For October!

Usually awakened at dawn, I feel closest to the Divine Creator at that time, and adore feeling the sensuality of the sunlight engulfing me through the window.

Rebirth

Always a butterfly at sunrise,
I unfold still moistened wings to the gentle dawn breeze.
And from my heart and soul send forth blessings to the world.
I bask in intense stillness.
I feel it between the thoughts, and between the words of the thoughts.
I exhale this birthed stillness
sending waves of Its Light
to every troubled heart.
May the essence of the butterfly find them.
And they shall spread their moistened wings.

Kissed By the Divine

I stub my toes climbing the steps to you.
Joyfully I bruise them.
Even when I put on my finest dancing moccasins,
I scuff the toes.
Am I not lifting my feet high enough?
How high are you, really?

When I part the drapery to witness the sunrise
and feel the light-fire-heat,
I can’t look or I’d go blind,
such radiant Life.

But I feel your touch through the window,
And I hear you whisper.
Your attempt to move towards me is moving you away.
Be still.
Hold your breath for a moment.
Feel me.”

My Beloved.
You whisper…that I Am you. I needn’t look for you.
So I let you place your morning sunlight kisses on my cheeks.
And my heart yields
To the glow of our Oneness.

Sunrise Blessing

It’s as if I’ve waited my entire life for this very moment.
Nothing else matters.
I hold my breath and bow my head for The Blessing.
My breathing returns in shallow sighs.
Head back, eyes open wide to admit all the light I can,
And I begin to fill.
The heart of the young bride
Accepting her morning joy.
The new world IS here
In my breath, my eyes, my heart.
Let me be a joyful opening for God.
This young bride is given back her true innocence every dawn.
As a Life lover.

Prayer for the New Beginning

MOST BELOVED, ALL THAT IS:

We offer our undying love. For as we are within you and your totality also resides within us… there is never an end to our Oneness.

This eternal energy renews our every cell at every moment. We give thanks.

Our hearts shout of our love for you, most close and Dearest One,

“It is I, my Father!”

I trust the process of my unfolding and alignment, without a single doubt.

It is always perfect, because my heart is always yours. My mission is simple. To be part of the evolutionary impulse of the Universe! How do I do this? By simply…being who I am, my most authentic Self. Since that is YOU, my Most Beloved, it is a very easy task.

Thank you for letting me be here at this time to serve as your hands and feet. Let me feel your guidance. Stay close. I’ll stay open. We herald in the new earth vibration. We live it, Now. The waiting is over. It is here. Wherever people are choosing to allow it…It is here.

Let me never waiver in my resolve to know this. Wherever I go, like a magic being changing colors of the leaves as they pass by, let me paint the world in your true colors of radiant newness, a new dawn, the original dawn, the one and only dawn.

I pray and know this to be true from my deepest essence.

To your mighty most creative heart of hearts, I love you in every breath I will ever take.

Amen. And So It Is.

The Watcher Quits Watching

There is a point where the watcher quits watching…
And is just Being.
This comes one step beyond full awareness.
It is the rapture.
There is no separation,
There are no boundaries.
It is the door to infinity.
It is total release.


There is a story: If you want peace and purity, tear away your coverings.
A certain Sufi tore his robe in grief, and the tearing brought such relief
he gave the robe the name faraji, which means 'ripped open,' or 'happiness' or one who brings the joy of being opened.

If you want peace and purity, tear away your coverings. This is the purpose of emotion, to let a streaming beauty flow through you. Call it spirit, elixir, or the original agreement between yourself and God.
Opening into that gives peace, a song of being empty, pure silence.
from"The Soul of Rumi"

Only Cotton and Bones

When the monk tore open his robes,
ripped them from his body into rags,
it symbolized the streaming open of his heart.
There were raw and tattered edges to his heart, blisters where life had rubbed,
So he waited to receive the balm of blessed healing.
But instead, his heart took flight from his body,
saying it would be free.

If we want to feel the depths of life and the rawness, we will.
Some of us have to. Some of us will never look, because we know
we will lose all identity, all we’ve been before.
We cannot control our heart, try as we may with our mind, it has its own flight plan,
It knows its destination.

For when we offer to open the doors of our heart,
we offer to let it go free,
and in the end,
we are only cotton and bones.
