Take The Shot

Oh, to capture

The electric dance
The head rush
The note in the air
The blood’s heat
The half-moment before dawn
The sound wave
The breath’s vapor
The holy hello
The grace of gratitude

The one who does

Mind’s Eye

If asked to tell the picture,
I truly like this place.
Here’s what to see:
there’s he and she
with no desire to race.

They’ve siblings of all colors
who lend or need a hand.
They give and take
and music make
in Brotherhood, the band.

Oh, and there’s a hammock
they take it everywhere.
Cities, mountains,
beaches, badlands
and with the weary, share.

On fortunate occasions,
they visit and have games,
share food and drink,
then do and think
and recognize their sames.

And of their differences
-what’s not to celebrate?
From those they’ll find
the lifelong kind
of lovers, friends and mates.
