i want....

sat among the trees this morning
instead of walking....

wrote a few things.

i want to really really live.
i want to laugh until my stomach tightens
so much that it aches and my legs hurt from
my slapping them.
i want to cry from my gut and let the tears
wash me to where i need to go.
i want to hear the singing of my heart,
and let the sounds echo inside of me
and i want to dance to that music.
i want to fill with compassion and touch
someone's face so gently that they can feel the
caring in my fingertips.
i want to love so deeply that my cells vibrate
with it and just standing near me you can feel
the buzz of the vibrations!
i want to know that i'm worthy and good and
i want to leave self doubt up on the highway.
i want to touch the sky and recognize my soul
in it.
i want to walk in the rain and drop to my knees
in gratitude for this gift of life i have
been given.
may i never ever forget what a gift it truly is.
