Invitation
I am The Now
Now and Now
Catch me
Witness the fireworks erupt
In a multitude of shooting stars
I see you tighten your grip on that wine glass
Drop it
Hear it shatter
I am that.
Lover,
I sprang from the earth as the Flower of the forest
My roots run wild, above and below
Winding its way down the earth, up the sun
Entangled in and out of a billion galaxies
I am the flower that bloomed.
I am the The Now
Now and Now
,
Bend and touch the ground
Let the sand caress your wayward hand
Let the waves splash over your wandering feet
Be here with me
I am The Now
Now and Now
This celebration is imperfect without you
Hear me speak
For i am the language, the poet and the poem.
Look no further,
Attempt not to read between the lines
For this is no metaphor
For today i have come undone
I am The Now
Now and Now
Allow me to be kissed
When your lips open and close open and close
Listen to the chiming of my anklet as i dance
As my feet touches the ground to your beating heart.
Jasmine dances to the music of the wind still rooted
This is that dance.
