Eight-thirty-two am

Orange candles and I

Wait within

My client’s absence.

Such expressed need last week

Have passed upon

More rivers of life experience

Hopefully.

I hold him, his essence

In my heart.

May he be well

May he be safe

May he be protected

May he be at peace.

Nine-oh-four am

Distant

Insistent city sirens

Crash into my absent clients time

and

The driver

The paramedic

The one in crisis

Their family and friends

Enter our session.

So many opportunities

To breathe in Amaan

To breathe out Light.

Nine-thirty am

My absent client

Parts from my heart

Payment due

My candle still burning

This city still turning

and

I sit still and wait.

Amaan: A call for refuge and peacefulness within Ultimate Love
