Leap With Me Now: A Poem For You
Breathe with me now,
says the Darkness
In her most hushed voice.
I look to see
to whom she is speaking
but see no one else
but me.
Fly with me now,
calls the Moonlight,
soar with me
to far off lands.
Let your Lightness
carry you to the sea.
Trust me now,
screeches the Owl,
crying through the night.
As you hear me,
I see you.
Unwrap me now,
pleads Wisdom,
those quiet words
landing upon
my mind,
a last offering of
the day’s gifts.
Leap with me now,
invites my heart
as she yearns
to stretch farther,
to travel
far away from me
to her other Self, out there.
You have become
more alive
Today
than you ever were
by calling back
to the whispers
with a hushed:
I hear you.
With those three little words,
a cacophony of sparks
an explosion of happiness
for this —
the awakening
of all that we are,
You and I,
connecting
just for an instant
with all that is.
