Ice

Ice

Ice is a device to expand our perspective
to expand to understand is our objective
we know that water responds to sound and to thought
when it freezes the vibration at that moment is caught

the glaciers, the polar caps
hold a history of where we were at
now that they thaw and release
they free the past, letting go with ease

and with prayer and intention
and a clear practice of abstention
from judgement and greed
the multitudes we can feed
with love

cherish the vapour, the liquid and ice
feel them, know them, be the device
intentionally contribute to what becomes
ice and water

we’ve been given a medium
that connects all on Earth
we are water, were held in water
even before we were birthed

we are our emotions
and our thoughts it is true
the water in our cells
knows all that we do

we breathe out
and we radiate all that we are
impacting on everything
be it close by or far

water is warmed
by the love in our hearts
all hearts are connected
to the One Heart that starts

starts the act of Creation
when all hearts combine
to feel the love and the joy
and the peace that can climb

climb to the summit of existence
full of wonder and grace
and expansive full gratitude
that all can embrace

who knows what forms
in the future will be
but know the purpose of ice
holds the key to be free

With Love and Gratitude

With Love and Gratitude

Dear Jean,

What you have embodied
from a very young age
is of a curious child
growing into a sage

With energy, humour
and love with a twist
Seeking out answers
to a very long list

So many teachers
Experiences too
Cultures to visit
Immersed in a few

Having gathered the wisdom
and the love that is life
you are generously sharing
and in others ignite

a passion for being
all that they can be
determined to contribute
and with all senses see

It is the time of co-creation
into a new world
The past has departed
Into the future we’re hurled

The chaos surrounds us
accelerating change
We hold all the puzzle pieces
The big picture rearranged

We join you in the journey
and are committed to find
our piece of the puzzle
so all can be combined

Thank you for your teachings
your sharing and love
You’ve flown into Aquarius
in the form of the Dove

When Illness Prevails

When Illness Prevails

When illness prevails
One must lower one’s sails
Maybe throw out a sea anchor
or tie up at a berth

And as one is forced into a rest state
and lets go of the calendar date
there may be some discomfort
yet peace in the process

When illness happens rarely
to contrast sometimes unfairly
to a state of action and thriving
it may fuel the reviving

What causes our illness
our fevers or chilledness
may remain a mystery
or may go down in history

We may recognize the source of
an imbalance then the course of
a spin out of control –
how away we did roll

The peace and the quiet
allows all to settle
we try it
and balance is restored
and the lesson not ignored

One returns then perhaps cautiously
to an existence of generosity
now reminded the value of
precious time, rest and love
