In a moment

When you are willing to look,

You will see.

In a moment

When you are willing to sit and listen,

You will hear.

Peace has always been here,

We simply make other choices.

Creation.

All of me?

I am revealing and revisiting

moments and memories.

Loving and releasing,

Creating infinite space.

Opening to the vastness and wonder of the now.

Love.

The cicadas are done for the season and I am grateful because

They make so much noise I cannot hear the rattle snakes which are much more dangerous.

I stomp my feet as I walk around anyway.

The Mullen has gone to seed as well so I do not wade in the tall grass as much.

Now the crickets are playing their songs,

Some louder than others.

They are so distracted searching for mates they do not see me and occasionally land in my hair or hit my face.

In the morning air I smell the approach of winter.

Once you allow yourself

To be infinitely immersed in

The divinity of your own soul,

All else dissolves into the stillness 

And you

Will begin to see

Nothing is what it seems,

Again and again.

Now awaken.

Peace.

The owl has moved to the tree outside my door again. i listen as he softly sings in the dark.

Candle light flickers on this fall morning, caressing the windows and walls without pause.

I look at my feet and think of all the places  near and far I have stepped.

My feet are not tired.

This longing to move, run, climb,

And dance never ending.

I feel the electricity move through my body as my feet feel the earth,

Filling my mind with wonder and my heart with anticipation.

I am on my way,

On my way.

She tried to leap with her eyes closed,

Keeping a tight hold

On to people and places dear to her heart.

Calling.

Writing.

Driving off the map, out of the planned journey.

But when she fell into this deep,

dark

Hole,

All she had

Was the sound of her breathing and her 

Heart beating;

And there

The whole world changed.

Sacred solitary immersion.

Falling yet floating in the unity of the universal

Stillness.

Blinded by the darkness she now sees

And all is well.
