Eyes meet. 
Nerve endings tingle. 
That spark of something fills the air. 
A connections between two people- instantaneous 
And within moments, the certainty settles 
Like a soft new blanket 
Warm and reassuring 
With no fuzz balls to mar its perfection. 
This is what has been...

she remembered him as soon as their eyes met
he began walking toward her; they met in the middle
the rest of the room disappeared, nothing else mattered

she smiled at her life mate, recognizing without knowing how
he smiled, for his dreams had been all about this pretty...

The Instant

As we age our way
On into the sunset
There is much yet to do

We reflect on our own paths
And the people we have met,
The things we have experienced,
The places we have been,
And those we have love,
And those we have lost

Some have crossed over
That bridge that...

For an instant he is a lad
smelling the perfume of a young lady
for the first time 
or maybe for the second or third,
olfactory memories are powerful
and travel together.
Now on this morning, the snow carries
a peppermint and lilac scent
and he an old man searching for a...

Everything today is instant!
More ram, faster processor – 
My God!--how I miss the
Slower and Lesser; when one
had pause between actions – 
took time for personal stills
and reflections. Nowadays, plugs
in all ears; screens everywhere...
gone the epic when people would
openly share, bits and pieces of
meaningful self: when...

An instant touch 
Can bring life 
Fertilize an egg
Procreate and excel 

Expand on an idea
Stand on business
Grow your company 
Instant entrepreneurial touch

An instant touch
Can bring death
Shot of a gun 
Driving drunk 

An instant touch can heal
Like the woman in the bible 
Who had an issue...

Bird songs instead of beeping machines
My body free from tubes and attachments
Goodbye to ICU , welcome home in comfort
As peace surrounds me and  pets love on me
Slowly I walk, one step at a time
Slowly I do things, one moment at a time
I am thankful...

packaged, dried worms are instant.
Just add hot water, stir, and eat....

Take me…
		Softly…
			Firmly…
Inside your thoughts is beautiful. 
Sweet confusion, troubled spirit,
There I feel good, beloved,
No past, no future,
Enfold me with a glance,
The deepness of a feeling you teach,
Take me…
	Softly…
			Firmly…
Sublime instant isolated in time.

View the mountain peaks,
So majestic in the sky.
Climbing a great feat.

If simple instructions you heed.
Don’t ever time squander,
From right paths don’t wander,
And never be caught up in greed!...
