Wonder

by ncorres

You don’t expect
the sky to give way to
a moment where you are suddenly
out of yourself,
plucked from to do lists and worrying
about tomorrow,
a moment where you are
absorbed into the cosmos
heart open,
mind quiet,
being a part of the fabric
of an infinite universe
so beautiful
and so sublime
that no words come to you,
only raw and vast
emotion, which vibrates
through every cell
and calls out to the great unknown
with uncanny familiarity.
