Our Glass

We are like an hourglass sharing one-grain, one emotion, one taste of ourselves at a time As you fill me up with new, Exciting, enticing experience you release yourself to me You free yourself to take in more of the world, more of life, more of love less of what entangles you I hunger for all that you have for me give to me, bring to me the way you enlighten me with the wisdom that is your way All that you absorb from the world I hope, I know, I trust will be a part of my adventure my experience, my happiness So now with gentle emotion we roll us over in shifting sands to other moments we grow together. As I release all the stress of the hour, all the love I have harbored for you all the emotion that flavors us I pour out just before my cup runs over Just before the pleasure becomes too much just when I have the most to give It clears my head like a spring rain it cools the fevered pace of my life It culls the weed from the seed before the planting And with all this we grow again because we keep our baskets full there is so much more to harvest there always has been there always will be I in you, and you in me Because we are like an hour glass sharing sand together... counting heart beats capturing each moment for eternity.
