My Poem “Apricity”

I have always been able to feel
and appreciate the energy
that surrounds me...
I have always been able to
subconsciously see
the spectrum of colour
that everything and everyone radiates...
I have always been able to hear
the music of the spheres -
the cosmic symphony
that the stars and planets of the universe
play every instant of every day
as members of the eternal orchestra...
I have always been able to assimilate
the knowledge of someone,
something, or somewhere
simply by reaching out
and touching the ever-present spirit
that everyone and everything
emanates and leaves behind them
like some kind of echo of their aura...
I have always been a believer
in the importance of obligation -
to the people who matter to us,
as well as to the place where we call home...
I have always been a dreamer
and someone with an imagination
that daily refreshes itself
with new hopes and dreams
for the future...
I have always been someone
who has always felt connected
to something greater than myself -
which is probably why,
even when I am seemingly by myself,
I never feel alone,
and I always feel love...
I have always been someone
with an instinct that allows me
to be able to look
and listen to someone
and instantly know what mechanism
drives their internal desires...
I have been someone
who has been able to take a walk
on a summer's day,
or stop and look up to the sky above
on a winter's afternoon,
and feel instantly inspired,
revitalised, and uplifted by the
"apricity" of every moment -
as if I am being remade every time
by the extraordinary feeling
of the sun upon my skin.
