Betweenment

Betweenment

There blossoms through the ages
Many developing progressive stages
Each stage is fed by the one before
Each as it blossoms shows an open door

Each door leads to a new way of living
To new ways to receive and new ways of giving
Each stage has a key that unlocks the heart
Each doorway we walk through has a message to impart

Through this life and through each lifetime
The corridors extend like an endless timeline
Doorways leading to expansion of beauty
Opportunities to serve in sacred duty

And then ahead we feel completion
The opportunities sought have reached depletion
And as we slow to a place of contentment
We are aware we have reached that stage of
Betweenment

Betweenment is the empty space
Where silence and stillness reside with grace
When heart and mind are one and the same
Quiet yet open – love is the flame

The flame of love cannot be extinguished
And in Betweenment it cannot be diminished
This single flame burns steady and still
Burning strong in Betweenment until….

Towards Infinity

Towards Infinity

Pick up your pen and let it flow
Towards infinity we must go
Absent is all that blocks our path
Be the light – yes carry the staff

Wait out the storm
It soon will pass
The calm is there
for those with care

Care to be eternity
Care to serve and care to be free
Free to choose the path ahead
Navigating without fear or dread

Space holders brave
united thus
with others holding along with us

Infinite time and infinite space
guided from that internal place
Observers seeking clarity
make over the vision of eternity

Expand above
Expand below
with hearts of love
expand the glow

The glow of Light
can be seen from afar
The warmth of Love
fills the Mar

To be unseen
is sacred work
To give one’s love
expands one’s girth

Expand above
Expand below
With tidings of peace
to our Earth we sow

Speak not of trying
Speak not of dying
Expand with knowing
the peace we are sowing

The peace we are sowing
comes from our hearts not mind
Walk gently dear friends
being loving and kind

Hold out our hands
and feel our way
in the shifting sands
there’s movement at play

The sands of time have run their course
Let not one grain hold any remorse
Know that each speck of sand is ours
shared with the many who have gone before

Let go of frustration
for it is the castration
of the very pith of the Tree

Memorize not
There’s nothing forgot
It stays in the expanse of now

Bridge the expanses
Creating our own dances
So light
So light
And free

Move always beyond
dance always beyond
towards infinity

Thank You

Thank You 

You came into my life
when i could not understand
what was missing, wanted
What was i searching for? AND

If i found it
what would it feel like?
What would it be?
How would i recognize it?
Would i be able to see?

And if it was there
would it be there for me?
Could i receive it
and know it was free?

And if it was then mine too
could i have more each day?
Could i expand it
then gift it away?

If i kept some for me as well
would it ever be limited?
Could the well run dry
or would it be infinitted?

Could i ever find myself
lost again and searching
for something i could not understand?
Something missing and wanted?
Feeling lost in this land –
could i ever feel such longing again?

I think not!
I feel so full
so expanded
so blessed

Thank you, thank you
for answering my request

Your loving kindness
was your gift to me
A gift to be passed on
truly free

It keeps expanding
I now feel joy
I’m so excited
It’s like a brand new toy
to be played with
and wanting to be shared

Yes to know we are loved
and that someone cared
to notice and appreciate…

It feels so good
and it is because
YOU are filled with infinite love

Thank you, i love you
And dear friend
your gift to me
is now mine to you
without end…

Thank you for growing my love
and may the harvest begin!
