is this the day
is this the day
to slide out of your shell
while the tide rolls into
the hollows of your shoulders
is this the day
when your skin blooms
like a mango
ripe to the silken core
is there a way
to slip past the trees
to where the air is laced with gold
can you carry it back
liquid, alive
does it wake you
breathing on your cheek
touching where words
do not go
is it time yet
make it so
to slide out of your shell
while the tide rolls into
the hollows of your shoulders
is this the day
when your skin blooms
like a mango
ripe to the silken core
is there a way
to slip past the trees
to where the air is laced with gold
can you carry it back
liquid, alive
does it wake you
breathing on your cheek
touching where words
do not go
is it time yet
make it so

Firebird, I think you are on to something.
For me, personally, I don't think that this is the day to do it. At least, completely. But I sense that day will come.
Thanks for dropping by my place. You're always welcome there.
Well, heck, "completely" is a feeling, not a real thing. A little bit goes a long way...
See you soon--
I thiiiik it most certainly is!!
