Rebirthing Childhood

To abandon corporate slavery

and create a moment of truth

allows dormant senses to live again,

to know of a hummingbird’s stillness,
to feel the pine needles crunch beneath winter snows,
to hear the embracing stretch of pistils weeping,
to see beyond challenge in tenuous waves trembling,
to gently touch a pebble strewn beach once again

is to experience a rebirth of childhood,

where casting one’s fate to the climate of change

is to gather wisdom through ageless innocence,

and the wonderment of time’s nurturing patience.
