Every day you wake up and breathe
You are conscious and alive
A pulse is beating
Inside of you
Imitating music
In the key of life.
When the breeze blows you feel
Even though you don’t see
A spirit is present
You are aware
Your open eyes
Declare the world is alive.
An energy flows around you
Connecting everything
Changing forms
Nothing is separate
No one is alone
The evidence exists.
This universe asks so silently
What will your time here
Say you meant most?
The poetry of life goes on
And you are invited
To share your verse.
