Next Step? (December 25, 2007)

Paper – blank, smooth, inviting

Is so after a long arduous journey

much like the land below

fields, homes, rivers, mountains, roads

all signatures of the Maker


Fueled by sunlight, air and water

Rooted by and in Mother Earth

All held in the Infinite Space


The mystery of time

the illusory foe-ally!

The magic our human ability

to think, to feel

to read, write,

speak and reflect


Delusions of the pattern making mind?

Fed incessantly by the sensory apparatus

An old habit

perpetuated by civilizations since time immemorial?


There is a lot of shaking and moving

Thanks to the turbulence of “updraft” of rising air

The pen is not flowing (at this height?)

Literally and Metaphorically


The Unshakable sense of fatigue

The hesitant but growing expectation

of the deeper unfolding that lies ahead


The looking back brings awe and gratitude

Mixed with regret at “silly mistakes”

and “giving into fears”


The insights gained must be lived and shared

For the journey thus far to be worthwhile

and more significantly to enable rapid unfolding


This is the time

To let GO and let God

Drop all expectations

All thinking, planning

Just Be Love!!
