This Is Life...

this is life
today
right here where I am
not some distant time
not some distant place
but here now
this is my art
this moment is my painting
my creation
not some distant scenario
not some distant circumstance
but this
right here in my hand
this moment
I will not arrive ‘someday’
I will not become ‘eventually’
I am
already
now
this moment
with all of its drama
with all of its uncertainties
with all of its adventure
there is no waiting
there is no wondering
divine will is now
to breathe
to observe
to drink it all in
to be
here
alive in this mortal flesh
alive in this mortal moment
this is life
this is purpose
to be
