Tonight

The world is at peace.
Again realizing how lucky I am to be here.
Once more I can close my eyes
to envision the furthest reaches of Earth
and all that there is to offer.

Take me, please,
to where I need to see,
to gasp, to breathe, for life.
To be sitting here,
writing this to you, is only luck.
And I, my friend, am the luckiest.
