Privacy

Privacy

stay away
let me be
i want my freedom
to retreat from we

and then there is oneness
where all are the same
each their part of expressing
the wholeness frame

able to feel, observe and allow
able to share and to others endow
their authentic presence, their perspectives
contributing to collaborative directives

privacy has its place
to know oneself with loving grace
to sit in solitude
to feel and be
letting go disturbances at the periphery
to empty out
to be still and silent
to communicate from the inner realms
to receive guidance, support
from our creative cohorts
to heal, to learn
to spend time to discern
what our feelings mean
how to turn up with our team
and grow the love

the artist will say
they oft need to stay away
from the confusion and illusion
of the chaos around them
to create from within
and then to begin
to be open to share
their art and to dare
to merge with the outer
with the beauty they give
that all may live
in true wholeness

The New Currency

The New Currency

dollars and cents really don’t make sense
what is their history?
a basic exchange, a way to rearrange
simplicity

an expression of gratitude
a measure of value
an offer to help
a sharing of abundance

whole economies and global mistrust
have evolved from a manipulation
of currencies, investments, lending
and borrowing – a created illusion

what is the solution?
let’s try inclusion
from a place of no ego
and no owing

the currency of love
what if our focus was on giving not receiving?
what if we totally investigated our believing
that money matters?

does not our true joy
come from loving kindness?
can a sharing economy be created
from generosity dissolving our blindness
acknowledging the suffering of others
celebrating the gifts we can share
educating, elevating others
to a place of simple comfort
simple sustainable co-existence
on this beautiful planet of co-habitation

can we live from a place of “no rules for me”
simply doing our work as
an expression of gratitude
a measure of value
an offer to help
a sharing of abundance?

a life long investment
in the circling spiral
of life
and of love

this is and always has been
our primary currency
all other currencies and exchanges
can be subsets of the above
if they simply fit

The Ebb Tide Returns

The Ebb Tide Returns

past thru the centuries,
receding, receding
receding to the lowest point now
alas

oh but then now behold
the return of the gold
the golden age of beauty and love

to have trusted and known
the love we have grown
could ultimately turn the tide

a time to co-create
a time to celebrate
the New
created with Love
