closing eyes, sucking in a deep breath, grasp the moment
rest for an eternity, lasts but half of an instant
and i lift my foot, and immovable thoughts move
beating heart, rustling leaves, shuffling foot
and i stop....
time pushes haltingly as thoughts find rest
anticipation builds with the inertia, unstoppable
glimpses pass briefly, quickly, mind's canvas, memories
hum of the angels enters through the mind's touch
and i move....
beating heart provides the beat of the dance
songs find synchronicity; breathe in, step forward
waves of love from angels blend with the sound
foot falls, heart beats, breath expelled, leaves rustle
and i stop....
and for one perfect instant of holy loving calm
all the world is asleep, angels and me, all that remain
and the next perfect instant, symphony of the dream
step, dance, feel, love, breathe...
and we dance....
and we sing....
me and you and a few thousand angels....
moments of emptiness, end of sleep....
and we move....
and all is love...
