Rebirth

rebirth
awakening
once again to become
someone who sees, smells, tastes, hears, feels
the wonders around, surrounding beauty
knowing previously unknown, 
the world, your heart, my heart
without, within
rebirth

This was great! I love it when this happens. It seems like even the regular colors that one sees become brighter and more illuminated during moments of this rebirth. It makes me think of being transformed by the renewing of our minds. Nice work!

Thanks, J.R. I always feel this way as the days begin to get longer and the new year begins.

You did this well..We all need to be reborn sometimes... Especially when something inside us had died .

Thanks, Silent One. I thought I'd give this form a try, though this one is not on topic with the contest. Blessings.
