Being
LeTricia Rennee Foreman 1982 (San Antonio)
I feel radiant when
the Sun is dancing on my skin
As I kiss the wind with my lips
A glimpse of a cloud drips on my chin
Listening to the sounds of whistling
in the wind
Captured by the breeze
Falling like leaves
Greener then the grass underneath my feet
Sweeter than the sting of a bee
A 1000 memories and dreams
That never really seem to be complete
If seeing is believing
then I still must be dreaming
Mockingbird singing
searching for the meaning
of
LIFE
