Prologue


Little girl,
    with wild
                flower 
             hair.

Paint and dirt and sunshine
      scattered across your face;

       laughter tangled in your dancing feet.

Gazing in anticipation,
               waiting for the first inhalation of daybreak.

           Little boy,
        with
  dew-kissed 
     skin.

Moonlight and starlight 
     sparkling from your eyes;

                  music entwined in your embracing arms.

Staring in wonderment,
              waiting for the last hush of nightfall.

Precious YOU!
    Full of sweet
              possibilities.

Light and dark,
               before and after,
                                  never and always,
            flowing all around you.

Adventure encapsulates your soul.

     We lean in.
            
            And....

"untitled" 8.29.11, 11:18p.m.

When death is imminent
and darkness looms
We can let go and face
    the night with adventure in our hearts
with light inside our soul

When misery floods
    our very gates
and despair howls on our doorstep
We will stand with laughter on our lips
       a song within our eyes

People will see this
  and some will say,
"That gives me hope,
     to go on another day."

Others will look and declare,
  "What the FUCK are they on?"

Still others will understand
    and join in the adventure
the light, the laughter,
         the song

in a show of solidarity
    to the
indomitable human spirit
that drives us to go on
