In this Episode, “Another Mile,” Bob A shares a personal free verse Valentine’s poem that gently weaves mindfulness into the everyday rituals of love and companionship. Drawing on his training as a Mindfulness teacher, Bob A reflects on how presence reveals itself in small, steady moments — texting poetry, watching the sky, walking side by side. This episode invites listeners to notice the quiet rituals that anchor connection and carry us through “another mile” of life together.
Another Mile
A free verse poem
By Bob A
Togetherness reveals itself quietly,
the same way each day begins —
As one, soothed with warm loving company
a small ritual that steadies me.
Texting poetry on the fly,
gazing into a cloudy sky,
we hold the hands of time together—
your fingers intertwined withmine,
where even the air carries thescent of pine.
Mere words try to touch the warmth
that lives just beneath the skin...
of you and I.
And still, side by side,
Yet we walk another mile.
(Another Mile poem is a Valentine’s Day poem for his wife in 2026)

Mindful at Sea Level is a short‑form mindfulness podcast offering poetry, reflections, and nature‑rooted teachings. Hosted by Bob A — mindfulness educator, military veteran, and self‑described Mindfulnaut — each episode is a brief return to steady awareness at “sea level.”
A Mindfulnaut is a person who explores their inner world with the same steadiness and curiosity a mariner brings to open water. They navigate thoughts, emotions, and sensations like shifting tides — not to control them, but to understand their movement and return to center.
Mindful at Sea Level Podcast is dedicated to the "Jack Russell Nation." We miss you dearly our friend and companion, Ike.
