Energy in Motion
Raw emotion
(energy in motion)
moves the planet
the universe, our lives
• • • •o• • • •
All emotion a reflection OR deflection
of the One emotion we call Love
Energy in motion
relating to itself
• • • •o• • • •
The motion never ever stops
Always and ever
infilling the eternal Now
Tomato Sublime
One spent tomato plucked late from the vine
still retains a semblance of a happier time
When Sun and water, soil and and breeze combined
to contribute to a flavor, oh so sublime
• • • … • • •
The juice it runs down the chin
a renegade seed upon the cheek
The heady tomato smell fills the nose
Oh, gosh, a fresh tomato tastes fine
• • • … • • •
Summer is headed toward waning
some leaves are thinking of browning
Still, tomatoes are harvested everywhere
going out now to the garden to get mine
The Experience
Oh, it moved me
her song in earnestness
Yes, it moved me
It stirred me in my depths
clapping and dancing
we rose to celebrate
as it moved us
and the Song renewed our faith
Piano man
his fingers dancing
he was playing out Spirit
through the keyboard
and his heart
• • •
Experience
hearts expanding wide
We each sharing our Spirit
individuals in community
a conscious community of Love
Acting As If
Bragging as kids
we’d act “as if”
and many times pull it off

I have an idea
let’s give it a go
We can tape it together
cardboard and masking tape
Pretend it’s all fancy
and see it it flies…
Brilliant Star
Like bone buttons
on a dark blue velvet vest
we stood out with depth
As brilliant stars on a moonless night
danced across the conciousness
One tiny speck, all bright and blue
whirled and twirled
with uncommon shyness and innocence
And complete disregard
of looks askance
or references to misbehavior
For all her beauty
and heartfelt love shone
far brighter than the rich
depth of her worldly experience
I Am Peace
Remind me again
where’s the peace?
The piece of the universe
in which I inhabit
on any given moment
Where I Simply Am
all doing aside
That place which is everywhere
surrounding and throughout
consciously acknowledged
is Peace
A Better Place
It’s a better place, we live in
we breathe in, we create in
we expand in
It’s a better place
than even yesterday
because we are who we are
And you make it fun
and we’re real and we dance
through our challenges
With love
unconditional love…
Thrilling…
Highlighting the big Ta-dah!
or maybe the fancy schmancy To Do
excites and appeals in a positive way
Whereas, all the falderal
the adrenaline rush
of hyper-fearful fictions
The negative spin
the gossipy trash
seems to sell big
As it’s adding excitement
to the roller coaster ride called Life
JOY + FEAR = THRILL?
Shadow
The shadow of you
fixing your lunch
and all the morning ritual
As it was reflected
on the sun dappled window
shifting with the breezes
as they tickle the leaves
That shadow looked just like squirrel
wiggling his spunky tail
and standing on tippy toe
on the top board of the fence
Until I noticed the striped shirt…
Coyote’s Cry
Coyote once came sneaking around
sniffin’ a bit all about town
with a wink and a nod
prepared to get down
Sneaky, persistent, and loyal, too
Coyote knew what Coyote knew
and his tail waving high
fooling more than few
As the sun prepared to leave the sky
Coyote, well fed, looked in my eye
leaned back head and let loose
like a stylish young girl, his vivacious cry
