Dance with me,
Under the stars,
Across the plains,
Through the sequoias,
Hold me tightly,
when I just can’t.
Come with me,
to the edges,
edges of who we are,
who we want to be,
our best selves.
Take a chance with me,
for the rest of our lives,
smile with me in joy,
pray with me in uncertainty,
and miss me in separation.
Work with me,
to illicit change,
to grieve injustice,
to sit at the table
of the full menu,
of human rights.
Do life with me,
let’s find out,
about the mystery
of grace, and mercy,
and love.
Walk with me,
through my fears,
and hesitancy,
show me what
vulnerability means.
Dance with me,
Through the shadows of
what we might be,
if we, as humans,
would realize our
interconnectedness.
