    About this ebook

    packing my bags in the early morning light, packing everything I will need for my journey in my old worn suitcase & walking out the front door & into the light of the newborn sun & into the light of the newborn day & walking off down the road carrying with me everything important to me / leaving behind luggage which only lays me down, venturing out to face myself & to find my Destiny / venturing outside the walls of the box I resided in / walking into the sunlight & off down the road, the rhythm of my footsteps echoing amongst fields & cities & flowers & the air around me, like music of passionate enthusiasm, the fervor of my heart guiding me from the shadows & into the sunlight ahead / venturing off so that I may find what I've always been looking for / venturing into the sunlight / just look at the marvelous journey ahead of me / a journey which has no end, & there is no limit to how high I can fly

    Dancing in the Sunlight is a collection of 40 poems.
