THAT’S WHY YOU HAVE TO KEEP IN MIND

 

That’s why you have to keep in mind

The circumstances of current life

Their effect on vital energy and disposition

Imagine the semi-miracles that got you here

To the point of introspection

After years of intimate involvement

Practical and emotional barriers overcome

And that more unforeseen blessings exist

Awaiting your grasp

            Perhaps observation is preferred

            Worry about achievement and the next great love

            Face into letting them happen

            Maintaining health with prevailing kindness

            Should be a sufficient mental state

            For more of life’s graces to unfold

Repetition of past experiences isn’t possible

Time and circumstance prevent it

So we modify our objectives

Devise strategies current and feasible

Flow with the results

On a steady course to equanimity

Where none of these losses matter

Material insignificance

While you maintain calm

With a pleasant outlook

            This Bay comes up to meet me

            Blue against blue

            Ships slip by each other magically

            As three dimensions dissolve into two

            And I am left wondering

            What dimensions I would see

            If I let them occur to me                                                       180902.2
