The Moment
I remember a day (well,
really, lots of days) like this
Feeling I've got laundry in the dryer
And I'm lying on my bed in the next room
Listening to some music.
You'd rented us a condo
on the coast, and
Picked me up from work—
It was a sweet surprise gift,
I felt, for the both of us.
Cozy and nice, it was just we two
alone, away from all the rest:
Our own gentle world.
I think there's poetry in this,
the poetry of living in the moment,
With laundry in the dryer and
Us two lying on the bed in the next room,
Listening to some music.
