Animal Spirit

A Poem by Jo Zapata

Me

            Animal Spirit

 

Like the hawk,

    My wild spirit soars above

    those who are earthbound.

    I turn, flow, dance on the air �"

    jubilant in myself as I am.

 

My environment sometimes temporarily

    grounds me, but I bide my time �"

    knowing I will once more rise above

    to be free to savor my power,

    my grace, my oneness with all that

    is as I am.
