Taking First Steps


Taking First Steps


***


Your smile sunlight 


Awakening dawn sunrise skies


Your gaze touches my heart


Opens my eyes


Your presence not fixed  


Spaciousness


Flowing rivers seas


Beauty comes from


Within your heart


Your love sets me 


Free


*


Your innocence


Sings a song


Spontaneously 


Holding me 


*


Your voice soothes my weary mind


Your gentle melody washes over me


Warms my heart once more i feel alive 


Spirit blazing 


Love from the


Inside


*


I make offerings 


Friendship 


Love


Bliss


Grace


Gratitude 


All I offer up to you


*


Knowing you abide 


Inside my heart


Knowing your love


Comes from within


Abiding in our joy


*


You empowered me


Taking my first steps


On this path


No looking back


Beginning


Anew
