Perfection
You know those beautiful summer nights. Where the sky is a gorgeous shade of persian blue, no clouds around to muck it all up. Perfectly clear, perfectly clean, perfectly blue. Nothing but the glint of far off stars in perfect white sparkles.
A cool breeze blows the heat of the day away, ruffling the leaves of the trees around you. Sounding every bit like a sigh of relief, as if the trees, too, are grateful for the breeze cooling their limbs.
Across the way, the moon, full and fat, and brilliantly white, peeks just over the top of a cluster of trees. A full moon, illuminating the blue of the darkened sky. As it crests the tops of the trees, it throws a shimmering spear of light on the water, straight at you. No matter which direction you move, that shimmering arrow follows, as if the moon were pointing you out, spotlighting you, waiting for you to dance and sing and otherwise entertain the night life.
I felt like singing and dancing. Standing there, with the love of my life beside me, taking in the beautiful splendor of the world around me. Wondering what I had done to deserve such intense joy, such beauty in my life. And thinking that Karma deserves a big, ol’ kiss.
That’s about when Karma “kissed” me back. I think that Karma can be a right mean old bitch, especially when one (me) gets a little too cocky in the world. There I was, gazing out across the river, and just beginning to think that I deserved such amazing things. When something jumped up and bit me on the back of the thigh.
Hard.
Yelping loudly, I spun around, only to encounter Master standing there, wearing that open-mouthed “Uh oh” look, and holding up His fishing pole. The other end of the pole? The “business end”?
Was in my leg.
Silently extracting the hook from my leg (ow!), I calmly and politely handed it back to Him. He then had the nerve to ask me if I *liked* it.
Um. Not so much.
Tonight Karma was in the shape of a big fish who snagged Master’s line, yanked it back like a slingshot, and shot me damn near in the ass. I settled back into the business of enjoying the beautiful summer night.. without the cocky. ;)
(Well, I don’t know about karma but Master really did hook me. And the way His eyes lit up when He asked me if I liked it was downright scary. I see fish hooks in my future and not because some evil fish spit it at me.)
(Also, Master bought me an mp3 player. w00t! No more talking to the dog. No more people thinking I’m talking to the cracks on the sidewalk. No more talking to the cracks on the sidewalk! Now to load her up with some walking music. Suggestions for music to exercise by?)
