This Moment

How is it possible?

to soar so high

into body and mind-bliss,

sensing the beauty

of a single moment?

To recover from such a

passionate  and physical transformation

then again,

find that moment,

time after time?

To ponder this simple,

perplexing wonderment

finding no answers

other than

the proven paradoxes of life--

   to trust beyond our human comfort,

   willingly falling
   backwards.

   to love and feel joyfully

   regardless of the past

   to be unattached

   in the moment,

   like a string of pearls

   falling

   from a necklace

   to choose to be present at all times

   so that gifts cascade

   into our very being

   like the flow

   of a spring-fed stream.
