A trip to the lighter side ... written October 15, 2008. In no way comparable, but inspired by a favorite work crafted by a hero of mine-- the great Maya Angelou, a phenomenal woman.
It's the way you fit so snugly around my soul
The way I'm able to wiggle my fingers and tap my toes
It's the feel of the hair brushing my face in the wind
It's how my soul takes flight when I open my mouth and sing!
This synthesis of synapses
that enlivens my five senses
breathes new life into muscle fibers and bone --
but a playful nature and a spunky disposition
is what makes this
house become a home.
Love this!
