spilling with delight

there are days

i am especially aware

and spilling with delight

days i can barely get enough

of the beauty

and all the joyful taking in

beauty

to inhale

to strain my ears towards

to gaze at

to lose myself in

and oh....those 

moments of simplicity

and dailiness 

 - tiny hints of heaven -

to celebrate

with a dear friend

or truest love

those unencumbered moments

when joy springs fresh

teasing me into the chase

to capture 

with heart and soul 

and even sometimes 

with a lens

my heart is spilling with delight.
