World

I stared up
out of blue
just to stare at the sky

golden ray of sun
showered onto trees
and brick buildings

I blinked a couple times
observing passerby
moving seamlessly

I felt the touch of the wind
I felt my feet on the ground.
I felt my arms moving on my sides.

then I thought about you.
I am here, alive.
you are there, alive.

how miraculous is it
that we are both alive
at this time and this place?
