
eyes to witness, mine ears to listen to its music,
hands to touch and feet to run, a spirit of dance,
but most of all, a heart that beats in rhythm with
Love~
