Morning Thoughts 5/7/17

The rains have come and gone
What of them now remains
Wet stain upon concrete
A chill in the morning air

I listen to the soul of you calling
I listen and grow still
Absorbing the sound
Growing the silence within

I wish for these lesson to be in my marrow
To become part of my being
Undeniably whole

For Health & Spirit

Foolish blood and habits
Grow in the understanding
of what you lack
A true light awaits within

Om Shanti Om
Shanti Om
Shanti Om

Soul reaching out for the light

Clarity of Being

I am seeking freedom both within and without.

Oathkeeper or Oathbreaker: which are you?

Grow in both Body and Mind.

Ecstatic Elevation

Born into this body
Into this time and place
Home by any other name

A state of perpetual searching.

Morning Fragments 5/5/17

Kingdom of Light
Search and realize
it has always been
within you.

I awaken into the waters
and toss until
I begin to swim
and make my way
to the shore.

To create
and deface.
Force language to say
that which was never intended.
Scrawl out in black the words
that are no longer needed.
Creating meaning from
that which remains.

Grey and overcast
Even morning is tired
Waiting for the sun  (haiku)

Where we are
Where we must go
Can they be the same place?

The lessons of a lifetime
Are we preparing for another?

The Divine Within
Transformation to Transformation

Thoughts from Morning Meditation

You who wish to dwell within hope and possibility.

To believe in more.

To see with our heart.

In our own way
we each feed
and grow from light.

Filling myself with the light of morning
I still my mind and feel essential vibrations

Peace. Chant. Peace. Om.

I am searching for the infinite light.

To be human is to seek.

Surrender the self.

See yourself as one part of a whole.
The whole is greater than any one of us can see.

Awaken to the possibility of how much
lies beneathe the surface of existence.

Finite self searching for the infinite self.

Still the mind and body.

To be closer to all of creation.

To create the better self through struggle.

To foster light and understanding in all creation.

I Who Searches

Seek Wisdom in All Forms

Truth through Love
Truth through Nature
Truth through History
Truth through Selflessness
Truth through Art

Do you wish to live in
Knowledge or Fear?

Meditation

Let me grow older and wiser

Let me never surrender my beliefs

Let me grow greater in understanding

Let me grow apart from my vices

Let me foster love

Let me be the change I wish to see

Drops In a Bucket

drops of water slowly
fill the rusted bucket
one plink at a time.

the first one echoes
like a gong struck
in a concert hall.

the metallic sound
dies as drops fall
in a gathering pool.

it takes time and
patience, but soon
the bucket fills

to the brim
before the water
overflows

and slowly
soaks the ground
beneath.
