Sliding Down This Miracle
sliding down this miracle
engulfing myself in the pleasure of this complete disbelief
i knock on all the wood i am connected with
just last year this was not even a mere thought
now i am collecting seashells and hearing the waves crash
my heart procedure has garnered such extraordinary results
now i can walk to the beach access
now i can run at breakneck speed to the sweet, salty waters of the ocean
i hope that my atrial flutter will never come back
i wish that i could put it in an old sunkist bottle and dispose of it in an unnoticed place
with the bag of seashells in my left hand, i take a moment to let the cool ocean water consume my whole being
i forget about everything and and allow myself to become totally lost
while in this lovely state of oblivion, i suddenly realize that my bag of seashells got lost at sea
i grab the bag and begin again....refueled and refocused
