take me to this place

"Let's wake up all excited, sand and rocks in our hair
from sleeping next to the ocean.
Let's swim in our underwear, fall into rushing rivers,
and paddle out before we're swept away.
Let's eat new foods because the labels are in
languages we can't read.
Let's cook over a dire with sharp sticks and tin cans.
Let's get lost on strange streets and pass the same
storefront over and over again because we're walking
in circles.
Let's find things we never knew existed.
Let's feed the ducks.
I'm saying hey let's run as fast as we can weaving
through people and cars and jumping over stuff
climbing hills and fences taking shortcuts hands in the
air laughing yelling screaming all the way until we're
out of breath sighing laying on the ground looking at
the sky feeling out heartbeats in our limbs!"

This. is. fantastic. What a powerful set of words. This makes me want to run in the wind and jump in puddles and scream my lungs out laughing and dancing through the leaves. It makes my heart soar and my dreams even brighter.
Thank you.
