Mountain Retreat

I spend a lot of time contemplating

spiritual contemplation

God, I like when I can hear your thoughts

As clearly as my own

I like when I'm content,

giddy and warm in your arms

I like to smile and shoot rainbows 

out of my eyes.

And dance a little dance with my shoes.

I like to give tiny nods of encouragement

Make sassy observations and quips

I like to laugh. 

I like when I am filled and fulfilled

I like when I'm creative and hard at work

When I'm too busy to worry 

About being seen or judged

I like to dress up pretty,

But not so pretty that I can't belly laugh

without tearing a seam

I like to help people with their dreams.

I prefer to listen in group settings 

And shine in intimacy

I love steaming cups of coffee

And black forest cake with fresh cream

I like to make little notes about everything

I've seen

I like daring to hope and daring to dream

I like to be of service

Helpful, and worthy

I like to get my hands dirty

And get in the mix of things

I like to dive into you so deeply,

I forget about me

I like when my head drifts above the clouds

And I lose track of my feet.
