Inner Space

Inner Space

if our inner space is more expansive
than the outer place we’ve lived in
how do we explore this place
and navigate the transive?

to go within
to be
begin
a stillness
and silence
awareness of
a heartbeat
a breath
sounds fade away
the body but a shell
of the space within

to enter this space
is to know how to replace
the busyness of mind
with a very different kind –
the fullness of empty

where harmony exists
and an atmosphere of bliss
and a quiet interlude
quite vacant of mood

the Beloved may appear
other presence may feel near
to dance alone is not possible
this is the healing-feeling hospital
complete with emergence/see ward
dock, tors divine
a well/coming committee
and a way to combine

to combine the emptiness perceived
with the Oneness achieved
and simply be
a “wait and see”
a vessel, a servant
ready to accept a new current
allowing the flow
and ready to go
when called

Industrial Form

Industrial Form

industrial form brought us thru the ages
from agricultural to the manufacturing stages
cities grew and production soared
natural resources from the Earth were bored

bored or borrowed? that is the question
infinite resources is out of the question
we live upon a finite sphere
and a quest for growth has brought us here

our growth is not of what we can produce
or the balance sheet: surplus up, debt reduce
our souls have sought an experience here
and the importance of that is becoming very clear

if we are to continue to grow our population
how do other species fit into that equation?
if we keep wanting more material things
what of the waste and pollution that brings?

the industrial form of civilization right now
feels totally uncivilized and is showing us how
to dig deeply within, not into the Earth
for humanity is to go thru a total rebirth

we will continue to be inventive and bold
and the inner resources is where we’ll mine gold
the ability to know and to do so with caring
will bring about a revolution that’s all about sharing

what we no longer use and no longer need
can be reworked or given to others to seed
a new way of living, connected and balanced
honouring our differences, contributions and talents

onward we go – the timing is now
a consciousness revolution is showing us how
perhaps it’s survival as the theme of this tale
and deeply within we know we cannot fail

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
