Falling to Pieces

-------Falling to Pieces-------


Untangling
the knots of 
expectation
is and will be 
messy


But just like falling
into love
is 
a falling
to pieces


Letting go
lets grief to hold
to heal
and move us through 
the limitations


Into 
the darkness
and 
in
to light.

Allow the Cold


-------Allow the Cold-------

Within this Winters
slow
unfolding

Allow the cold
to hold
your hand,

To calm
the longings
and deepen breath.

Presence
defies
the rush of Empire

And makes a space
for joy
to rise.

Made of Many


-------Made of Many-------

Keep warm
in the light of knowing
you
are not alone

And
do not
blame
another,

For every
one
is made of
many

And much has been
to make
this
moment.

Receive the wind
as it bends
upon you,
around you,

And around we turn,
endlessly becoming
a star
in the night.

Forever Becoming

-------Forever Becoming-------

Quiet
has come
to the 
branches.

Their summer leaves
soften
into gold,

And slowly, 
lovingly 
let go,

Back down to earth
without 
sound.

We are each the tree of a little seed
and together
an entire forest.

May we move graceful
and grateful 
like this,

Forever becoming
into the dreams 
we hold 
within.
