Held (Poem)

Jan 23, 2025



Mug held in my hands like a lover
handle, body, foot, base -
totally, tenderly


Don’t we all want to be
held like that


Even if we've
somehow forgotten


Lyrics to "Held" first arose January 23.2025, sitting in a meditation group as I gazed at mug of tea in embrace. The Way includes the body, the body includes the Way. A hug can be sacramental, so can sex, and so can enjoying the taste of delicious food or drink, and the feel of soles of feet on a sandy beach or early evening breeze on face.
