Elation

Go to Wayne Levin's Site to see much much more.

the first time you take your hands off your bike's handle bars
a spring day rope swing, blistered hands
sledging on a snow-day
running from the police

mitching off school

sneaking into the castle and abandoned houses

shoplifting
cliff jumping during the spring high tides at three cliff's bay

the first time you tell an adult to rightly, 'get fucked'
getting the cardigan bay reef, with just yourself and your mate

running naked through the night streets

push ups in the february shore break

sleeping rough in strange cities

reading the mind of a complete stranger on a wild night out

dancing madly with a three-year-old around the living room as books bounce off the shelves and ornaments come crashing to the floor

catching a glimpse of your love in a spell-binding light
just going with your gut

that fleeting understanding of your place in the cosmos
not saying much
living
