Don’t Miss This

don’t miss it
toes shuffling along hardwoods
his arms wrapped tight around your back
laughing so hard patrons stop to stare

don’t forget what matters
the smell of his skin
the grace and flow of your body
the taste of pad thai

it is moments in between
the exhale and the inhalation
that make up a life
and remind us why it’s so god damn grand.
