Solitude

The pulsating of my heart

awakes me.

I'm touched by nothing,

yet everything touches me.

Soft whispers of the 

spirits, in the trees,

in the earth, in the

sky, are my companions.

Warm life

escapes from the ground I walk on

and flows through me,

reminding me of who I am.

Who am I?

Gentle touch of the breeze

on my eyelashes.

A butterfly

kisses my cheek.

A current passes down my spine,

the sheer beauty

stuns me

into silence.

Stillness

in the movement

of life around me.
