There is this leap happening inside of me
When I see others speak, sing, or dance their truth
It’s an inner overflow
An excitement springing from the same universal creator
Eternally grateful for your grace
Helping this child of the world rise up despite falls
Courageously love in spite of ache
And grow in the face of pain
So grateful for being given an education
Learning these ABCs, 123s
This sight to write
Grace given to construct my thoughts into creative human expression
Gratitude for these ten tiny miracles that have memorized the keyboard’s lettered spacing
Thank you for giving me words
Words to expand
To love
To create
To give
Because of you
I’m a spiritual fighter seeking this one true change
Hoping to use your language to become a wordsmith untamed
Seeking to use your words and countless graces to bow my thank you out loud
