Clouds and Truth

Toes splash in the cool green
River, Maria raises the club
Of forgiveness then laughs
When the tide turns the
Water red. Emerged in the
Moment enlightenment flashes
Touch speaks the only truth we
Will ever fully comprehend.

Move to the next task, stir
The coffee and try to
Forget, but a prayer is
Answered and I remember
There will always be clouds.

Every moment honors the
Chance to be itself and
Every cell in my body howls
For the haven of her smile.
