In Peace

Times comes and go.
Ebb abd flow
fast and steady
creaky and timid
steady in the changes
ready fro the turns
savoring each space as present
on down the road
being sure not to mistake where I am for where I've been or where I'm going
knowing that the ride is infinite and everchanging
evergrowing
big and powerful
wide and long
over and under and most importantly right straight through the center.
Fearlessness to forge on ahead with no reservations about what will show
knowing that even if it makes no sense
it will
trust

TRUST
SPIRIT
LOVE

LOVE
SPIRIT
TRUST

Continue on
with eyes open
heart open
mind open
arms open
breath steady
in awe
and gratitude.
There is always something within reach to inspire awe
to regain that connection
breath is the easiest
heart beat
fingers
toes
just as a newborn inspires awe
so should our bodies
amazement
and gratitude daily
a pledge
a sacred contract
total safety
in that knowing
like a child in it's mothers arms nursing and falling asleep
that knowing that one is protected by something much bigger
like the mother is creator and keeper of the infant
spirit is that to us
the sky becomes our blanket
keeping us safe and warm and knowing that we are taken care of that there will be warm milk and a warm body to hold us as we mature and grow.
Until we no longer need her. Mother earth. When we have learned all we need from this life and from her, we grow up and move away
on to our next place
