Exquisite bliss, unabashed reveling, <br />Stormy, breathtaking, exhilarating sky <br />Wind whips around, hair surrenders to the unruly <br />Thunderclouds and vibrant sunshine collide. <br /> <br />Skin was made to thrive in this temperature <br />Perfect atmosphere, I tremble with pleasure <br />Wind like this penetrates to my core <br />I am a sieve of nerves gratified. <br /> <br />An element added to the ecstasy <br />Rain hitting my face like the tinkling of china <br />I move without walking, or stepping, or running <br />The wind my own moving escalator. <br /> <br />A smile, sheer joy is mine in the moment <br />In selfishness, all things forgotten, <br />There is only me and barely that, <br />I am blissfully wrapped up and sealed insignificant. <br /> <br />Eyes closed, arms outstretched, <br />Receive the gift, for this is to love and live the life.<br /><br />Rosa Linger<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/elements-of-ecstasy/
