There is a rumbling below the ground <br />Only a few know what waits here <br />The awakening has begun <br />There is movement, there is understanding. <br /> <br />An eye opens wide <br />A nostril flares and senses <br />Limbs slowly stretch <br />A glow gradually moves across the skin. <br /> <br />Those who know feel a great gladness <br />They commence the gathering for the meeting <br />Minds are abuzz with questions <br />Hearts beat faster with the awareness of the delights. <br /> <br />The awakening is very gradual <br />There will be time to alert even more <br />The news of the immanent arrival can spread <br />Many more will feel the excitement. <br /> <br />As the energy and excitement grows <br />So does the strength of that which awakens <br />For the power of all fuels the awakening. <br />Now both eyes open wide. <br /> <br />The touch, the taste, the yearning <br />The desire, the ideal, the search <br />These are but a few feelings felt <br />As the intensity is magnified….<br /><br />Alison Smith<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/awakening-has-begun/
