On the street where I live

I live on a street where

silence calls 

loudly 

"Come sit here.

Quietly. 

Listen."

I live on a street where

I am

Myself. 

No

Pretense.

No 

Dissembling.

I live on a street where

Beings 

turn inward,

looking to the soul

for

Nourishment

instead of running to

MacDonald's to fill the

empty reservoir.

I live on a street where

Light dazzles 

and 

Music is in the breeze;

where 

Joy takes each by the

Hand 

and says

"Time is short.  

Live 

with happiness. 

Ecstatic

happiness."

I live on a street where

Experience speaks 

of

living, not in 

half-measures, but 

Fully.

Fully committed. 

Fully dedicated.

Fully alive.

I love on the street where

I live.
