Energy,
that unexpected flow of strength
flying from one to another,
like a string connecting all of us,
through invisible pathways
where we leave the power of our footprints.
Energy,
so present and so ignored,
running through our veins
to be spread out in the world
in tune with the beating of the heart
of that clockwork planet of ours.
Energy,
gathered in the smallest details
of our rushing daily lives,
which as whole are part of the big picture,
pieces of a broken mirror put back together,
that healing effect
of butterflies flying in the sky
with the ability to connect every single flower.
As if all of us we were only one orchid
in the middle of the garden.
There is so much energy around
that we do not even see…
Energy in the fingers of a grandmother
holding the hand of that new life
walking by her side,
looking at the world through her eyes.
Energy in every step performed
by the dancer making love to the music,
lost in the echo of her feet on the floor.
Energy in the waves of the ocean,
with a dog barking
not being afraid of the movement of the sea,
approaching and leaning backwards,
in harmony with the moon.
Energy in every single hug,
in those everlasting in time,
in the shortest ones to compliment someone
and in those coming from the heart,
from the will to share an extra dose of energy
to help other people balance
and look at their souls in the mirror,
without fearing their reflection.
Energy,
unexpected flow of strength
from one to another,
like a string connecting us.
