Morning light spills across the table,
a patch of warmth on woven cloth.
A bowl rests there, simple, white,
and breathes.
Like a prayer that forgot the words
and chose movement instead.
Hands wrapped around warmth,
the hum of a house not yet awake,
dust drifting through air.
Time suspended—
In that moment, everything ordinary
felt sacred.
