Today, I choose to feel life.
To stand in the rays of sunlight,
And evaporate in its strength.
To step on the dew covered grass,
And be grasped by the soil beneath my weight.
To gaze at each creature roaming amongst me,
And be blinded by their exhilarant existence.
To fill my lungs until they can contain no more,
And exhale with hopes of fueling other life.
To close my eyes,
extend my arms to the heights of the sky,
And absorb the magnitude of the universe.
My feet may be stuck in an unwanted place,
My mind living in the clouds,
My surroundings moving in too fast a pace,
But today,
No matter the perplexity,
The earth and I share no boundaries.
*We are one.
I am one.
