She is gentle, nurturing. She soothes even the strongest of summer storms and harshest of hungers.

I indulge her intimate embrace. Heart pressed to her chest and mind cascading with craving.

Lightness fills my strained being, stillness becomes my only feeling as she gifts the sweet perspectives of

Endless possibilities. Infinite opportunities. Serendipities.

Now I am dreaming. Awake and in purely conscious good feeling, for the first time, truly seeing.

Ceasing to exist within duality or deception, basking in the seamless serenity of this divine connection.

Eternally in reverence, breathing her reflection. I have no attachment to life, nor to possession. In her, I am free.

and not entered because I didn’t overly like it in the end….🙃 I don’t know why, either. Yet.

But when faced with hitting the delete or publish button…. I decided to share it anyway 🌟
