Rhythms of Joy

People.
Smiles caressing.  Bodies beaming.  Eyes rejoicing.
Rhythm.
Beats inviting.  Intertwining.
Dancing.
Joy arising.  Rhythm beating.  People joining.
Thoughts.
Past and future. Separating.  Walls encroaching.
————–
People – rhythm – dancing – rising.
Waking from a deepened slumber.
“It’s OK” a voice inside me.
Breaking through the walls enclosing.
————-
Music – rhythm – waking faster.
Shattering the glass enclosure.
Freedom calls the joyful dancer.
Cruising on the waves of laughter.
————-
Does the gull consider falling?
Do the waves forget their swirling?
Does the ecstasy take pause to fear
As it flies through the rhythms of joy?
