Normal Day

Let me be aware of the treasure you are,
let me learn from you, love you, savor
you, bless you, before you depart

Let me not pass you by in the quest of
some rare and perfect tomorrow,
let me hold you while I may
for it will not always be so

One day I shall dig my fingers into the earth,
or bury my face in the pillow or stretch myself taut
or raise my hands to the sky and want
more than all the world - your return
