I, Caress
Tickling the leaves on the trees
How they dance with delight
I lift a strand of your hair
But do you hear my giggle
A touch on a bare arm
I lift the autumn colors
Swirling and skipping along
The concrete, the grass, the asphalt
In another moment I stream
Warm and soft light from the source
I part clouds gently and touch the earth
Illuminating the flowers, a branch, a patch
The top of your head and the tip of your nose
But do you feel the hum of the universal
A deep breath and I dive and expand
A splash of a gull and the lap of a wave on bare feet
I rush the shore again and again pushing pebbles
Mixing sand into my rhythm
It is elemental
This transformation
A remembrance of otherness
Free spirit takes any shape or form and connects
I, Caress
Life itself with a tender touch
My friend, I will never leave you without this I spark in the pit flames leaping radiant to the sky
One with the stars
Do you see me there in the fire while you burn inside
