I led a poetry workshop at the yoga farm the other day and gave the prompt to write an ecstatic  love poem to yourself, which was prompted by Claire’s intention of self love during morning asana.  What a radical practice ~ I think this resonates with honoring the divine light within all of us. please share your own self-love poem!  namaste

DEAR LOVER

Dear lover, you are moving
like honey through the world.

I love you. I am
ecstatic for you like the way
elephants come to water
to bathe all day
in the hot sun.

You are my water
I wait for you.
You are my fire
wood just sparks when you’re around.

Dear Lover,
you and me are one
we swim through the vast ocean
with strength, beauty, compassion
as the whales & the dolphins
sing their low songs
that echo all through
the ocean floor.

I keep waiting
for you to…
