Senses’ Dance 

We are multitudes

 

  

If only we had eyes to see

beyond the surface

of an ocean too wide

to hold all our sorrows

encrusted in the depth of the sea

 

  

We are multitudes

 

  

If only we had hearts to beat 

at the rhythm of our feelings,  

raw and fragile—often untouched, 

invisible particles floating 

 

  

We are multitudes 

 

  

If only we had mouths to speak 

the Truth of our buried dreams 

lingering in an open soil  

where Deaths and Births await 

 

  

We are multitudes 

 

  

If only we had ears to sense 

the music of the Wild calling 

for us to pause  

long enough to become part of this dance
