Wait…
24 09 2013
dawn breaks,
mountains loom,
fog settles in the valleys of our existence . . .
We wait . . .
dwelling in uncertainty,
paralysis advancing,
peace a faint echo,
perception narrowed
hope’s longing reduced to embers . . .
Yet within the mist Mystery abides,
and if we wait,
Light dissipates the valley fog,
what looms, is redefined as beauty . . .
In the waiting,
Life rises;
Light dawns;
Again and again . . .
so wait . . .
please wait . . .

Divided Life
13 09 2013
Who is this frozen figure that stands before me?
A mirror’s reflection of what lies within?
What is this dark mountain before me silhouetted by loves light rising?
A likeness of the divided life lived?
Let this day dawn with the courage to risk…
courage to name the permafrost that encapsulates our soul –
may the melting begin…
courage to invite Light to break into the dark places in which we hide –

Hidden Rooms…
3 09 2013
What is it we hide in the secret rooms of our soul?
And What would happen
– not listening to the beckoning of fear –
if we disclosed what is closed?
Forgiveness?
Judgment?
Creativity unleased?
Failure?
Freedom?
Fear?
That we are truly loved?
What are we willing to risk?
How do we want to live?
What is our spirit’s longing?
