I wake to morning
astonished by its gift
The sky opens wide to greet me
the sun lays a warm kiss upon my face
my beloved stirs beside me
the world waits with open arms
And I think
this could be the last day of my life
So I will live it as such
each moment a gate to infinity
each breath a hymn
each heartbeat a door
into the boundless realm of compassion
