Just For Tonight!

[Mika]

Just for tonight
I don't want too ...

I don't want to
have to think
I don't want to do
I don't want to have to
be civilized
and disciplined
or intellectual
or problem solving
or concerned with matters
that have no answer

I just want to BE!

To be at oneness
with earth
To be still
with the moon and stars
and the whispers
of the soft night air
and the quietness
of tranquility
serenity and peace
around me

To commune in solitude
with the grass
and the dirt
and the flowers
and my garden
and all growing things

To commune in gratitude
with the hearts of many
beating in unity
connected to all as one

To hear the beating of the drum
and the hum of the flute
and the shake of the rattle
and feel the warmth of a fire
and dance round
in the circle

without guilt, shame, sin or regret

Just for tonight
I long for a simpler thing
where spirit is ..
just is ..
and we don't have to work
so hard at it
and all notions of
civilized society
fall away ...

and the mind goes quiet
and heart fills with joy
and our spirits
are at peace

Just for tonight ..
It's not just a dream
