Lifes Pulse

Life has a pulse, or a rhythm, if you will.
You just need to listen, and look, to enjoy.
There is the rhythm of the seasons,
Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring,
Each with it's own peculiar beauty.
Cold winter evenings in front of a fire,
Spring with emerging flowers forgotten since last year,
The wonderful long hot days of summer,
And the breathtaking colors of the autumn.
The cycle of the sun, as pink and orange and yellow horizon
Announces the arrival of the day.
The sun jouneys across the sky,
Sending light and shadows to us mortals,
To do with as we please,
Untill it finally surrenders to the far horizon,
and darkness envelopes us yet again.
There is the tide, that ebbs and flows upon the beach twice each day.
Other lifeforms brought to the edge of our existence.
And when it has receded,
It sometimes leaves clean sand,
Or some of it's hapless inhabitants,
Or takes one of ours to it's busom.
There is the quickened pulse of two towheaded sisters,
As they run and play in the grass,
And they argue and fight and tease,
But they love each other, tho it may not look it!
And this is as it should be.
There is the subdued pulse of the Lady,
For a stolen moment, she slumbers in my arms,
And I brush brunette hair from over her eyes,
So as not to disturb her peace.
And as I gaze upon her intimidating beauty,
For the briefest of time, the pulse of two hearts are as one.
Life has a pulse, but sometimes we fail to see,
Or hear, or feel.
So, dear reader, take a breath, be at ease,
And for just a moment,
Contemplate the pulse.
