The Songs of Solitude

c Self-melted, I’m calm, cool, composed, fresh, and energetic — connected to the whales playing in the ocean, the brilliantly coloured bird hopping on the branches of a tree, sucking the nectar of a juicy fruit, and the rising sun sprinkling hues over the snowy mountains and the undulating jagged edges of the Grand Canyon and Wyoming peaks. Floating with the waves, I’m in a dream state — connected to life in its numerous forms. I feel my bond with the infinite cosmos, like a tiny grain of sand on the beach frolicking and dancing with the roaring, rising, and falling waves.
