Newborn

All my life has been intense
Must be a good girl
Must make sense
No flights of fancy to take me away
And then I changed . . .
One day I looked around and saw
A world of wonder
World of awe
With love and passion and art and sound
And then I felt . . .
I peeled off the layers
Shed the skin
Ditched the prayers
Let love in
Felt it down to my very toes
I see it in colors, see how it grows
Put it on canvas
Take a picture
Feel it
Own it
Rock the beat
Taste the nectar
Sharp and sweet
Life takes charge!
