From afar

As a shift in the current,

a quickening,

you appear through my day

to play across my lips

as a smile

that lightens these eyes.

 

Ethereal one,

shimmering at the edge of my psyche,

how strangely you touch my senses

From afar…

 

Could I,

from here

reach for your hand

and thank you

for the wave of possibility

breaking through my soul.
