Mother’s Gift

Listen to the heart

As it brings the blood

Energy flow, infinite

Nerves that flame

On endless breath

Release constraints

Settle inward

Upon the stone

Listen closely, silent

Water drips

Into your palm

Replenishing emotion

Focus down the spine

Dig the earth deep

Bring her life upward

Fulfill the breath

In long exhale sweet

Flex the soul to relax

Sit in the center

Let air embrace you

Light, buoyant, and free

Replenish the spirit

Ingest the giving life

Quietly sip her bounty

In her bosom

Is repose and peace

Mother’s eternal gift

Even though it seems a reversal of logic, moving the focus inward, allows us to connect with what is outside us.

Soaring Into Everything

From the apex of the crown

Footprints of ages swirl in cosmic prism

Whirlwinds, vortexes, nebulous fountain

Starting from here to forever

All is one, and one is all

Searching in stardust debris

Thoughts like incandescent highways

Soaring into everything and nothing

Quiet reflection, inner journey begins

Reaching forever outward

Through footprints elucidation

Finding the universe alive inside us

Meditation, contemplation, and sitting in the quiet of release, I sometimes imagine the stream and flow of emotion as it moves into, through, and around me. It is a personal and unique experience for everyone who tries it and the feelings are hard to express.

Energy Stream

Digging in, earth keeps holding

My rooted spirit, grounds in deep

Phantom spirals, energy’s purging

Upward, outward, seeking truth

Aligned in current, my essence tingles

Crowning, opening, seeking high

Allowing truth to helix downward

A spiritual waking, one third-eye

Flowing outward, farther still

My mindfulness feels eternity

Infinity flowing, while rooted deep

Alive, awakened to ONE

The between, for me, is a total state of being. Where I am connected wholly to myself in a second of space, but can see, feel, and experience the infinity of the universe that I am a part of.

The Between

On the edge, I stand on a line

Between the land and sea

Each side stretches on unlimited

Both aligned in space

For a second twixt the in and out

I find a solid peace

Where consciousness stretches

Upon the peripheral

And I’m rooted in between

It is a place of being

Wholly cognoscente

Of who and what I am

Firmly whole, caught in a second

On the line between
