An Invitation

An invitation
To dance
To enhance
The lives of Yourself
And others
Newly appointed mothers
Who’s utters
Have been through the gutters…
I embrace Your stutters
Rejoice together like brothers
And sisters, don’t forget the otters
Cause they too have godmothers
Fathers
Tuck Your sons under the covers
And daughters
Kiss them on their foreheads
Lovingly send them out to meet
To seek
Reap from the wonders
Of life’s secret keep
Let’s sing once more
Touch each other to our very core
Let us commune with God
And one another
The most sacred of all places
Will then reveal itself
On it’s own

With excitement
