This Golden Moment

AHHHH,

that is a big sigh,

letting it all out

and soaking in the goldeny bliss of the sun.

Went to the beach again today (with miss Veda-lou, of course),

I love the still and quiet that settles in my soul when I am present

and that is where I am present most.

The shore,

with lapping waves

and cyclical tides.

I sigh because I (finally) got my feet wet.

I shed my beloved rubber boots

and waded around in the icey, salty seawater.

I splashed my face

and dampened my hair.

It felt so good.

And then I was still.

I sat on the sun sultry stones

and soaked in the rays of the golden light.

That's when I could really feel the settling inside.

Veda could feel it too.

She sat beside me,

the amazing companion that she is,

and watched

and listed

and soaked it all in.

We are quite the pair,

she and I.

This is very true.

We have great adventures together.

I love that crazy, hairy beast!

And now I am off to enjoy this settled moment in my soul.

Cheers!
