Primal Power of BEING...

Primal Power of BEING

     All pulsates, all breathes, 

          all in its own special way 

               gives and receives. 

                   A seed, a flower, leaves, a tree, 

                       all that is green, 

                           all that bears color 

                                hold to libation, to the rains, 

                                     to the oceans, seas, streams, 

                                          lakes, brooks, 

                                              to the sacredness of water. 

     All that breathes hold to the presence of air, 

          to the energizing warmth of the sun. 

               All that lives are fed 
                     from the nourishment of the earth. 

     Let us breathe as a seed, 

          knowing the bloom that is to be. 

               Let us bloom as a flower, 

                    in its glory, in its special season. 

     Let us discern, decide, deliver, 

          from the consciousness of care and creation.

              Let us hold sacred our BREATH, 

                  the primal power of BEING. 

     Let us with reverent regard embrace 

         and become one with the intent …

              ever the giving and the receiving, 

                   ever the receiving and the giving… 

                        the beauty, the bloom, the bounty, 

                             the beloved, the blessed…

The Five Platonic Solids ~ Elements of BEING

Earth within known to me

'Tis the mountain, flower, bounty be

Water within known to me

'Tis the streams, rivers, oceans and seas

Fire within holds it claim

'Tis the sun, the warmth, the rising flame

Air within in breath sublime

'Tis the wind, the call of the divine

Spirit within distant vistas known

'Tis the GOD, the Creation in sanctity shown.

DIVINE FRENZY

Wrapped in the rapture of consciousness unbridled... set aflame with an insatiable fire ... the knowing that calls to soul... this the exaltation of BEING...

"And when, after having divested yourself of your mortal body, you arrive at the most pure ether, you shall be a God." Pythagoras

compliance gives way to creative freedom

restriction gives way to expansive understanding

confinement gives way to total liberation

doubt gives way to boundless faith

judgment gives way to BEING

DIVINE FRENZY the breath of soul

spirit winds aflame

cloak of mortal clothing shed

flaring breath of soul as SELF known

alignment, resonance with earth, water, fire, air, either

sacred interplay of sound, light and spirit

ascension real, ascension real.

Firmament ~ An Embracing Stillness

An embracing stillness
The air as one with breath breathing
The sun as one with heart pulsing
The bloom as one with soul sounding
The water as one with grace blessing
The firmament as one with PRESENCE
So be these gifts in PRAISE
An embracing stillness.

Awakened Faith

the roots that feed you
the waters that bathe you
the fire that warms you
the air that breathes you
the vibration that sounds you
the light that illuminates you
such be the SPIRIT that is you.
