"angelic dance"
Our ancestors said that if one affirms, his gods do the same.
A child who denies his mother her afternoon nap will never sleep.
There is no smoke without fire nor egg without shell.
We are not alone.
Sometimes the more we look is the less we see.
There are much we can’t see with eyes of doubt.
But plenty can be seen with eyes of faith.
We are not alone.
We sang songs of old and present from the depth of souls.
They echoed our songs and dance above the Earth.
We dance to the tune of time.
They swing to the rhythm of our hearts.
We clap and shake to the ground and above the stools of stress.
They jubilate for the strength of souls.
We are not alone.
We are surrounded by forces unseen.
We are surrounded by witnesses unseen.
Our vibrations are echoed in the havens above and beneath the Earth.
We are one.
We are not alone.
If the invisible wall between us will be crumbled
by the killer wind of hurricane may be we can see the other side of the rainbow.
Like the graceful movement of the Ostrich in mating season.
The forces above and beneath celebrate as we sing and dance in praise of life.
Step right onto it, don’t look back, move your priceless body to the zenith of jubilation. Let go of yourself feel the vibrations of the Universe.
Close your eyes, feel the songs of time
lift up your heart, swing to the dance of the time.
Angelic dance.
