I wave my arms and leap in hyperactive
reaction to any catalytic focus,
that cloaks the manic inspiration of my heart -
starting its own trail of irreverent merriment.
My very absence intrudes on their presence; when I'm gone,
their conversation demands my recall; my all
was given, and they want it implanted back in their midst;
rid of me, (missing me,) they eagerly await my return.
I burn my imprint on the memories of everyone I meet -
the complete society, right across its segments -
they beg my participation in the ritual daily
play, for the contributions I make - in levity.
They turn and smile no matter where I go -
like sunlight for a plant, it makes me grow!
