In This Moment

When you look up from writing in your journal and it feels like

you're looking at a tiny abstract work of art

and all it is is

the inside of a security envelope with paint slapped on

and mounted on an ordinary paint chip from the hardware store.

Add the smell of the lilac candle,

and just for a moment or two, 

you wonder how life could get any sweeter than right now,

in this moment.
