Learning to Be

 

Peeling Back

Petals of my Self

i Discover

i am not who i Think i am

or what

i am Spirit

wrapped in animal

big cat... ego.

lurking, sleeping

waiting to strike

Being Present ... of the moment,

Learning, Accepting

who we All are

Spirit must accept ,

Embrace

and Tame the beast within

to See Beyond

the animal skin

to see one another's

BEING

to let go

to just BE.

Yes, and it's the let go and just be part that we humans can't seem to grasp like animals can, lol!! This was a nice release, a delicate breeze, enjoyed it.

Nothing better than a "Free" spirit to roam this earth....

Be always safe,

This is a nice piece. I especially like how you worked with capital letters, leaving the i in lower case but drawing attention to words like Think and Spirit. I would have liked to seen more of this, perhaps capitalizing Cat, or Accepting, etc. Great to see you writing again.
