That Breathless Space

This is, I think,
what holiness is:
the natural world,
where every moment is full
of the passion to keep moving.
I've knelt there,
and so have you,
hanging on
to what you love,
to what is lovely. - Mary Oliver

I am hanging on to the banquet of beauty that we feasted upon during our weekend hike...

The dramatic skies that train our eyes upward...















You and chums, so eager to join us on our journey, howling like wolf pups atop boulders, then quietly almost reverently pausing to absorb all this loveliness...

all this love.
