Gotcha where I want you

Got me where you want me

Only a marriage

In fine time

Could offer

A reward

Such as this

Liberating

Slowly

Just so

You

Can

Savor

Every

Essence

Of

It

You could

Run through the rain

Send rainbows through a bridge

Chase tadpoles

Tapdance in a shower

Or simply

Know and feel it here

You could scratch

Your head

And wonder if it’s real

I promise you it is

Nothing could quite

Compare

So don’t

Just go back to the times

When you realized

That it was real too

Felt it too

And bring that into

Today

Sometimes the spectacular

Is only arriving to a moment

When you meet it

Say hello

Because you understand

That you are alive in it

Beautifully alive

Wonderously alive

And you can be

Free

Maybe you’ll write a poem

Kiss your lover

Your mother

The trashcan

Hug a stranger

Hug a manger

Maybe you’ll sing a song

Drum that drum

Rhythm a jive or two

Maybe you’ll take one step

Or two

Maybe the whole day

Will ring anew

Because you choose

To allow it

It’s not a lofty thing

A longwinding thing

But just something

That happens

Because you noticed it

Were changed by it

Forever changed by it

Like a Lifehouse

A Beattle’s tune

An Enigma in your swirls

An Aquarius in your sublime

God in divine

Maybe

Just for a twinkle

Of a moment

You’ll notice the

Chasing stars

Make a wish

Enjoy the dipper

Or two

As a friend reminded you to

Maybe you’ll know

At the end of the day

That only what is in your heart

Matters

Because it inspires

And makes you shaky

Happy

Sometimes delirious

Delicious

Never vindictive

Only truly

In the moment

Of love

Maybe it’s forgiveness

That opens this door

But it’s you

That has

The handle.
