Child

I want to bathe in the ocean
exploring its murky depths.
Make me a child of the Water.

I want to soar in the heavens
breathing in the clear, cold sky.
Make me a child of the Air.

I want to run in the forest
sniffing deep the dark soil.
Make me a child of the Earth.

I want to bathe, to soar, to run.
Make me a child of the Wild.

-One of my more "hippie" poems, I guess you could say. For as long as I can remember, I've wished to be an animal. Anything, so long as I could get away. But I say too much.-
