Let it be enough to quietly sit
And sip your coffee, staring out at rolling hills.
Let it be enough to just lie in his arms,
Breathing as the edges blur around your two soft skins.
Let it be enough to feel content,
Even though some sadness lingers.
Even though anger moves like a summer storm.
Even though you tread the waters of your own human vulnerability,
Wanting and longing and fearing some imagined loss.
Let all these winds be welcome, and enough.
See how they paint a sunrise sky
On the humble vastness of a quiet moment.
Listen to your bones who whisper
Footsteps of all past and future.
Those loyal companions of the lonely now
Are waiting for your love.
Settle deep into this breathing beating body,
and if you dare – lean in.
Snuggle up with this community of things,
These wisdom-keepers, these watch-dogs, these mirrors.
And if within this nestled place you find a courage rise,
then consider this the greatest dare: just
Let it be enough.
