Flying
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!
Seven Years of Blessings
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.
Free Flow
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…
Dancing Bug
Little bug was so pleased
with soulful eclectic funk
he had discovered in himself
while preparing for the day
that he practically
danced right on past his destination
before he realized it…
Leafing Soon
Caterpillar tiptoed
careful not to put
more than one toe at a time
in the sludge
Nose in the air aloof
beefing up her arguments
“I’ll be leafing soon,”
she said to the wind
When, in fact, she knew
she’d best get on with it…
Road of Happy Destiny
On the road of happy destiny
wearing joy faces with pizzazz
our hearts are intertwined
in sentiment’s design
Whether we march or skip or leap
makes naught a difference
for the eloquent camaraderie
a snappy rhythm keeps
Intended by a promise
to keep each other’s company
It’s so much fun going there
and traveling home again…
White Hot Halo
Either a halo
or white hot wild fire
Hair flutters on unknown breezes
as he traverses the inner circle
winding up the altar of Life’s gifts
Passionate eyes ablaze with beauty
like shooting stars
riding on zephyrs of harmony
He is a vision of Shiva dancing
arms akimbo in directive gestures
grounding with each footfall
in gratitude for the Earth
He weaves the web of Live with voices
The song, Oh, the song of infinite Love
Such sweetness fierce
cracks open the heart with tears of delight
Next Big Leap
Little squirrel sat
on the branch
eyes squoze shut
“I DO believe I can,”
he repeated the mantra
over and over
as he contemplated
that next big leap
Do, Be, Have
and splendidly on purpose
Falling on Tasty Color
Made of overt color
capable of startling nourishment
through the retina
Banging on the door
of ability to perceive
It literally rocked stable concepts
with inexplicable aplomb
and a spattering of stutters
in shades of gray
——————–
Fed until staggering
by colors and hues
so vibrant, so thick
The taste of them
makes my cheeks curl
Ah, abundance of Autumn!
