Self- Discovery

Wobbly, these feet… sagging on miles of dangled reeds: a hike takes me to an attic of moonlight, bestowing bows of serenity prayers for wayfarers unyielding to a precise compass of direction, reckless as it were, losing the self to gypsy stones and nomadic thistles bearing my trails... for a moment, I release this soul buried in the belly to a chorale of air's hymns taking flight unto a trail of obedience moved by pure lightness: no longer a weight or content divided, but equaled by forms of singularly whole reminisces... )* *.))

Nette, it was easy to get lost in this meditative metaphor. After several readings it still draws me in to question my purpose for being. Thanks for participating in the contest.

I see a bit of myself in you-- the journey of self-reflection and maybe, immersion into a space that dwells inside. Very few can capture this moment in living poetry!
