Welcoming Summer
One drum, one beat, one heart
Thump
Thump
become light
embrace light
love light
see light
feel light
Listen to the drums, we are united as one
set forth your truest intention for a world
of peace
Thump
Thump
THUMP
Awaken, oh sleeping spirit to the light of a
new day
I am of the sky
I will teach you to fly
I am of the earth
to dreams, I give birth
I am of the wind
on branches thick and thinned
I am of the fire
breathing with desire
I am of the water
bonding, creating mortar
I am of the spirit,
mind and body
One drum, one beat, one heart
radiating into the universal
drum circle of life....
THUMP
THump
thump
THUMP
THump
thump
Awaken, oh sleeping spirit to the light of a
new day
author's note: I drummed at Sunset to
celebrate the summer solstice. This poem
was born from light.
Peace, light and love always....

Thank you!
I love this.. we should have a drum session online... summer solstice means for me that night never comes.
ReplyDeleteHi Bjorn,
DeleteHow many hours of daylight do you have? It sounds like I missed a fun gathering.
I would LOVE to do a drum session online! I don't have a drum but I have an empty coffee container that could be used as one.
DeleteNice repetition and onomatopoeia of the drums.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jenna!
DeleteLove this especially; " I am of the wind on branches thick and thinned/I am of the fire breathing with desire."💝
ReplyDeleteI can imagine you drumming and saying this out loud in a chanting refrain.
ReplyDeleteReally well done. Enjoy your summer and see you in 2 weeks. Take care dear.
I could hear your drumbeats and see the sunsey, with your spirit of unity rising!
ReplyDeletea beat all its own. more light these days sure isn't a bad thing.
ReplyDeleteThis poem was born from light indeed, and how my spirit drinks it in, thirstily. My words have gone quiet for the moment but will return, I trust. I love reading you, True, and thinking of you drumming the light in at solstice.
