The unshareable lightness of seeing

The naturally ignored moment

of a photo opp
as you witness

that perfect twilight moon
with your loved ones, friends, family, or tribe.

The forgotten opportunity

of the social share - the innocent laughter
of your children deeply engrossed 

in the art of unscripted moment-making.

The perfect smile of that happy parent, 

as she REMs through her dreams

reliving her favorite times

of life spent with her child.

The bright lit face 

shining through the dim lights

- as you thank them heartily 

for their gracious service
of food and shelter -
helping the rest of the world 

live their holiday.

And a million more moments -
of travels with others whose paths 

we could never guess or anticipate,

but are there to intersect with
yours.

Neither shared nor share-able
in any medium other than
a mirror-neuronal reflection with
a snapshot stored in future nostalgia.

--

Filled with sharper smells, 

softer sounds, brighter lights
and broader smiles,

 

no digital net's resolution can yet frame

these summarized sensations
of the subject of this reality --

the core that is reborn by its self every moment,

through billions of firings electrifying 

a swarm of trillions of coordinated,
flowing, brimming and simmering

unity of being

that is

you.
