Spontaneity

Walking on the dirt byway, stumbling upon a green forest highway…   Pragmatism 
would say, “From this dirt path do not stray.”   Curiosity abound, I follow the 
majestic eagle flying high above the ground…   As I follow my flying guide, through 
the forest I did glide…   Trees full of vibrant leaves, animals resting within its 
eaves…   As I take this beauty in, a piece of me I did not know, comes alive and 
quickly grows…   Underneath this old elm tree, recreating who I know myself to 
be…   My new roots bury deep in this fertile ground, sprouting love lilies all 
around…   My fresh scent attracts the bees; pollen rich spirit feeds their life’s 
needs…   I look for the eagle to find my way out…  Emerging on the path I started, 
free from fear and doubt…
