Delighted Face

So, there I was
caught in a summer rain
 
Clouds and mist to the left of me
rainbow on my right
 
My face delighted
washed gently by God
 
My heart filled up
every fiber tingled, alive
 
When I awoke
to the blessedness of the moment
 

Over the Hill

Over the hill of understanding
and through the Spirit of compassionate love
 
He stepped out from under
the fog of self-doubt
 
Into the brilliance
of inspired epiphany!

Peace in the Heart

Mouse scurried about
putting all his treasures
in their place
 
Keeping peace in his heart
even though
his hands were very busy
 
He noticed a while back
how good it felt
when he was centered

Sweet Surrender

Peace in my heart
begins and stops
in my mind
 
Until that exquisite moment
of sweet surrender
 
Then, it is timeless…

Good Stuff

Repeat the good stuff
as often as you like
 
That is
the total immersion
in life lived fully
 
With conscious presence
in the moment NOW
 
Uncomfortable or sad
joyous or bursting full
even irritated or painful
 
It's all Good Stuff
in full consciousness

Joy Switch

In a moment of power
he flipped on the joy switch
 
Out of sheer audacity
and courageous spirit
 
He decided
to leave it on
indefinitely…

The Longest Day

Gelled in her mind
a concept of summer
 
And the longest day
crept out her pores
like the dew of energy spent
 
"Ah!" she thought,
as they shuffled lightly
in song and dance,
"It is a time of life's abundance."

Symphony of Spirit

She leaped up effortlessly
spread her wings
And flew with abandon
to the symphony of Spirit
Playing brightly
on the early morning sky
It’s all so good!

Hollerin’ at the Moon

Yeehaw…how dee!

 

Out here in the West

it’s easy to engage

 

In just a bit

of hootin’ and hollerin’

 

At the full moon

on a summer’s ever

 

(Of course, it’s that easy, too, in the East)
