May you feel peace in your toes.
May you feel strength in your feet.
May you feel confidence
in your stride, and joy
in every breath

This moment belongs to you.
This is you as celebration.
This is you as recognition
that every one of your steps
is met with support as deep
as the earth, and what you reach for
rushes to meet you

The fact of your substance
can’t be hidden any longer.
You’ll feel it rising up
more and more each day,
creating the bridge
that closes the gap
and lets all of heaven bloom forth.
