Alive

 

Alive in crystalline vibration

Rainbow refractions moving

Cellular makeup excite alive

Vibrant life in light exquisite

 

Sunbeams electrified psychic

Spirit’s infused with delights

Mind expanding will include

Life extraordinary enlivened

 

Boundlessness soul explores

All universal mysteries alive

Drink in deeply life’s nectar

Mix all the bitter with sweet

 

Drinking up cocktails of life

Mixes joy and pains sweetly

Defying attempts to describe

This taste of enlightenments

 

Swishes in my mouth slowly

Savoring intensities of flavor

The light with the dark blend

Bitter with these sweet create

 

As satiation finds fulfillments

Consuming every single drop

All tastes are simply accepted

Integrated into sublime flavor

 

Drunk on beauty tasting edgy

Sharp notes with smooth flow

Tramples fear and inhibitions

Experience igniting life’s fire

' Vibrant life in light exquisite ' ..

those five words truly sing to me, they're beautiful and true.

Have read this over and over, think of it as you listing the appreciation for, and, awareness of everything around you. The sorrows and joys, the nights and days. You miss nothing, you accept and learn from the Now. But, you've been and you're going, and somehow, utterly content.

' Sharp notes with smooth flow '
