Words are limiting
but they are
what I have
to explain
moments of communion
with something bigger.

Something sweet
and all encompassing.
Something that feels personal
and universal
at the same time.

Moments that make
me glad to be
alive on this planet.

Stunning moments,
struck quiet by
beauty.

Cracked open
by music
or a sunset
or an act of kindness.

Moments of
awareness that
make my heart quiver.

Is this God?

I know it has
something to do
with love.
