Somewhere there is a place of tranquility...a haven of peace and beauty, I believe that is where nature is made. I will drop the materials that drag me down and spend the day with a butterfly, passing over gardens and bathing in sunshine...this is where I truly belong. Sunshine breathes a feeling of contentment and life but still darker clouds loom close by. I take a dandelion and blow away the awaiting life...giving a chance. But someone, somewhere is crying....
Reaching out into the void, I feel a sense of adventure. When did the word 'spontaneous' disappear from my life? I think maybe lost, although I wake every day hoping to find it again. I grapple with the 'mundane' of everyday life; the faceless commuter reading his newspaper, the skateboarder who knocks me into the kerb and wonder, do you see me? Reach out and touch me, I am here and I see you. Sit a while and watch with me the beauty of the spider weaving her snare.
I hear repeating beats from your electronic device and I know, you love to dance. Come dancing with me...we will sing our tune together and frighten away the birds. Take a moment for being nowhere for it is in nowhere you will find yourself. An abyss of empty; possibilities surrounding you and waiting for you to open that door of wonder. Be not afraid to step into the unknown...use your magic wand.
I look at you and sigh...such a beautiful creature, such a miracle of life and I ponder, did you smile today? Did you reach into your 'happy' vat and take a piece for a stranger to see? Did you save somebody from a day of low? I think so...I can see you. I hand you a book and as you open it you see it is empty...this book is for you. Make of it what you will but fill the pages with your dreams...and make them happen. You 'are' the 'Open Book'.
