Inner Woman

Earl Grey Tea

Clicking knitting needles

Opening a pristine hard cover book

For the first time

Cuddles in down comforter

with my best friend

and lover

Watching the dancing flames

Around a campfire

in the middle of Alaska

Sunset over a

Vermilion lake

Washing gold

over the granite

peaks

Or the absolute silence

as I meditate

stilling my thoughts until

nothing is left
