And For No Reason

And
For no reason
I start skipping like a child

And
For no reason
I turn into a leaf
That is carried so high
I kiss the Sun's mouth
And dissolve.

And
For no reason
A thousand birds
Choose my head for a conference table,
Start passing their
Cups of wine
And their wild songbooks all around.

And
For every reason in existence
I begin to eternally,
To eternally laugh and love!

When I turn into a leaf
And start dancing,
I run to kiss our beautiful Friend
And I dissolve in the Truth
That I Am.

Hi Katie,
Since you enjoy writing and are a wonderful writer yourself I thought you might enjoy this blog. It's mostly for creative writers, and poets, but they've asked me to display my art here too.
