Dance of Life

09/02/20 Leave a Comment

Honor the sunrise,
for it gives birth to the breeze
that carries yesterday’s fragrance
into tomorrow’s garden.

Keep company with the wild
for it is they who can show you
the paths that lead to
tame and quiet thoughts.

Dance to the notes
plucked by the heart,
as they keep dreams
from falling silent to the ground.
