there is a place

there is a place i have seen and felt, if but momentarily. it isn't a place i can find and pinpoint with the accuracy of a GPS. it isn't a place i can actually touch and mark physically. although, there are things that can come as a result of being in this place. for me, a painting, a drawing or a photograph may result. for others perhaps a song of words or notes, a sculpture, the design of an edifice or the details therein, a poignant speech or the written word. this place is somewhere i long to be but time and the chores of life hinder. sometimes it's my own selfishness that limits my ability to remain in this place. i know this is a place i need to find more often.
