MAY LIFE GREET YOU WITH A KISS
My darling, you –
wherever you are,
whoever you are,
I hope today
life greets you
with a kiss.
I hope you notice
how the wind blows
to caress your skin,
how the leaves on the trees
sway in excitement,
overjoyed to see you.
And I hope you hear
how the sun whispers
that a rainbow
holds a thousand shades of hope.
My darling dear,
they say,
“Live in the moment,”
“Choose to see the good.”
But I know –
we, in our humanness,
are eternally sailing
between past, present, and future,
our emotions rising and falling
like unpredictable waves
on life’s ocean.
Too often, we miss the chance
to bathe in the essence of
the eternal moment.
So today,
I don’t want to make it your work
to choose what you see.
I hope life itself
kisses you so audaciously,
so dashingly,
with its wonder
that nothing is required of you.
May you be kissed awake
to the beauty of yourself.
And perhaps, tomorrow,
you’ll open yourself to yet another kiss,
one that awakens you further
to the beauty of the world.
And the day after that,
you may be the one
to send a kiss out
to beautify this world.
It would be my joy if you share this poem as a kiss of life with whoever you heart desires. We all need life’s sweetness and a dazzling kiss.
MUCH LOVE + KISSES + JOY,
Rose
