Bits and Sparkles
If you can’t run fast enough to escape the sticky paws of your ego, then stop, turn back and laugh at it.
You’ll see!!
Enjoy…
Sharp and shining
The blade is ready
For me to kill
My habits
Cracking shell
The skin opens
And lets
The blood out,
A stream of crying life
Being still
I welcome Silence
Which apparent emptiness
Is testing my mind
Will it cope?
When the mind is ready
To relinquish its hunger
For filling up the void
And accept what is
Silence is willing
To make its whispers
Heard
For they are not addressed
To the mind
That would eat them up
Noisily
They are aimed
For the Heart
That will sing along with them
And for the soul
That will create a
Garden out of them
Tears become laughter
Anger dissolves
I am left battered
By the wind of Newness
Be
Be!
Always be
Try not to do
First
Start with Being
Welcome your tears
Feel them
Thank them
And let them go
Punches
Hits and blows
Shaking
Shocks and stops
Shivers
Hurts
Wounds
Heart racing
Bitter tears
Altered breath
Rage
Devastation
No end
It all begins
Now
Deafening tearing sounds
From within
Sharp edge
The Void opens
Its arms for me
To perform the
Long desired fall
Will I?
Inspiration
My Man
My man has long hair
And graceful hands
My man plays guitar
And sings love songs
My man listens and laughs
From his heart
My man has long forgotten
To punch and hurt
My man always knows
Where the moon is
My man climbs mountains
And touches the sky
He walks the Earth
She is his home
My man owns little
But has all he needs
My man plants trees
And changes the life of many
My man is one of these new men
Whose souls are joining the Earth
In growing number
And bring in, for the best of all,
Their Powerful Softness.
Time Within
Time within
All is suspended
All is held up
Somewhere, somehow
The cold wind
Fiercely presses us
To remain indoors
Just a little longer
Just for the necessary
Time to reconsider
The plan and adjust
To the new path
One that starts
Within
One that wishes
To be deeply anchored
In the centre
In the heart
One that draws from its roots
The nurturing essence
Of its inspiration
Before venturing out
Spreading wide
To explore
Time within
Before the great expansion
Full of desirable promises
Filled with colourful visions
Of the New
To come and unveil
Wait...
Wait in peace
Trust in the right timing
Enjoy the dotted line
Skip and play along
While you wait
Now...
Listen!
No more howling wind
The high waves are tamed
The returning sun is changing
Their foamy dark greens
Into a silver mirror
Oblique lines on the horizon
Draw the curtain of rain
And reveal the next scene
Blue sky returns
Time within
Is gently fading away
Time for change
Is stepping on stage
The Journey Within
In search of the Light
Questing for the Self
Through woodlands and caves
Along the rivers and
At the core of mountains
On the heights
Or underground
We come across dark patches
Stagnant waters
Where unpleasant
Frightening, mesmerising
Encounters await
Ready to unveil
What we’d wish
Not to see
But yet…
A part of us wants it
Intuitively, we know
That we must experience
These encounters
To better know and acknowledge them
To better tame but not own them
They are the Mysteries
Acting as potent revelations of
All that is
Beyond our own will
They are the Guides
When it is time for us
To open the door of the Mysteries
Then we can gaze at them
We can face them
While avoiding to be swallowed up
By the abyss of emotions
They provoke
If, alert, we can keep
The distance that protects
While honouring
The sacred place
Where they lie
Then
We are given to
RECEIVE and KNOW.
Somewhere, somehow
Far
And close
I am not sure
Where I stand
I follow the meanders
Of my Soul’s journey
Sometimes I feel connected
Sometimes not
I can see clearly
Or lose sight
Agitated, weak and nervous once
Peaceful, serene and floating soon after
Perpetual change
Constant movement
Flowing like sand
Between my fingers
My emotions
My feelings
My visions
Flutter and flash
No need to hold on them
Not even the slightest desire for it
I watch the animation of my life
Amused and accepting
I know I am fine
As long as I relinquish
The temptation of taking control
It is as it is
