How beautiful people really are,
when we strip away the teflon,
discard all of our preconceptions,
we allow the door to open rather than
having to listen from behind …
we stand before one another as we are,
without any pretense.
Have I mentioned how easily forgotten
can be that glorious catharsis
when suddenly the world seems right,
with a spring day,
a hot summer morning when Earth’s energy motivates
our own physicality,
that heart and soul of who we are
to bless ourselves without favored denomination,
and simply live, breathe, and certainly
love!
