To Feel Life...

...and for a once inept blue sky...

...to have sheltered my solitude so...

for it was not to chase a mere dream...

...nor  mere thought...moreover the excited

....feeling I once kept hidden...

...the feeling lay in wait patiently...

...like a cocoon butterfly...awaiting...

...one day to spread her butterfly wings...

her first flight to combat the journey...

to be truly immersed...in this the greatest

challenge surviving life...

...to achieve not a mere thought...

...not a mere dream...to realize the

feeling...to nature life is feeling...

to feel life...
