“Standing Naked” by Charles P. Ries

I stand naked. I let everyone look into me.

My heart and mind are now open for inspection.

It’s good to be exposed, revealing secrets, so

words need not carry them. Revealing inner paths

so others can follow them in and down and out my

subterranean heart.

We should all stand and be revealed and naked.

Naked to truths and secrets. Naked before a curtain

of spring rain.
