SIMPLE PRESENCE

Although it seems that experience is complex
Thoughts, memories, concerns, feelings, worries, plans
There is also this moment of presence 
Like a virgin screen
Peaceful, tranquil
We notice the hum of the refrigerator
The shining light of the sun onto the deck
The squirrel hopping on the branches
It is all one fabric
Thought, sound of birds in the distance
The tingling in the neck
