Passion

There is mystery in the mundane
There is passion
Real passion is cloaked in the deep, subtle, quiet and committed
The nursing of a baby
The planting of a garden
The preparing of a meal
The soft lingering kiss of lovers

Moments of authentic passion have an indelible signature

it is this:
they transcend all forgetting
the image
the gesture
the embrace
the exchange
the risk
the reach
the smile
the kiss

the jump
the power
the gift
the thoughtfulness
every passionate impulse lives with
and
resonates through us forever
