Deepening Love

once the love projections fall away

after the sheer delight in one another

while still aglow,

when that time of bliss

when that perfection leaves room

for one another's humanness--

then, oh yes, then,

that relationship begins to grow--

realistically with deepening love

Coffee Shop Musings

sitting in a warm hum of

music and background chatter

a phone rings, cars drive by and

mothers push their strollers

intersections move us through life—

forward, not backward

we are ready whether we are

ready or not

and it is our choice how we take that step

Austen says it’s character and conduct—

preceded by reason and logic

Bronte and her sisters embrace –

love and passion

my understanding speaks to no black and white—

 or one solution

only simple presence and conscious action—

 in each and every moment

A Sacred Word

Trust is a rich word.
Even a sacred sound
when rolled

upon my tongue
and let go

into the air.

Sometimes

so allusive,
I desire to crawl

into a ball
and go to sleep,
avoiding aloneness
and the fear
that joy and love

are forever
gone.

Wanting to sleep

and awaken to

another reality,
sometimes, but
sometimes

awakening
to sameness.

Yet, each time I shift,

if only slightly.
get up--greet a smile
upon my face,
go out

and embrace
the moment.

When shifting

back into the grace
and beauty,
love, song and joy abound.

Trust as allusive,
is worthy of such a
 journey.

Pixels

The pixels were beginning to form into an image—positive and negative spaces around each and one another—connecting with absence and presence of forms .  The highlights emphasized that which existed, and suggested that which might appear—but had not yet—as in the water colour painting that suggests through white cellulose paper, the sunlight, clouds, waves and their froth, smiles, and gaiety.

The absence of colour--the very purity of all essence—halos on angels, glowing hearts, pearl necklaces and brides' flowing gowns—essences without edges—the flow and movement of life and ultimately, growth—for all life is chaotic change—energy in constant flux—our aliveness and ability to thrive in the in-betweens and the peaks and valleys.  

The string of moments held together creating form that reflects our nature—our character—our pattern—and to which we claim our unique Self and the Universe in which our Soul journey flies and thrives.
