The Awakening

The Awakening

body awareness
awakens from the heart
gradual sensory signals
twinkle in the dark

peripheral sensitivity
awareness of place
sound and movement
start to enter our space

the chakras start spinning
playing their own tunes
happy to awaken
into this new room

this room, this home
this playground inspired
with the intention to contribute to
the New
and
blessed to be rewired

Change as an Art Form

Change as an Art Form

still unable to write
but at least to begin
the gift of the fevers
brought an enchanted vision

three nights in a row
in a blurred concept of time
the same vision appeared
of what was a popular past time

it felt like they were sisters
or sometimes like friends
sometimes with men
a gathering of artists

little tablets were painted
the size of recipe cards
a magical material
that almost painted itself

always there were flowers
simple scenes of such beauty
all represented change
perhaps season, perhaps colour

each scene was to represent
something very present
only to be replaced by the next artist
with a version after time was spent

a vision that arrived outside of time
always
always capturing the beauty of change
showing us change as an art form

Deer

Deer

small, spotted and sweet
tall, antlered and strong
even those deer that rein
at this time of year

four feet on the ground
poised ready to bound
startled by a sound
always alert

silent and present
gardeners oft lament
their seeking and eating
choice flowers and plants

the deer are abundant
thriving in nature
sharing our abundance
makes us a good neighbour
