SUN BATH  (4-16-97, Courthouse Park, Galveston Island, Texas)

   
bath    
of love    
bath    
of life    
western skys    
leaf filtered    
sunsets    
radiant bath    
of light    
still    
presses in    
upon    
me here    
through    
these yielding    
treetops    
to slowly    
drink    
me in    
as    
my mind    
surrenders freely      
to each    
flowing    
fleeting    
golden
moment    
held here    
in this    
silent glow    
of suns    
warm    
loving hands
all encompassing   
healing light    
which stretch    
my awakened    
senses    
more widely    
open    
as i    
pause    
elated here    
upon this    
living plane    
of somewhere    
semi green    
in between    
it all    
to    
free myself    
from thought    
so as    
to    
more deeply    
drink it    
all in    
in return    
to    
more fully    
savor    
its glorious    
ripe    
radiant    
heart filling    
essence    
for as    
long as    
its magnificent    
illumined feast    
lasts here    
in this    
tranquil park    
on this    
reflective    
afternoon    
or wherever    
i may    
be    
or am    
anywhere    
at any    
given place    
or time    
upon    
this living    
earth    
i ll forever    
surrender freely    
to these    
sun filled    
skies    
these    
moon lit    
star filled    
heavens    
touching us    
from above    
in wonderstruck    
humbled    
reverence    
and awe  
wholly attuned  
in lifes  
living light    
time    
and time    
again
