Feeling Blue

Lake Earl

Salem, OR

Castle Rock

Today my life feels perfect

That frightens me

I feel change coming

and can't imagine a change

which isn't also a loss

Home

I want to hold on to each loved one
who today, is breathing and
freeze the moment

I want the young man to stay young
The old Lady to stay healthy
The pets to stay irritating

Life is good
It has been good before
in different ways
on different days
at different shores

but it has never been
like this

and
never will again

Tomorrow I might awake to beauty

But right now

I'm already here.
