Just When....

I'm enjoying the pleasures of living in paradise...with a weekend off...Monday shows up...and strikes me back into the real world...where much more clothing is needed for the body...oh well...how was your weekend?....

I'm back at it this am...mediating on "Jesus is the Center of My Joy"... I first heard this song sang at the blessing of the new Holy Angels Catholic Church in Chicago...I fell in love instantly with this song...it has "mocho" meaning for me...but I'll share that story
with you guys another time...I digress...to a happy moment...

So few words...so little time...he called...I yearned to hear his voice...to consume it...from such a distance...but...he called...I wanted to say so much...yet our conversation was but a minute...and yet he still called...the internal thrill of hearing his voice...the comfort of knowing he cares...and then...he says "babes"....that moment and word was amazing...so much meaning packed into that combination of five letters...and yet he still called...

This rambling of words on my part reminds me of the time...and a special poem...which in fact have meaning for multiple events in my life....I've posted it before...but like I said it's special...and I see some meaning in it today....

"Sweet Expressions"

How can I write...
about my forlorn, my longing, my hurt.
How can I write...
your lips, your beauty, your presence.
How can I write...
about our mutual desires only satiated by time, by need, by existence.
How can I write...
about my sweet expressions.
