Soul Invitation: A Book of Poems

By Casey Dunne

Soul Invitation

What if I invited you
to dance and laugh with the thunderstorm
on the edge of windswept bluffs
under starry darkness in the slivers of moonlight?

What if I invited you
to paint in the present moment
with ink and colors of gemstones
on sheets of ancient trees?

What if I invited you
to feel the clay beneath your feet
as you stand on mountaintops
and let the sun burn your soul back into your flesh?

I invite you to love,
to find deepest pleasure because you know pain
and chose not to fear it.

I invite you to believe
something unfathomably wonderful waits
around the curve of the river rapids.

I invite you to play
in the ocean foam and float beyond the horizon
into the place where time folds in on itself.

What if I invited you
to learn the secrets of the desert ruins
of fossils and bone shrouded in sands?

What if I invited you
to embrace all that you know and all you never will
as fuel for the fire in your belly?

What if I invited you
to heal collective wounds so that they bleed
into new life in the cosmic womb?

I invite you to open
when it feels like you are breaking
and allow your soul to shatter its way home.

I invite you to create
from the place between worlds you've opened to,
making music out of shadows and light.

I invite you to live
with your feet rooted in mud
and your mind flying through pink clouds.

What if I invited you to be?
