Hot Tub and Stars

There is something
inescapeable about connection.
Something so beyond us
that as I searched for
pen-thoughts wondering
around my head-I wondered
if I would ever be
able to allow words to
express this
monumental treasure.
That-even now-having
found pen and time to
attempt this expression
that something will be lost.
How could I attempt
to bring forth the
gift of David and I-
sitting in hot tub and
telling tales of aureola
borealis and
the synergy that exists
still as time passes
We share. It is
beyond the scope of
the words I am
familiar with-and yet
It is something I know
like I have never known
like being with your body
as it carries one
through but
never fully realizing the mole
on my left
nostril is me
It is feeling whole
It is cherished
But it is taken for
granted. But such
a part of me that
I shall never neglect
it. For in knowing
and realizing and
cherishing I have
become
the descendant
of this
perpetual motion that
shall never cease.
