(the Difference)

The difference between staring at the ocean from behind a window frame

and looking into his eyes of deep from the foamy shoreline, feet naked;

the difference between the sky seen in an astronomy software display

and the summer dome where thousands of millions of glimmering stars shine;

the difference between the glimpse of an image of a mountain snowy trail

and the whiplashing wind when it pairs like a bourdon the shoes rhythm

while you get step after step closer to the crown of fiery rocky peaks.

 

The difference between a cd and a concert,

between drop and hammering rain,

between a fob and a chain.

The difference between the memory of a voice

and that voice itself,

between a verse found once on a screen

and an old dusty book on an old dusty shelf.

 

The difference between morning and night,

wheel and plough,

aliveness and life,

simple air and heady oxygen,

a thunderclap and the Jupiter's big red storm.

 

Or a love and our Love.
