“And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.” Khalil Gibran

Like a child at play
I imagine, I feel
Keeping it simple
Keeping it Real

Life is for dancing
For laughing out loud
For running up mountains
For gazing at clouds

Life is for shining
For catching your dream
A walk in the park
A glide down the stream

Life is for thinking
The thought that frees
A delightful adventure
With lightness and ease

Life is for giving
For sharing your part
An Apple tree loaded
A compassionate heart

Feet on the ground
Wind in my hair
I will dance
I will shine

I will think
I will give
I will Be mySelf fully
And magnificently Live

It It So and So It Is

Pace & Blessings

“And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.” John I:5

A light is shining bright today
A radiant glow, a beam
The shimmer of the vibrancy
Enlivens every scene

It’s golden and transparent
The dark of night dissolved
The rhythmic dance of particles
Illumined and evolved

The mists of morning disappear
Like tears, they wash and clear
A tapestry is woven
All Goodness does appear

There’s Beauty and there’s Joy now
There’s Peace that calms and breathes
Each atom pulses with the Love
Expanding, this light frees

For Holy Breath, inspired
Ignites this Spirit flame
A Fire burns, embodied
Within, for each to claim

The light shines in the darkness
Which comprehends it not
For it is No thing substantive
Dispelled when lit with thought

Now turning thoughts to Goodness
Now seeing with new eyes
Now knowing with full certainty
In Love’s light, darkness flies

It Is So and So It

Peace & Blessings

“Ye shall have a song, as in the night…and gladness of heart as when one goeth with a pipe…into the mountain of The Lord…” Isaiah 30:29

The secret place of the most high

A mountaintop within

We rise and Breathe the breath of One

Of  journeys that have been

The Infinite is leading us

A perfect Spirit guide

We walk with gladness in our heart

No parts of us we hide

And Oneness walks the path with us

A dear and trusted friend

As hand in hand we climb the heights

Discovering there’s no end

Now Freedom meets us as we rise

And lifted, we Release

We feel the Presence holding us

And soar on wings of Peace

The Radiance of Joy brings light

A warm and shining sea

We gaze into a world ablaze

And know Eternity

The secret place of the most high

Our mountaintop, our  One

We rise and Breathe the breath of Life

As Glad Heart’s song is sung

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

“Love is the whole thing. We are only pieces. Love is the sea of no end. We are a drop of it.” Rumi

A drop of the sea
A bubble in time
An Ocean of Love
Now feel the sublime

Afloat in the water
No weight and no pull
A sparkling Light
A life that is full

Love is the whole thing
Connections of Light
Infinite openings
Eternity’s Sight

We are the pieces
And we become more
With Love as our guide
Upon endless shore

A drop of the sea
A bubble in time
An Ocean of Love
Held by the Divine

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

“Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee.” Job 22:28

There is a Law of Life that moves
Through everything and all
And Faith is knowing that this Law
Is listening to our call

We speak with words that anchor thoughts
We speak with certainty
When thinking with the Mind of God
We speak Eternity

Our words reflect the Presence
Our words have Power too
Our words bring Spirit into form
Our words decree what’s true

We set aside the effort
We lay down trying now
We simply act in unison
With Spirit knowing how

No longer separate from the whole
No longer left alone
Reflecting Universal Mind
We speak and it is shone

Our words reflect the Presence
Our words have Power too
Our words bring Spirit into form
Our words decree what’s true

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world.
Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.” Rumi

Let Wisdom be your calling card
Let Vision read your Mind
Let Joy propel each action
Let Peace be what you find

Let Wisdom see expansively
Let Beauty paint your view
Let Grace move through like waves
Let Ease be ever new

Let Wisdom be the first
Let Patience ever-last
Let Goodness overshadow
Let Mercy take you past

Let Wisdom listen kindly
Let Happiness abound
Let Gratitude be showered
Let Love be ever-found

Be wise now, take the journey
Be steady and be true
You’re worthy and you’re ready
For change to transform you

It Is So and So it Is

Peace & Blessings

“Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles and the water is clear?” Lao Tzu

Do you have the patience

To let the water clear

To allow the mud to settle

To watch it without fear

Do you have the patience

To walk the extra mile

To follow paths less traveled

To open and to smile

Do you have the patience

To watch the flower bloom

To clear your mind of what you know

To always make more room

Do you have the patience

To babble with the brook

To silence all your stories

To take another look

Do you have the patience

To listen deep within

To hear the voice of Wisdom

To eagerly begin

Do you have the patience

To let the water clear

To allow the mud to settle

To pause and bring Life near

Do you have the patience?

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

“And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds…” Philippians 4:7

Peace Is filling every space
Peace is deep within
Cradled in its warm embrace
Releasing… I begin

Peace is ever-breathing me
Peace is speaking here
Quieted by its soothing voice
Listening… I am clear

Peace is opening the way
Peace is leading me
Guided into ease and grace
Following… I am free

Peace is keeping Hearts and Minds
Peace beyond what’s known
Opened Now, above all else
Trusting… All is shown

It Is So and So It Is
Peace

Peace & Blessings

“Despise no man and deem nothing impossible; every man hath his hour and everything its place.”  The Talmud

 The Time has come to waken

To Truths beyond what’s known

To latent possibilities

To dreams that have been shown

The mind a pristine canvas

To Truths that One Mind weaves

To Greatness and to Goodness

To All that each receives

The Heart a perfect chamber

To Truths Compassion knows

To Kindness and to Patience

To Love’s limitless flow

The Breath a deep connector

To Truths that Peace does tell

To Calm and to Serenity

To washing from this well

The Smile a demonstration

To Truths that Joy reveals

To Laughter and to Happiness

To showing how one feels

The Rose a fragrant symbol

To Truths that Beauty shares

To Sweetness and to Blessings

To waft pure Heaven there

The Time has come to waken

Despise no one nor thing

For Truth is ever Present

Let One Mind through you sing

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings
