every once in a while it pops in again

enough wonder to keep my head abreast of

the waves that ebb flow and sometimes crash

I’m not suggesting I’m an exception

quite the contrary anymore I know

this is life period for everyone

it demands perspective sure

one’s ebb may be another’s flow

and a crash to one could be a simple bump in the night against the edge of a duvet-warmed bed

but today as the sun pinked the edges of cotton balled clouds and the warmth of the leg against my chilled toes

as I curled back into the covers and the pie leftover best for breakfast

had my head crowning the glory of a moment

and I could call it enough

with wonder
