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 

a 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.

-------

Present to the Heart

-------Present to the Heart-------

Be present

to the heart,

Young Blood,

As you rise

and show defiance

to the Man.

Always remember

the life

behind the masks,

And hold each

as you would

a seed

Longing

to be

seen.

-------

No Blame

-------No Blame-------

Before you stumble

to blame another

hold yourself up

right,

And allow 

their light

to reflect 

in your eyes.

For the truth is,

each of us are human.

And human

is kin to 

earth.

When the seed unfolds

it brings into 

a moment

many generations.

Like this,

trauma too inherits.

Do not blame another

for the hurt they carry,

But look deeper into the source.

And let us heal 

together

the wounds of our

separation.

No One is Disposable

-------No One is Disposable-------

Grasshoppers are hopping

between the grasses

and the reeds,

Giving light, with presence,

to the plants

that some call weeds.

Mugwort shares her dreaming.

Clover

the honey song.

In Goldenrod

resistance.

With Violet our hearts be strong.

Do not dispose, dear friend,

of any

one or body,

For all of life is precious

and each of us

belong.

-------

Give Rise

-------Give Rise-------

Allow yourself

to change,

sweet heart,

Like

the leaves

change.

To show the world

your inner color.

To fall.

And

falling,

may you

Give rise

to new

life.
