Spirit Abides

I am a spirit gaining strength, / making new plans for the journey, / watching the bones whiten and disintegrate into the dark soil.

Fear

You are cold with fear. / Time to let the sun warm you, / your body, your soul, your heart, / wrapped “in a blue cloud-cloth away from the too rough fingers of the world.”

Novice

O’ the care, the gentleness, the time! / To bring these thoughts to fruitful mind. / I see you as a note of music / Waiting to be played.

A Healing at the Christfire

And, if we of God stand strong and tall, ready to receive, / We have not found it easy to do so; it has been our life-long lesson.

Trickster's Sun (a la Dr. Seuss)

Watch how it goes / How it tells, how it knows. / What the glory of sun-up / Can mean to our toes.

Please Teach Me

As I greet the heavenly roses in my own backyard, I see myself in them. I see how Mother Earth loves me and my beauty as much as She loves them and their beauty.
