Let sunshine kiss the numbness into feeling
anything and everything all at once
Let the sky and its indecision of today pour
certainty into streams of mental grief
Let the mountain rise calm steady beats along
the lines of existing beside it
Let the sea be the messenger and vessel for truth
never seen and echoes still yearned
Let the moon alter its course to form reason and
to bend the prison bars
Let the birds fly in formation of awe
to signify impermanence of this
Let the trees be the shamans, the gods, the healers,
to touch and breathe freedom
Let the wind carry and bury the stories and states
to wipe away and make a fresh
Let the stars know it all and explain it in parts
Let Venus shelter and experiment to bore
new realities and a softer touch
Let the plants and flowers whisper energy with every
change releasing elixirs to ascend
Let the insects arrive quickly, land safely and stay
while gleaning their prey
Let the clock be a tool to fuel hope and connection
amidst confusion and isolation
Let the skunks brawl in the bush their presence
firmly enforcing the fence
Let the snow slowly glow with its presence and turn
heated debate into cool surrender with cold acceptance
Let the rain arrive in stride with such pride
to alter and renew a clean mind, a hydrated heart,
and a wet promise without skew
