_______________
I poured into a favorite mirror
and gazed
into Just-Once
and Only-Here eyes
felt pulses behind them
come-go
come-go
come-go
race-by
savored briefest of aires
hungry in
sated out
hungry again
sated out
hungry more
stood still
in that Here
at that Now
silent
and whispered
once
then again
and still again:
"Uncounted atoms
journeyed
uncounted years
from many Only-There places
Only-Once times
to meet here
to meet now.
To where
to when
will they go next?
Can I go too?"

Was it not St. Paul who said…at first we see through a glass darkly, then face to face?
The Here, a measure of all that we are, all we have been, all we might yet discover in the distance.
I have enjoyed reading your Poetry.
