Barefoot and Naked

Novembers full moon night

Not yet finished with the day, sipping wine as time ticks by

Darkness creeps in and he slips into slumber

My soul is restless and crying for more

Pour more wine into my glass

Strip my body of clothing, wrap a blanket around me

Glass of wine in right hand, holding the corners of the blanket with my left

I step outside into a grand mountain space

Barefoot and naked

The clear, vast night sky

The light of the full moon

The glowing Milky way

The dancing stars

Gleaming

The crisp, cold air

Sky above me

Earth underneath

I am grounded

I stare in awe at luna, the galaxy, the stars

They stare back

I cry out to the universe

She cries back

I scream to the universe

She screams back

I beg the universe for good days, I thank the universe for the bad

She smiles

Luna pulling me closer

The foothold she has on me

Strong 

Loving

Passionate 

I am trapped in her gaze

I surrender to the force of her energy

Warm tears of love and admiration roll down my cold face

I am grateful

I am love

Luna’s energy radiates throughout me

The universe surrounds her energy around me

My soul is quiet

I look around me and see beauty

A grand full moon, the Milky Way, sparkling stars, a vast and clear sky

Silhouettes of pine trees and mountain ranges

I am grounded

Seconds turn into minutes, the minutes turn into a long hour

My soul is being held by the moon and the universe

I feel warmth inside me

I feel love inside me

I feel whole

As I enter into myself again

I feel the cold earth sticking to my feet

I feel the cold air brushing my face

Holding a full glass of wine

I am grounded

I am love

Enter my warm home 

Weeds, dirts and pebbles cling to the bottom of the blanket

Shake the blanket and hear them fall to the floor

Cold body, I crawl into bed next to the man who loves me

My soul is quiet

My heart is smiling

I am grounded
