Sitting here at Suizo

Heaven tomorrow prevents heaven today (a poem)

Hi friends. Thank you for being a part of The Circle Of Freethinkers!

The theme for my writing this month is: North Star.

Today's poem offers a little slice of bliss, a word that is hard to describe and yet such a beautiful feeling.

Life is not always blissful, which makes the blissful moments more special.

Please enjoy, “Sitting here at Suizo.”

-Mike

Sitting here at Suizo,
Pen hits page,
But I can't write—
Halted by a moment.

What the hell was I writing about?
What the hell was I thinking about?
What could be better than this?
What else could be heaven?

Jungle to one side,
Ocean the other,
Sand, sails,
Wagging tails.

Now, more.

Monkeys swing into view,
In the lush, sun-streaked canopy above.
Reminders that this is it,
And “it” is nothing short of
Majestic…
Miraculous…
Magical.

And “it” is every day, all day,
And right here and now.

And now, more.

Coffee.
Costa Rica's finest.
Delivered with a warm, genuine smile,
And senses awaken.

Now, more.

This pen and paper,
Lapping waves,
Bird songs,
Blazing sun,
And welcome clouds,
The perfect breeze.

Sitting here at Suizo…
My heaven

And for so long,
Heaven was coming tomorrow,
But heaven tomorrow prevents heaven today.

If you search for heaven tomorrow,
You'll be searching for heaven, tomorrow.

It is only here and now.

So…where's yours?
