When pondering peccaries
or the curly taste of prickly pears
the mind’s eye view may broaden
New vistas of delightful things
open up the scope of understanding
or, at least, a bit of insight
===========================
Cut to the truth
like a javelina’s tooth
Let the spiky spines
of honest instrospection
be chewed up
along with the rest
Bold feelings energized
by luscious experiences
Each day of life packed full
of whole-hearted living
We relish the little things
and expand for the huge
Going with the knowing
whispered in silence
and shouted on the wind
Hey there, fellow traveler
thank you for the companionship!
Perhaps I’ll fly one day
when my brain is so aligned with Spirit
so that I sprout wings
of angel-like quality
In the meantime…
always in my dreams!
On the path to Nirvana
in the world of mundane
There I met a traveler
with visions much the same
The more we shared our stories
and lessons we had learned
we discovered mutual interests
as well as bridges we had burned
On the road together
for oh, so many seasons
my love for you just gathers
for quickened hearts own reasons
A blessing in this lifetime
My joy with you keeps growing
I’m grateful for you, my partner
and for listening to inner knowing

Today we celebrate 7 years of marriage. We have been recognizing that a lot of life’s cycles run in 7 year increments so we have been consciously defining the changes of our relationship, and thereby experiencing a great deepening of the richness of it. Happy anniversary, my love.
Every moment
is a miracle
Breath in
the free flow of Spirit
bringing miraculous life
into and out of existence
Breathe out
allow yourself to rest
in the cradle of life
the moment of peace
Today, I breathe Life…
