I fall, completely open,   
   As though born anew,   
   Into the light - and hope   
   Into the good - and true.   
      
   Drinking into my spirit   
   Treacle of trails - and trees,   
   Vanquishing every fear and   
   Blessing the bliss - and breeze.   
      
   Looking in strangers' faces   
   With an enlightened smile,   
   With angels trading places   
   To be them for awhile,   
      
   Basking in timeless sunshine -   
   Standing, head full of stars -   
   Feeling galactic passion -   
   From here - and to Mars;   
      
   Looking at women dancing   
   Seeing their spirits bloom   
   Evening and night romancing -   
   Universe! I'm your groom!   
      
   I have become a poet.   
   That means, I'm in love   
   With everything I know, and   
   My spirit, like a dove   
      
   Soars in the skies and clouds   
   There to avail of light:   
   Sinful and yet devout -   
   In there I take flight -   
      
   Telling the world: Hello,   
   It's like we have first met:   
   What you are, I don't know,   
   But I do not regret   
      
   Seeing you as you're now   
   And as you're yet to be:   
   Great gifts that you bestow   
   Which I at last can see -   
      
   Universe! In your essence   
   Lives all that's good and true   
   And after all the lessons   
   I've come to facing you:   
      
   You, in your daylight splendor!   
   You, in your gorgeous night!   
   And to you I surrender   
   That I in you take flight!   
      
   Shine on me, heaven's beauty!   
   Hold and enfold me, earth!   
   Waters, by man polluted,   
   Will flow, clear, from their source -   
      
   Flowers and lakes and meadows -   
   Seagulls and butterflies -   
   Forms, silhouettes, and shadows -   
   With newly opened eyes   
      
   I see you in your essence;   
   And, as if born anew,   
   Rich with your incandescence,   
   I fall in love with you.
