We all keep reaching for something
to calm our nerves, soothe our skin and
make us whole

we only need to look to the sun for our nourishment
with it's blisstery wet rains
and high temps

for it is with this we are renewed and not alone
our skin sweltering in the sun and sand
while we play out our dreams and journeys.

keeping track of those that are near and dear to us
and trying to catch a wave to float on to the next generation.

wave goodbye to our past and when we enter the
tunnel we are in a new world.
It's much brighter there and slower so that we may engage
and flourish in it's mounds of joy and love.

reach out my friends and share this pillow of clouds with others
for it is with these things we reach.
