they say everyday
can be god’s perfect grace
and maybe one day
we’ll all know that peace
in the meantime there is presence

they say everybody
can be a perfect being
and maybe one day
we’ll all know for sure
in the meantime there is patience

today I sense a calm
relax my fingers
upon your jaw
content to say
and already know
how wonderful you are

importance is individual preference
and personal fondness is precious
today I am enjoying fondling
the spine along your back

and as I kiss each vertebrae
awakening chambers along the way
tingling delight with sincerity
knowing today… is aligned
