Child’s Play

Child’s Play
play with the children
come join in their world
what makes them happy
is contagious
playing with water
one of their favourite games
and they don’t even consider
its many forms all have names
to bathe/swim in the liquids
to have imaginary games
pouring water as tea
reality reframed
given an ice cube
fascinated how it melts
skating on a frozen puddle
and how its coldness is felt
then watching the vapour
they blow out on a cold day
or the steam drifting off
a hot mug enjoyed
as they play
the wonder
of everything
finding new ways
to experience
their world
always
wanting to play

Purchase Power

Purchase Power
here we have been
in the material world
now with growing awareness
the past has been twirled
and we see it differently
what has true value?
what do we cherish in life?
what do we choose to keep?
what do we give away?
it is a time of simplifying
sharing the abundance
gifting to others
keeping what’s treasured
like our sisters and brothers
our children, our loved ones
they make life complete
and how do we purchase
what we do not have?
what we are truly lacking
can seldom be bought
it is not about money
that’s an old belief
one where we were caught
our purchase power
for that which we cherish
comes from the heart
and a love-enriched marriage
to life and to nature
to every living creature
and from
the creative force we all are
as we empower the Mar
the ocean of infinite love

Something Important

Something Important
it came after reading
a children’s book about time
beautifully researched
not the nursery tale kind
it was all about history
illustrations all thru
showing each new understanding and
how thru time our understanding grew
on the third to last page
from scientist Stephen Hawking
it relates:
“since the arrow of time moves
in the direction of disorder
 (as the universe expands)
time can only go forward, not backward.
If time ran backward,
you would remember the future.”
full stop
okay….
oft what we bring back from dreamtime
having travelled to the beyond
is later realized when we live it
witnessing how to the dream we respond
as we are awakening
into our dreams that feel more real
than our old ways of living
we feel the new ways congeal
we recognize as
our dreams now take form
we have dreamed our future
bringing it back to be born
