Picture This...
Home, Sweet, Home.I love: ...that warmly intense look in her eye before she looks downward through stray hair, with a small smile that makes my sparks my mind, ...the perfect carve and slight slide of a waterski, a snowboard, a motorcycle, leaving me hanging, suspended, released from gravity, ...swimming down, down, until you should be running low on air, yet still feeling comfortable that your lungs are still supplying, ...that perfect curve and sway of her hip, ...the perfect cup of coffee, or comfortable hiking boot, at sunrise, ...the perfect storm (not that one), ...hitting the ball with the sweet spot, ...the feel of a long run, ...the perfect kiss (yes that one), ...the perfect guitar solo, ...air above timberline, ...the perfect fish on the end of my line, ...her breath on my neck, in my ear, ...a perfect fire, ...perfect absorbtion in reading or writing, or inner centered thought, ...hearing snow fall, ...sandy coves, ...clinging to rocky cliffs, ...the perfect afternoon nap, ...a perfectly ripe dripping peach, ...rip tides, ...whiteouts, ...perfect warm light and shadow, ...the perfect unexpected smile, ...arriving "home".
I hate not allowing myself to experience what I love. I experience perfect moments when I'm "home". This often happens far from my mailing (or emailing) address. I love the perfect trip.
Home, Sweet, Home.
