I fall, completely open, As though born anew, Into the light - and hope Into the good - and true. Drinking into my spirit Treacle of trails - and trees, Vanquishing every fear and Blessing the bliss - and breeze. Looking in strangers' faces With an enlightened smile, With angels trading places To be them for awhile, Basking in timeless sunshine - Standing, head full of stars - Feeling galactic passion - From here - and to Mars; Looking at women dancing Seeing their spirits bloom Evening and night romancing - Universe! I'm your groom! I have become a poet. That means, I'm in love With everything I know, and My spirit, like a dove Soars in the skies and clouds There to avail of light: Sinful and yet devout - In there I take flight - Telling the world: Hello, It's like we have first met: What you are, I don't know, But I do not regret Seeing you as you're now And as you're yet to be: Great gifts that you bestow Which I at last can see - Universe! In your essence Lives all that's good and true And after all the lessons I've come to facing you: You, in your daylight splendor! You, in your gorgeous night! And to you I surrender That I in you take flight! Shine on me, heaven's beauty! Hold and enfold me, earth! Waters, by man polluted, Will flow, clear, from their source - Flowers and lakes and meadows - Seagulls and butterflies - Forms, silhouettes, and shadows - With newly opened eyes I see you in your essence; And, as if born anew, Rich with your incandescence, I fall in love with you.
