Midnight ride to freedom

Midnight ride to freedom

~

Deep within every heart

is a creative power

like a wild stallion

or restless mustang

wanting to break free

of the ropes that hopelessly

try to bind the wind

~

We go crashing through the corral

that imprisons the heart

when we smell

something in the wind

that remembers the wilderness

we shake off the sweat

of too much thought

to ride a new energy

to the moon

and beyond

~

We race as far as it will take us

until it throws us

into unknown spaces

without a name

where we can breathe

~

It doesn’t matter

if we are

plundered under by rising

and falling waves

or wandering in a clearing

that invites

our imagining heart

to fill it

with visions of a new world

~

When we disappear

we reappear

in a place

we have never been

and we begin again

to search for those apples

fermenting in the orchard

that made us laugh

~

No page can confine us

no threats can control us

for we remember

the wine

pressed from wild grapes

and the creative power

of the heart

remembers

the way home

to love

Hymn of thy morning beauty

 

 

Thy morning opens divine treasures

tumbling and falling

before mine eyes

widened with the loving awe

of adoration

and sweet bewilderment

rivers and seas

flowing with the shimmering light

of thy passing

thou art combing stars

and weaving wildflowers

in my hair

thy gaze becomes reflecting rays

of radiance

shining from the face of the earth

the hymn of sunrise

and the grace of thy nearness

wraps me in majesty and gentleness

drawing tears of light

spilling over from mine eyes

touched with the essence

of roses

as they slip into my heart

face is flushed

and blushing

with love

and i am trembling

in thy beauty

touched by the tender breeze

and intimacy of thy breath

The transforming touch

 

Love writes
and creates with Light
within the heart
and upon the soul
pouring beauty
and breathing new life
out upon the earth

Love flows
through the transforming
gaze and vigil
of divine awareness
shining out and flowing
from the Beloved
like an inner sun

Beauty of a single glance
awakens our souls
with the radiance
of vision
a profound presence
manifesting all creation
falling gently upon the earth

To be touched by spirit
is to be born anew
again and again
to feel the brush of wings
of flight
spreading in the soul
giving birth
to a gentling grace
meant for all mankind

Kneel before the altar
at the pinnacle
of your highest reach
and feel the breath move
to create an opening
for Love to soothe
the deepest pain

There is healing love
pouring
from the divine Spring
of the Beloved
opening the portals
between heaven
and earth

Let it flow
and feel the glow
touching
and bringing you
to life that is new
and love that is true

Spring comes to the Soul

 

Aroused from sleep by a dancing heart

playfully pulsing and prancing

creating a rhythm of  inner joy

spinning out

the soft sounds of mystery

of a new song

 

Waves of feeling from a sacred chamber

inspiring spring

in the swirling sweetness

of a symphony

of  smiles and laughter

 

A divine orchard of swaying blossoms

and tender leaves

emerging from blessings

of touch

and so much love

caressing the boundaries

of the heart

inviting heaven to dance

upon the silent waters

of the soul

 

Without the beauty

of the Beloved

the enchanting breath

of Spring

would never come

 

As the reach of the Beloved

surrounds

the sacred garden

with a tender embrace

tears of the luminous dew

of love decorate

every spreading petal and open hand

as lovers bow before

the rising light of dawn

 

 

 

 

 

Whispering

 

climb the mountains to feel the bliss

of the kiss of the open sky

 

*

 

cross the desert to reach

what soothes those thirsty lips

 

*

 

follow the music of the spinning stars

and discover what excites your heart

 

*

 

pour us the wine of you and dare

to sing the song of longing

 

*

 

how dreary the day might seem

without the hope of a dream

 

*

 

dare to whisper your deepest prayer

trust the source of life to care

 

*

 

touch the hovering joy

that laughs within your heart

 

*

 

feel the touch of spirit

stirring you to life

 

*

 

suddenly the rays of light

are like arrows in the night

 

*

 

warriors of love are we

when we are guided by thee

Serenity

 

Disappearing into solitude

deep listening

and watchfulness

a vigil of inner senses

dwelling within the silent  soul

*

harmonizing and blending

balancing

a caressing wave washes over

my stillness

*

rocking me gently

in the serenity of the sea

the inner peace of the kingdom within

*

the awakening beauty

of the Presence

of the Light

*

of the Beloved

nestling softly

spirit into  spirit

*

scattered scent of  musk and roses rising

from a place of rest upon

the warm and welcoming chest

of  Love

*

silken covering of divine skin

protecting the tender pulsing beat

of a rhythmic heart

that creates the world

*

a moment comes when a heart

must confess

the truth of a divine caress

*

emerging and coming

to life in the glowing moonlight

of  a sacred night

*
