Celestial beings

I have lost track of all the paths I've trod
Of all the steps I've laid
Of all the sunsets I've seen bled
And of all the night fasts broken served on the platter of a breaking dawn's sky
I have never counted the rain drops shed from the brink of a clouds dark sigh
Nor tallied the winds kiss brushed across my neck
Never have I felt the need to score the days or the settling warmth of the sun's rays.
For all of these
Like the countless leaves
Are moments of affinity
Redressed regressions of endless memories
They've always been apart of me
Always been a part of what life means
Fields of green or the tranquility of a fresh snows sheen
They've always been it seems
Fundamental certainties
Reassuring presences
A familiar face found in the place of moments minded
Each weighs far more than the absences between the steps pried
Or the dam of unspoken words and their merging cacophony of thought
I only need to close my eyes
To see their light
To recall the dew's kiss of the earth upon the soul
Or recall the curl of the feather as it falls
And to hear the settling inflections of the voice as it eases between breath's
The longed and hoped, the sought
All a blessing and reprieve
Amidst the noise of infractions
Amidst the noise of a world and it's distractions
To feel in the presence the breadth of existence
It's recurrent persistence
A blessing to the touching of madness
The touching of feeling
The touch of endless dreams
And celestial beings..
