Soul Dance

Feel the beating, the fluttering of heart upon heart yearning to dance, cautiously shedding layers of protective armor as they approach. . .

Battle weary hopes, bruised from life wounds, spark from within the treasure chest of ourselves, fighting to be unleashed. . .

Common interests and not so common interests mesh together and separate again, in a quest for mutual ground to stand on without falling . .

Dreams hold hands and walk together, glancing backwards upon separate paths, then forward to one uncertain road ahead. . . giving hands, loving hands, soothing hands interlaced, each fingertip caressing the life of the other. . .

Fiery passion soars the sky to touch the splendor of a rainbow, floating upon the beauty of the colors, gliding downward where hearts may finally rest in the perfect softness of the clouds and of each other. . .

Joining together in this dance of beauty, honor, compassion and passion; strength, gentleness, determination and hope. . .

Trusting together in this dance of truth and sensitivity, of healing and grace. . .

Growing together, one heart open to the other without fear, in this dance of the soul.

Freedom Maze

The maze of a mind
Bumping into life corners,
Jumping the hurdles,
Overcoming barriers,
Avoiding the traps
Meant to snare.

Skillfully forging ahead
Fueled by desire,
Reaching for the prize
At the end of the race. . .

Freedom!
