We’re about to be happy, energetic and glad
There is joy in the offing, so much love to be had
I feel so grateful
To have words and hands
Revel in senses and feelings
In all we can understand
We can paint our own picture, we can sing our own song
We can dance with imagination, we can rest inside the calm
I run with my passions, a smile warms my face
I sigh with contentment, memory fills all space
Serene and playful
I search for clues
Seeking few answers
Life’s puzzle will bemuse
I could worry each day
Force the silence to say
Destroy mystery with fate
Always look to escape
I feel so grateful
To have words and hands
Revel in senses and feelings
In all we can understand
I long to smell the ocean
To watch a hawk glide on
Witness a child’s amazement
And my own arise within
The wonders of thought and skin
They joy of thought and skin
