Magic
A cool dark glade. Lying in a boat, staring at the blue, blue sky from in between the leaves. Criss-cross patterns on my face. Come and go. Come and go. Shade and light. Light and shade.
The gentle lapping of water. Lying there all evening as twilight creeps up. Soon, it will be dark. Soon, the stars will be what I see when I peer through the leaves.
But with the water lapping so gently, there is no past. No future. Just the pure ecstasy of being. Suspended in between sleep and waking, reality and dreams. If I stretch out my hand, open my eyes, twitch a foot, or breath too hard, the magic of the moment will vanish.
It’s that slender, that fragile…this magic.
A ray of light that does not blind. A ray of light that warms. A ray of light that bathes me in glory, envelops me in complete contentment.
Nothing more. Nothing less. A little more or a little less and the balance will tilt...and the magic... will snap.
