The shores of ibiza whisk me into their whimsical beauty

The magic so effervescent and all knowing

The illuminations come as speckles of dust

Of light

Of prayer

Of thought

Of magic

Of wisdom

Of knowledge

Of action

Of the ever changing vista

With my eyes settled into their place

Being the whole world with an amount of grace

With an ever watchful eye

Seeing time as it passes by

Hoping to dance amidst it all

Not missing a single second but rather thriving in it all

Life death

North south

Exhale inhale

Expand contract

But what lays

East and west?

Memory and hope

Expansive unconditional love

Spreading across the horizon

All the while learning what I never did in school

How to love

Becomes my topic of study

My field of expertise

My ever unfolding heart dream

Bleeding to feel

Any boundary an opportunity to heal

Any wall a graceful jump

Any rageful dream, a glimpse into what has been kept

What felt unsafe

Now becomes a sanctuary

Where all is welcome

All are welcome

My open house

My open home

Arriving

Where I began

Rewinding to move forward

Each step a leap

A joyous unabashed bounding towards life

Forward she moves

Like the grasshoppers in the woods

My feet move like the wolves in the pack

Allowing nature to wrap

Me into its gentle yet wrathful hold

Foraging my body for what it needs to nurture to life

Each and every seed, weed, root and weave together

The most intricately woven tapestry

That breathes itself to life

A living portrait

A walking piece of art

A beating, completing being

Just being.
