To feel is to be

filled with the

potential of renewal,

for in feeling

we are really alive

and fully aware as humans

that shift and sway

and turn and go about

and surf on the waves of living.

 

But to stop feeling

and be numb in the

face of the beating storm

is to be filled not

with the waves of renewal

but with death’s early mournful call.
