A Sunday Meditation… An Awakening...

A Sunday Meditation… An Awakening...

     When these is an awakening… 
          and what it is, IS…Inspired Spirit…
               when LIFE becomes the C O N T E N T , 
                    the meaning, the primordial experience, 
                        when breath becomes the rapture,
                             the inborn receiving, the giving 
                                  from LIFE to LIFE,
                                       the C O N T E N T reveals itself,  
                                           Its embrace is felt in an astounding revelation
                                               A word, a concept, a calling of each letter, 
                                                    the awakening to  C O N T E N T...

                                    Creation

                                        Omnipresence

                                            Nurturance

                                                 Treasure

                                                      Exchange

                                                           Need

                                                                Truth

… and so beloved be this companionship of BREATH and LIFE.

P E R F E C T ...

Indeed a most glorious Saturday here in New York at The Piermont Pier...

A day in which all is P E R F E C T... and known be… 

     Passion
          Exchange
               Reflection
                   Frivolity
                        Evolution
                             Creation
                                  Treasure… 

the lush of green

brilliant colors in bloom

flowers of divine grace

silence in a serenade of spirit

a visit to the waters at the Piermont Pier 

homage with heart's smile 

monument in honor of OUR VETERANS

words read aloud, their calling felt

the American Flag holding to the glowing sun 

gentle winds creating waves of light

the ambient orchestra

stirring water, soft sounding wind

the rustle of the tall grasses

song birds in choral splendor

a pause, a sigh, a deep breath.

MONUMENT MARKS 70TH ANNIVERSARY OF CAMP SHANKS, WW II BASE LOCATED IN ROCKLAND COUNTY, NEW YORK. WORDS: "TO HONOR THOSE WHO LIVED A CAUSE," BY ROSE MARIE RACCIOPPI, POET LAUREATE, ORANGETOWN, NEW YORK.

... ever his little girl...

Each letter ...

My Father’s little girl I was born to be

The meaning of love he did bring to me

And as I reflect on what be taught

FATHER becomes real in all he brought

In ways often magical he would proclaim

Each letter what was to be in love’s claim

And so it is in reflection this day with grace

I live what in heart he did lovingly place…

Faith and frivolity

Awareness and aspiration

Truth and treasure

Harmony and honor

Exchange and evolution

Righteousness and reflection

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY

Ever your little girl,

Rose Marie

OUR VETERANS

'Tis the vision of freedom and valor within souls we hail

Homage, gratitude to OUR VETERANS ever, ever, to prevail

The gifts of LIFE with vision blessed and bold

This the giving within each Veteran's story told

In reverent celebration of OUR VETERANS, their sacrifices made

To defend our freedoms and liberties our founding fathers laid.

Such be the splendor... within the will of beauty...

within the will of beauty each bloom a blessed story

be this God’s grace in presence, truth and sublime glory

hue, texture, petals, vibrant and delicately divine

the gifts of this season, the majestic NOW of time.

Ascend to the calling...

to defend beyond offense

be this the way of the knowing heart

from which compassion, grace, harmony, bear their start

each holds to perceptions birthed from experience and time

let us ascend to the calling of the DIVINE

                         Deliverance, 

                               Inspiration, 

                                   Volition, 

                                        I AM, 

                                            Nurturance, 

                                                 Eternal,

in thought, quest,  word and deed

and so shall PEACE… PEACE be a blessed creed.
