Flow...

Warm and ripe

Limited by the lines on a page

Slipping... down down
till the shadows close in

Flicker Flicker
light to my heart

Resonate and release from me
Let it go -- Breathe Fire

incantations of novelty
Renew Reveal Respect

Mother is nature
Flow --- Flow out and beyond
Eclipses surround staggering heat

A world away

Covered in Darkness

Moving bodies ~~ An Early Rising
Late reverberations

Slight of pen, Larger than words

Speak louder than the Borders that keep you

Call out my name

Declare you know ...
It burns brightest
when least observed

Call me out

Draw it from within

Flow

Passionate Proximity

Self Pleasure
... and the shades of the Pleasurable Self

The calls of heat, crisp on a cool night
Howling to the full moon of possibilities,
the earth moves

Fresh, clean of worry
Knowing how deep you can go
Then seeking beyond

Passionate proximity with a pulse
Movement as release
Introductions of self
Rhythm Incantevole

Chiming in at the precise moment ... Live in to it to...
Make it Move

The power is in the creation from No Thing

Captivating Compassion Consciously

Ease in to the space and let go
Call it out to the stars and the light will answer

All pieces point forward

Set it free and be

The Key to Our Well-Being

Our society provides no curriculum or schooling on how to notice love or to recognize the many people who have transmitted its life-giving power. Most of us haven’t been taught that to receive love deeply and transmit it wholeheartedly is a real human possibility, that it can be learned, and that to do so is the key to our deepest well-being, our spiritual life, and our capacity to bring more goodness into this world.

So as adults, we need to become newly aware of the love that has infused our lives all along, to turn our attention to it afresh with the eyes of a child. To do so is to become conscious of the tremendous capacity for love that even now permeates our being—to open to it, to be healed by its life-giving energy, and to participate in its power to renew our world. We can awaken to the deepest goodness in ourselves and others. We can learn to recognize and commune with the blessings that have always been pouring forth.

All in All

When I look inside and see that I am nothing, that is wisdom.
When I look outside and see that I am everything, that is love.
And between these two, my life turns.

- Sri Nisargadatta
