Awakening

Today I want to feel inspired-
to dance with the sun
and share it’s fire.
I want to run
alongside the stream of life
shouting suggestive words
aroused by blood red wine.

I want to be heard
with this choir in my head
tuning up in my own voice.
(Should I sit quietly instead?)
Is it even my choice?

I want to see a sky so bold
it melts through my eyes
down into my soul
(I want to feel surprised
and lose control!)
to surf the crescendo
to enjoy the reprise
of my inner chorus
before the music dies.
