This Moment Always You Poem by Dónall Dempsey

This Moment Always You

Rating: 5.0


Woman waking in the morning
to the surprise of this new room

That awaits you
(all night dreaming)
now it sees you

naked…rising…running…flinging
shutters…flying…wide & open

the excited sunlight shouting…laughing…streaming

to you
as if
you

were St. Francis
and the sunlight
the birds!

The miracle of you
absorbed

absurdly in love with sunlight
(and I in you)

this moment always

this moment always
new

this moment always
you.
