Upon arising to this day new... heed wise...
A hankering, a beckoning of heart
A dream, a vision, a knowing from the very start
A reaching for what the soul says you are to BE
Beyond the limits of a perceived reality
Heed wise the inner flame and fire
It is Spirit's knowing, knowing desire
Feel the soaring that holds you true
Live the light, the power, the passion of YOU.

Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper - Shallow ( Lyrics Video )
Words that call to that silent yet resounding quest of SELF onto SELF... YES, "Far from the SHALLOW..."
to the knowing,
to the longing,
the longing that beckons "for change."
to the knowing,
to the longing,
the longing that beckons "for change."
Longing
the TRUTH of SELF beckons within
the longing for change beyond the din
far, far, from the shallow NOW
to the quest, to the heart held vow
the spirit in its soaring splendor
to this so willingly we surrender
far far, from the shallow NOW
to the quest, to the heart held vow.

Of B R E A T H ...
The delight of breath be it known
The seeds of creation be they sown
The power of will the breath makes claim
In grace the silent calling of God’s name
This in heart’s chambers finds a place
The breath, the presence of divine grace
Behold the innocence of years yet young
In breath, the silent song yet sung.

An awakening...an assertion.... words that proclaim...
An awakening... an assertion... words that proclaim…
And I realized it was the battles of my own life that had inspired me.
For in the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile.
In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm.
In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.
In the midst of sorrow, I found there was, within me, an invincible love.
-- Albert Camus
... and within me there be an invincible SELF...
the call of Spirit, Evolution, Love, Freedom ... and so...
No More
shackled no more for I am the wind free
silent no more for I am the thunderous storm
despairing no more for I am the dawning day
thirsty no more for I am lakes and rivers flowing clear
lost no more for I am the guiding stars
confined no more for I am vistas wide and far
hungry no more for I am bounty and harvest divine
this the awakened faith mine
this the awakened faith mine.

When the Sunday Morning Light calls to the ZEN OF BEING...
In Haiku Reflection
brilliant be the light
gift of a Sunday morning
time in flowing waves.
treasures of BEING
artifacts of creation
the joy of stillness.

Ever Constant...
Ever Constant...
Touched be our pulsing hearts
For the years from which we depart
Yet memories hold ever constant, ever true
For known onto self be the timeless you
Each movement holds to our first step taken
In spirit we are ever embraced, not forsaken
God we know sees us as a child beyond time
Ever in birth new in blessings of the divine
Held we are in the womb of creation in PRAISE
Blessed be the way, THE WAY, of our days
The guide for self and the care you give
Is the gift of breath and BEING we come to live
So as you take gently my reaching hand
Feel I the WORD of GOD in loving command
And when the doors open to the heavens above
Know it is the eternal, the eternal womb of love.
Touched be our pulsing hearts
For the years from which we depart
Yet memories hold ever constant, ever true
For known onto self be the timeless you
Each movement holds to our first step taken
In spirit we are ever embraced, not forsaken
God we know sees us as a child beyond time
Ever in birth new in blessings of the divine
Held we are in the womb of creation in PRAISE
Blessed be the way, THE WAY, of our days
The guide for self and the care you give
Is the gift of breath and BEING we come to live
So as you take gently my reaching hand
Feel I the WORD of GOD in loving command
And when the doors open to the heavens above
Know it is the eternal, the eternal womb of love.
