The storyteller, the weaver and the great mystery


I here you still
I am returning
the map’s been lost and I’ve forgotten how I got here
it may take me lifetimes but I know you’ll wait

I am returning to you. You
which gently pulls at my heart strings and writes me,
dreams me at night

I awake fully formed again, the storyteller,
the weaver of my life

I’ve never felt so close to you
great mystery. raven energy
wings at my back
I will soar off this vast cliff to
spiral back into union with you

When this soul rests
it is compelled to create in any way it can.
The silence invites poetry and drawings for my beloved

Why so many things after “I”?
The primordial mystery of beingness  
creativity follows stillness
love follows freedom
freedom follows love
more open hand
all things
free



Behind Your Eyes


Behind your eyes, the infinite resides
a vastness of space – fierce grace
I am a child filled with wonder and awe
swinging under a canopy of moss and dew

nothing could stop this smile
here I am wasting time
moving in and out of stillness

will you trust the earth to be at your feet with each step?
the air to fill your lungs with oxygen?
the sun to wake you and
the moon to lull you to sleep?

I am falling in deeper
a curious traveler on the edge
of discovery,
alone in the darkness
feeling my way slowly, gently as I go
Sensing the light of my soul is the home to which I am returning

Sensing the light of my soul is the home to which I am returning
