Grounded

Shake and shift
The sound of a repetitive bliss.
That is the radio playing there
As a steady breeze moves through my hair.
I am traveling towards
Whatever takes me in.
I move forward.
I look onward.
The sunlight dances on my skin.

Rising up,
Breathing in,
I lay in the warm grass.
I'm trapped in the heat of it.
Grounded at last.
Let me feel my own self like this.
Those eyes,
The way they look,
What do I see that cannot be spoke?

Dancing now,
Elemental movement bound,
Let me fall in love
With the rhythm of this sound.
In the presence of the deep
I dip into the rush
It cascades over me
And this glistening feels good enough.
What is present?
Dripping from my fingers now.
What is heaven?
The essence circulating all around.

I go in,
I go under,
I am but a speck in the slender.
The way you touch me
Makes me feel like
I've finally found enough.
Your whisper moves down my spine
The good kind
Of speechless hush.
The parting of the forest
Was the edge of my forever moment.
I honor it
As if I had always looked for it.
