Nature

Nature
nature
the natural
do not disturb
to think we can control it
does not make sense – it’s absurd
know now any harm we have done
cannot be undone overnight
it is taking our awakening
to understand this insight
it is human nature
to care for all life
let us remember
to live aware
and care
for all

Nowhere but Now

Nowhere but Now
presencing is natural
all senses attuned
our state of awareness
eyes open or cocooned
the comfort of feeling
heart beat and our breath
natural rhythms doing their best
to remind us that life
is a breath at a time
and our hearts are the centre
from which we can align
aligned to that presence
that includes us
as divine

A Bear on my Couch

A Bear on my Couch
there’s a bear sleeping on my couch
i’d greeted him standing
he’d been there for weeks
and must have been tired
it was a time for hibernation
when i went to bed
i gave an apology instead
and offered the couch
and a blanket
the bear now still sleeps
don’t know when he’ll wake up
as i don’t hibernate
i go from sleep to awake
and often wonder if a long slumber
would help us to be unencumbered
from all we accumulate
in a year of our doings
