I tap my feet
to my own beat.
I move around
on solid ground.
I step on land
not on quicksand.
I make mistakes
but never break.
I form techniques
for what I seek.
I do not speak
words that are bleak.
I catch the ball
my goals befall.
I hardly wait
or hesitate.
I try to touch
but not too much.
I expand grace
but do not chase.
I search inside
follow my guide.
I emit light
make dark paths bright .
I like to live
life judgments free.
I know that you
are one with me.
I build a life
with my insight.
I choose the views,
paint joyful hues.
