Dance!

The moment of enlightenment is at hand,
touch the sky with your heart!

kiss the breath of your being
with the laughter of the ages!

dance naked into the wild!

be happy!

I love this little Earth-child poem. It makes me want to run sky-clad into Summer forests, rejoicing in nature and enlightenment. Always, Cat

Dear Kailashana:

I really love this poem! It's also humorous to me, since you are asking people to dance in a wild, special way. I can imagine the conmotion if all poets at Neo would actually become illumined :) Thank you, my dear friend, you've just made my day. I'll start from now my own laughter of the ages. Sincerely, Hugo

I, like all poets, am

I, like all poets, am blessed/cursed with highs and lows. Even as I am blessed/cursed with being tortured by my muse. Sometimes abusing me, sometimes amusing me. I try to balance myself in joy and sorrow. It's a good thing I have bliss to rest my laurels on. Thanks for reading Hugo, Lyz & Richard, Cat. Thanks for playing along. Wink. ~a

Sounds like you wrote this right after a Red Bull. By chance you never had a Red Bull, have one. I trust it will help you generate more poems of the like. I love that you admit that balance necessitates joy and sorrow. Too much of just one or the other is like cement with not enough sand or not enough water. PINT : )

Ahh, Pint…. we have it

Ahh, Pint.... we have it sooooooooo wrong, don't we? We're already in Paradise, we just don't know it because someone tells us it's not so. We need to do 1000 different things first. Strange. As if there were a time other than now. Love. ~A
