One Word at a Time

One Word at a Time
thank you for our lives
and the opportunities given
now asking for help
in making decisions
with open awareness
we now embark
moving into the light
and out of the dark
what to leave behind
now that all can be seen?
how to gather together
as one humanity-being?
surrendering to
the present and presence
allowing the future
to become like a sentence
one word at a time

Jasmine

Jasmine
Persian yasamin
now global, the aroma of this vine
pleasured as a fragrance or tea
our senses are refined
here we explore how
scents can be mood-altering, medicinal
where they can take us
is unlimited, unconditional
how often do we experience
and deepen our sensitivities
slowing down, meditative
extracting from simplicity?

Carillon

Carillon
hear the bells ring
hear the celestial choir
as we tune in
we ascend so much higher
the beauty and peace
that exists on all levels
can lift us to feeling
we are intuitive rebels
the past no longer works
once we have experienced the divine
we no longer are governed by
any sense of time
