Moments Of Grace Poem by R.J. Wynn

Moments Of Grace

Rating: 4.7


My mindset is get there, planning four days ahead
The details and timing, spinning round in my head
One more show, the logistics… those traffic delays
I'll be driving all night and it's getting late

So I take in a sunset as I'm headed that way
It's so peaceful it's near to the look on your face
The changes in color do make me wonder
If you take in a sunset as I'm headed that way

It's like I hear your heartbeat, with my ear to your chest
I feel goose bumps and shivers a thousand miles west
Your fingernails baby, the sounds that you make
You can't keep from crying in moments of grace

So I take in a sunset as I'm headed that way
It's so peaceful it's near to the look on your face
The changes make me wonder, yes they do make me wonder
If you take in a sunset as I'm headed that way

Do you hear what I hear? do you think what I think?
Do you want to hear more? Do you need a drink?
My mindset is get there... getting into your bed
The details and timing spinning round in my head

Do you take in a sunset as I'm headed that way?
Is it peaceful and near to the look on your face?
Do the changes in color give you to wonder?
If it's you in the sunset or the sunset inside you

Can't keep me... from crying... in moments of grace

Details and timing are always spinning in the head. Moment of grace arrives at its own time. Beautiful poem. Thank you.

Wow, that's certainly enough to keep you traveling west, a very powerful love indeed. Hopefully her love for you is as great as your love for her. I've never known anyone who drives 'big rigs' (well an uncle but I don't really know him at all) , it must have been hard to be so far from home so much.
