Play-On

Play-On

No matter
how I run
or pause

You are there
waiting

Always quiet,
peaceful

Especially when
my mind adrift.

You sit beside the
shore

Every vessel carrying
each ‘thought’
floats on by.

You do not 
pull any of my ‘wanderings’
to the water’s edge.

You patiently
curl yourself
like a kitten
cradled in a blanket…
I almost hear your purrrr.

You leave room—
an empty space…
I settle at your side.

You laugh
as I pull myself
‘upright.’

AGAIN—

A song is being
played.

Perhaps, it is 
a first time
I hear it spilling

Notes after notes.

It is beautiful really…

and the Rest

I have discovered
so gently—

It has given me the 
JOY to play-on.
