She looked wilder
out in the water and sky.
She was unexpectedly happy at that

She could not describe it.
How perfect
is the earth.

in bed.

roses in the vase
his head on the pillow.
The view was so unsettlingly beautiful,
This is exactly
where I want to stay.

who lose ourselves
in life.
The actual experience of the world
We valuably know, is everywhere
because we continuously
delight in life.
