What I Heard While Looking at the Moon

Were I to say what I see in you it would be this
I see the light of a new day arising over the mountains
I see the uniqueness of an oriental poppy standing amidst a field of lavender
I see invisible wings made visible and miracle made clear

Were I to say what I hear when I listen to you it would be this
I hear the laughter of the leaves when the wind has tickled them
I hear the song of the sea after a storm has washed the shore clean
I hear the expression of All That Is in each sound you make

Were I to say what I feel when you pass by it would be this
I feel the strength of a thousand mountains
I feel the wonder of a thousand snowflakes
I feel the oneness of all of life in a simple sideways glance from your eyes

Were I to say what I love about you it would be this
Everything
