Sacred Spaced

Sacred Space

Sacred space –
this time and place –
connected to the All

Solitude –
it is what preludes
a connection to the multitudes

Quagmire exists
Open up those fists
and allow in the Light and Love

Cherish the times
when all life rhymes
as poetry in your heart

Make no excuse
It’s time to let loose
and be all that you are

The crust of protection
you’ve placed in each direction
is blocking the Love and the Light

It is time for expansion
to unite with the transom
Expand and fracture that shell

And what will emerge –
what you have tried to submerge,
is a new you you’ll want to meet

Let sacred space
be your new home base
to nurture the birth of the new

Your newness discovered –
a wholeness uncovered –
allows you to spin like a ball

A ball or a sphere
catapults without fear
attracted to sources of Light

The photons are dancing
and our participation’s enhancing
creation from sacred space

Come dance with your Light –
every cell of your site –
and merge with the multitudes o’er

Envision the new
then come back to ensue
bringing form to what you have seen

Jingle the sounds
of all that abounds –
magic enhancement of Light

Twist it and twirl it
Manage and swirl it
Love it and bring it to form

Form that is born
from sacred space

From sacred space
the old replace

Replace
with
Grace
and
Love

The Pivot Point

The Pivot Point

The pivot point
is critical to
the balancing act
of the New

In the past
some would steal
to fill basic needs
such as a meal

And the tales of Robin Hood
every version showed he stood
to take from those wealthy
who hoarded their wealth
and give to the needy
sharing the more, gifting health

The New is here
The die have been cast
We have but this chance
to balance and last

And this will not happen
if one must steal to survive
Take a good look
It is simple to revive

To revive a way of living
To balance and sustain
To live here in harmony
in the Way that all can gain

So simple, so simple
The Way of the New
It’s as ancient as any plan
for balance can do

The answer is gifting
gifting all that we can
Gifting our abundance
must be our new plan

What do we need?
What do we use?
What part of our abundance
can be gifted to infuse?

Infuse what is needed
so others can live
Providing simple necessities
which many can give

If we look at our families
and our communities here
where is the pivot point
to bring balance near?

If we share what we have
and receive love in return
we create a new balance
and will cherish what we learn

Oppression and the Surfer

Oppression and the Surfer

It’s a time of oppression, repression, depression
A time of recession, turmoil and greed
Recognize the symptoms are churning and burning
And the storm’s path is building – to where will it lead?

The waves that are rising and building and rolling
Are fed by the desperate ones who’re in need
Those who need water and clothing and shelter
Those who have families they’re wanting to feed

And if their call is unanswered, ignored or denied
The storms will keep building, keep spreading wide
All will be in its path, be ready, expect it
Be ready to receive it for there’s nowhere to hide

The storm of destruction, laying waste, creating change
Has a purpose of taking, levelling the field where we play
To experience in this lifetime what others are living
From this storm there’s no shelter – is there no other way?

It is the way of the surfer who rides the waves of oppression
Surfing waves of repression, of depression and greed
It takes a skilled surfer to ride it out, to stay balanced, heart-centred
As the storm waves increase, fuelled by the need

These waves are the big ones; they’re here to be mastered
The surfer has waited for them, waited many lifetimes
The surfer doesn’t consider the wave before or one after
This one’s to be surfed as the wall of water climbs

The water holds the info, the emotions, our journeys
The water has accumulated it, all is combined
The surfer can see it, can feel it, understand it
These are the emotions that can’t be confined

Know that the surfer will ride out the big one
The surfer is riding for all of mankind
The surfer is strengthened by courage and compassion
The surfer intends to leave no one behind

Cheer on the surfer, take a lesson, become one
Or at the very least intend to do no one harm
Give away… share… return to the basics
We’re all responsible for what’s fuelling this storm

As the storm clouds are building and the waves are increasing
Somewhere the sun’s shining and the waters are calm
There Surfer has reached the shoreline – the journey has ended
Surfer has returned and rests now on the Palm
