A Moment In Forever.

Leaping into the air
I leave the world behind me...
and for a second,
all of its worries.

A child again,
for a moment, in forever...
I remember....
busy doing I forget.
Then I spring into the ether
and I remember again,
what it is, that I had forgotten.

But again,
it slips between my fingers like water,
misplaced but not lost,
with faith the only cost.

When I leap into the atmosphere,
for one breath, I am weightless,
for a blink, I am timeless,
for a moment in forever,
I am free.....

The Light Turned Green.

Sitting at that red light,
the clouds parted
and the feeling
and the experience,
of true surrender,
hit me squarely between the eyes....
and dropped me.

For a brief moment I understood.
I felt the burden of carrying,
all those worries and fears and expectations....... lift.

For a brief moment,
sitting at that red light,
I experienced bliss, God's grace,
call it what you will,
I was free.

I was free to soak up,
that beautiful love,
that unquestionable love,
for free.

Tears welled up in my eyes....
my chest expanded....
and then.....
....... the lights turned green..... :)

I Looked Into Your Eyes.

I looked into your eyes,

and wanted nothing,
knew nothing,
felt nothing. 

I looked into your eyes 

and I loved you,
but I did not need you.

I felt not the need to talk,
to ask,
to own,
to understand.

I trust you felt my love,
but felt no need for proof.
I looked into your eyes,

and saw you,
felt you,
freed you.

Your love embraced me,

and made me whole,
lighter, larger.
I felt your love of my love, 

God's love,
loves love,

and I smiled.

I had given nothing,

and received nothing.
No thing had I given,

and no thing had I received.

Like a wave I reached your shore,
and was home.
Like a bird forsaking its nest
for the first time,
I swooped into your open arms.

Absorbed into my true nature,
my God nature,
 my love nature,
I was lost and found,
in the same breath.

I looked into your eyes,

and saw me,
in Thee. 

That's what set me free. 

Love Wins Love.

Close your eyes for a second and as you breath in, imagine breathing in the feeling of great love.
Envision that love filling every part of you and lifting your spirits up to the heavens.
Hold your breath for a second and then slowly breathe out, feeling that love imbue everyone and everything around you.

Do it for a little while, early in the morning, before you start the day.
Then try and remember now and then
throughout your day, at work, at home,
singing in the shower, anywhere.

The first time I tried, I had the biggest smile on my face and I had the best day. Everyone was happy, I felt like I was a magnet for love and a conductor for love and a transmitter for love.

So give it a go, you deserve it and the universe can always find room, for some more love. :)

As Big As The Sky.

I hope reading this, helps you, as much as it helped me, writing it.

A mind that's in doubt,
has a heart that's in drought.
Doubt eats away
and keeps sweetness at bay.

A mind that is sweet 

and full of compassion,
has a heart that's in love and
drowning in passion. 

A passion for life 

and all it's unexpected adventures
and a passion for love 

and all its unexpected connections.

A heart that is sweet,

cannot be resisted. 

It opens all doorways 

and can't be desisted. 

When we look the world in the eye,
with total approval,
it'll melt away all our hurts,

a timely removal.

For if we keep judging others,
we're only hurting ourselves. 
We're creating the doubts,
that are harming our cells. 

For cancer is caused,

by this dark, harmful thinking
and keeps our sweetness at bay
and has our hearts,

slowly sinking.

Sinking into a bind, 

of self loathing and pride. 
Stuck in our hurts,

with nowhere to hide. 

It's only on the opening,

of our souls to the world,
that our worries 

and neurosis,

will slowly unfurl.

It might be awkward 

and embarrassing, 

to us, 

at first. 
But it's our only way forward,

from our shyness and hurts.

For when we open our hearts,

with no thoughts of the cost. 
No longer will our souls,

be helpless and lost.

When we open our hearts

and look the world in the eye. 
Nothing can resist, 

a love as big as the sky.

My Shiva of Strength and Mother Shakti Divine.

My Shiva of strength,
Mother Shakti Divine,
your a tower of love,
of which we all seek to climb.

The mystery behind the truth,

of your being,
is not in our minds 

and it's not for the seeing.
The truth of it lies,

behind our acceptance 

our humility and tranquility
and our willingness for repentance.

Swept up by the winds, 

of your Dharma
and Grace. 
We're the waves of devotion,

of this vast human race.
As we surge to the shore,

to meet your embrace,
we're swallowed up by your love
and at last we are safe.

In your boundless blue ocean,

of love and devotion,
only your love is material

and devoid of emotion.

 

Homeward Bound.

Sitting in the early morning bright,
of the new days light.
These words I heard inside,
washed up by the full moons tide.

"Try harder, don't give up,
keep moving, don't look up,"

"Keep struggling, keep striving,
don't rest, keep on climbing."

"Don't stop, don't look down,
Keep improving, homeward bound."

My Beautiful Lord Rama

Sitting quietly,

in the dawns golden filtered light.
I wonder at your beauty Lord Rama.
My imagination,

wonders at such a sight.

With only my hearts vision as a guide,
my imagination soars,

with unforsaken delight.

Chanting your mantras 

and absorbed in your yantra,
I sit in awe, 

transfixed by your might. 

As a lamp in a windless place,

does not waver,
my mind is moved,

by my hearts unsullied candor.

My Rama,

my beautiful Lord Rama
God of all Gods

and King of all Kings.
Your story is a vision,

of our hearts purest desire. 

Could this world of now,

elevate to such heights?

As living, breathing examples,

of your purest unconditional love 

and dharma,
could we aspire to be so bright?

My Rama,

my beautiful Lord Rama,
grand curator 

and orchestrator,

of all this drama. 

Please grace the peaceful few,

the strength to live your word,
to be living examples of your love

and to never go, unheard. 

Please do not forsake,

our noblest prayers 

but give us the strength to serve 

and share. 

Please show us the way, 

to always love and care. 

And always show us the way, 

to be just and fair. 

Warmed by golden beams
of dusty,
curtained light,

these words inside me,

I cannot deride. 

"By your side, 

by your side, 

I'll always be there, 

by your side."

I am the Love.......

I am the love that grounds me 

and surrounds me.
It's a love that pushes me 

and moves me,
that fools me 

and rules me.

Deep at my core,

I am the love,

that disrupts me 

and interrupts me,
that drops me 

and rocks me. 
It croons me 

and swoons me.

Deep at the centre of my soul,
I am the love that smashes me

and crashes me.
and obliterates,

the very thought of me.

Deep in this heart of hearts,
I am this love

and it tries me 

and cries for me,

It throws me and slows me. 

It's a love that shines through me,

from the very essence of Thee,
from the core, from the centre,

from the kernel,

of Thee. 

At the nucleus of this me,

is a love that is unconditionally free.
Free of the hurts and the guilts, 

of that disillusioned we.

I am a love that is crystalline clear 

and has no fears.
It's a love that fills me and thrills me,
stills me and distills me.
It's the very source of my purity 

and is my only security. 

I am the love

that cannot die

and cannot lie.
I am the love 

that burns away our pride. 
I am the love that answers,

"Who am I."

Endless Love.....

If we find someone or something,

that we love with an open heart.
Someone or something,

that moves us and expands us,

beyond our little selves.

If we then take that love 

and love all that is in our realm,

with that same love.

Then it is,

that we have enjoyed that love,

we have spread that love 

and we have become that love...

an endless love.
