Day Dance

By Cheryl Merrick

Filled with awareness,
my day dance begins

Stillness and Motion

Inside and Outside

Thinking and Doing

Self and Others

Creating and Maintaining

Active and Reflective

Being and Connecting

Feeling and Sensing

Dreams and Projects

Hopes and Goals

Experiencing and Analyzing

Nature and Technology

Experiments and Accomplishments

Deciding and Researching

Focusing and Gazing

Determined and Open-minded

Receptive and Resolute

Faith in action

Stillness in motion

Principles applied

Dreams realized

I dance through my day

spirit and body

mind and heart 

merging to create

the music of my soul
