When we raise our voices together
in harmoniousness
or some facsimile thereof
making joyousness, we align hearts
When we all face North
(or East or South or West)
Moving together as one
In a line dance of longing
and gratitude, calling the Divine
we align our spiritual focus
When we sit together in silence
open receptacles ready and waiting
synergistic energy arises
as we align body, mind, and soul
Emotive nonsense
tickles my fancy
so, I do a little dancy
waving my arms
You can be silly
and play willy nilly
while the full moon plots
to whisper sweet nothings
The pool is full
and it’s spilling over
Oh, we’re silliness lovers
and that grape got away!
Two words must be relinquished
to know peace
“If only…”
I accept what is
I am joyous now
Like cavorting dolphins
they flowed through life
seemingly carefree
With unabashed abandon
poking at turtles
and elbowing whales
…………………………………………
Exuberance abounds
in my heart of hearts
When we allow our little kids
from the inside into outside
to cavort and play
