Love comes

Love comes
Surely as a heavenly eclipse
Over the rising tide's
laps and sweet shore licks
In the delicate way
that your mouth sips
In the smoothe and gentle curve
of your lips

Argentina Glacier



Still aqua towers
have frozen time!
and in the stillness of these ice walls
Nature's power glows

Collosal towers
thick as earth, with
aeons passed
since your birth

Magnificent ice lake
wide and deep
into which
you winter-bathe and summer-seep

Collosal glacier,
your blue depths
hint at your age,
your memory.

The mountains cradle you
Either side,
Framing you
Picture perfect

The rainbows crown you, bless you.
In your presence, a nimble mind can only quieten.
Still itself.
To really be present to the primordial nature of your being.

Quiet now, with the glacier.
I can hear its breath.
Its totality.

Like a sleeping mountain giant
Struck by the gods
It stays here
Hiding, sleeping.

Nursed by the mountains.
Given life by the snow.
An odd deity of nature, created
by Patagonia’s freezing breath/blow

To behold you is to behold the alpha and omega
Where life started and ends.
Like outer space,
it bends one’s perception back to the primal.

Here
The power of nature's Source
Is stark and
confronting.

If I could

If I could
take you forever
I would.

Your hand in mine,
your heart in mine

If we could
run away together
I would.

Your lips on mine
Your life with mine

If I could
love you wholeheartedly
till the heavens opened,

My longing
quelled by yours,

I would.
Two dancers
twisting to one breath

but with one hesitation
- an identity's fear of death

If I could
give you my all,
what would be left?

Observing people on the tube



The passengers
look and watch,
creating

All they see is,
through God's eyes,
inflating

Growing by the hour,
Like the edge
of the universe's power

A Matrix of realities
Im detecting,
Pulses of energy
re-connecting

With everybody's gazes
opening portals
to the mystery's mazes...

In your eyes


In your eyes
memories are playing

In your eyes
perceptions are saying

In your eyes
thoughts are occuring

In your eyes,
life is stirring.

New Life


New life can be scary
As you step up to a new mark
New life, new birth, born
open-eyed & body-stark

New life is amazing
and scary too,
never know if you don’t try
so come on, what else you gonna do?

New life is transforming
like a moth to the sky.
Butterflies see beautiful things
Now its time for us to open our eyes

'Cos our environment is vibrating
on many levels beyond sight
and they hold wisdom
beyond modern day awareness - a dimming of the light.

In the source of your own longing,
is the fibre of all life,
all that seems so far

and separate

is not really.

Crazy, but true.
Theres a little bit of nearly
everything (plant-life, insect, animal and me)
in you.

An earth-angel showed me this,
And other things too.
Blessed for four hours in her emerald green kiss,
And I still feel her by my side, when I ask her to,

her hint of bliss
answering my prayers.
So cool to know I’m not alone,
that the universe actually cares.

And now, in new life I walk
an unknown path.
With the light of awareness I pray
for guidance; her light laugh

by my ear;
her hand on my shoulder;
her love where there’s fear; and
her warmth, when life feels colder.

In crises our nature is revealed

The frailty of humanity,
seeing you lying there.

Knocked down off of your scooter
to the road,
the vulnerability of a human life
layed bear.

The police woman is by your side now.
Kneeling over you.
Her hand in yours.

Whispering hope and courage into your ear

Whispering words
only angels speak.

In crises, the beauty of
human fragility
and human kindness
is revealed.

Only drips in the eyes hint
at the well that
has been struck
within me.
Well of humility.
