Have you ever raised your hands to the sky and
shouted - with all the glory of your humanity?

Have you two-stepped in the living room?
Or
Been so lost you never thought you could be found?

Have you kissed translucent fingers
And cried over their existance?

Have you climbed a tree past twenty?
Or
Kissed through a windowpane?

Have you watched a glacier fall off the mountain top -
Crumbling, crashing into bits?

Have you ever fallen, broken like glass
And wondered who would pick up the shards?

Have you ever touched the earth and wondered who stood here a hundred years ago?
- or better yet what stood here a million years ago?

Have you forgotten the very thing you said you’d never forget?

Have you ever had an enemy who has become a friend?

Thanks everyone - I'm glad you all have...I haven't done it all yet, but I got a good start.

The only thing I was planning on adding was: have you ever let your cat hunt grasshoppers in the kitchen just for fun?

It's very humorous!! (letting one at a time out of the bottle of course)

Yes, I am a mom with a bug lover.
