Truly
by Tricia Baehr
Art by Junior Mclean
I want to run
I want to dance in the wind
I feel the energy
It is swirling around me
In all the colors of the rainbow
the light around me is golden and sparkling
the grass is bright green like that in a cartoonish landscape
the birds singing, proclaiming our joy
time is illusionary
I have stepped out
of this self
and watched the dance and the running
I have listened to the joyfulness with ancient ears who have heard
things unimaginable
I have felt with a heart that does not beat or pulse with red red blood
I have known fully in this soul of souls
what is truly truly truly true
