Love and Restoration

-------Love and Restoration-------

That which guides 
our 
revolution,

Like the Earth around the Sun,
is not the absence 
of tension

But its presence
deeply 
felt.

Light pulls against 
the dark matter 
in my heart,

Restoring truth
to move the 
shame

And love
toward
reparation.

We are not alone,
but each a flower
of the ever-changing,

In this field together
unfolding
into Spring.

Beneath the Waves

-------Beneath the Waves-------
When strong words
direct
upon you,
Feel in
to the
hurt
Of the hurt feelings
that might
surface.
Beneath their waves
is a deep
and quiet ocean,
A whole world
awaiting

your
attention.

Good Intentions



-------Good Intentions-------
Be patient
with the seed
inside,
Awaiting its
spring to grow.
Love
but
do not hover.
For good intentions
mean little
If in effect
they block
the light.

The Sunshine Held

-------The Sunshine Held-------

Like the sunshine
held
inside a seed,

What will become
already 
exists.

Within each
and everyone
there is a beautiful gift,

A piece
of the
entire,

Awaiting 
Love's attention
to unfold.

New World



-------New World-------
Rain
drops
on a frozen lake

And the birds
of early Spring
return.

Be present,
dear heart,
to the world that is emerging.
Within every
little seed
a forest is held,
And realized
through
imagination.

Rather Than Anger



-------Rather Than Anger-------
Rather than anger,
listen in
to the words 
that spark this fire inside
you.

For beneath their cover
is a long and winding story
that has led
to this
very moment.

Remember,
every one
is a child
of the earth
and sky.

We are not here
to be right.
But maybe,
simply
to be loved.

Through Human

-------Through Human-------
A waxing moon
and the lake is
speaking.
Like Mother Earth
through
Human
The currents turn
and crack
 the ice,

Lifting a warm
and
gentle voice
Into the frozen
world
above.
