When vibrations take you

And mind's no longer blue

The scene is set for love

And as you raise above



The muddle and chaos

Things which seemed lost

Then become another toss

Into the fire of passion's gloss



As new stirrings deep within

Remind you're no longer thin

For the fullness you now feel

Causes a new spin of wheels



And you step aboard runners

Which stick out from fun-ness

Clasping at this golden straw

Wanting to have so much more



Caressing thoughts and images

From all of the previous stillness

Which has kept you in much limbo

As you've been in depths below



Until exchanges have occurred

Which've made you sing as a bird

Warbling with contentment of life

For love has risen above the strife



And all the things you have been

Are now just parts of a past dream

And new awakenings have caused

A return to fire which has no pause



As fuel's spark ignites your very soul

And the full heart reaches out to call

Upon the soul behind the stark image

Which no longer is just a hidden stage



And you reach out with wide open arms

To hold and to grasp at those charms

Wanting to pull them deep within you

As you shake from head down to shoes



For this reaching out you've proffered

Hinges on mind welcoming the offer

Something you sense is indeed case

But only time can really trace ...
