haikus & freeform, pt 18

sunshine streams through the steam-streaked windows
saturday, wednesday, monday, thursday, no matter
right now! right here! not there, not yesterday or tomorrow
it doesn’t get any better then this

it never gets any better then this
think otherwise? whoa slow down! hold on now-
the next second, the next breath, the next heartbeat-
they are never promised.

life is a swirling kaleidoscope of change
amidst a cascading river of joys and sorrows
encapsulated in a whirlpool of journeys and discoveries
turn around! ah, i can breath!
how fitting, i could not see or feel
that the stream i was fighting
would pull me back home
to me!
=
journey near and far
close your eyes, swallow a star
home is where you make it
and it doesn’t have to be hard
