Heavy with love


See the blossom
see how it falls
through grace
in love with itself
There is no other
but this dance
that sings of itself
to find itself within me

Being rich with all that is
full and in love
heavy with it
Oh love be all that you are
make that soul dance
with your sweet taste on it’s tongue
you have brought me here to do
things one way only
the way of truth

The petal falls in the garden
of  knowledge
how beautiful it is!
how ripe!
there is no other

Glorious is your name
Oh God
I am one with you
you have sought me out
Oh love you have found me
in full rejoicement
we will celebrate for all of time
never alone
but singing for all eternity
your holiness

Sweet is thy fruit
heavy on the branch
return my friend
to find me
sitting in the garden
when one enters there is no return
and why would one want to
go anywhere else?

Where have you gone sweet heaven
seek me out
come find me behind the back door
in the garden
where I am waiting
Sing your song loud in my ears
like a rush
through me and in me
I shiver here
waiting for you

ponder this


part of you is lost
but the other part is found always
this is kind of funny
How can there be two of you?
please soul ponder this
because you are and have
always been
One

dear traveller



My dear traveller
your port is right here
and so is your land
if you look inside
and see what you have
come to be
you need not go
anywhere

Light



Light is not an outside phenomena
but an inside reality
when the shadows fall

this light so full...


the living waters dwell within
the heart 
where the sun shines of itself 
and lights up the manifestations 
to be seen
like a background that is everything 
and nothing 

it shines single and pure 
timeless 
as the original nature 
it shines present, living 
it does not move out of this 
way of beauty 
it does not move out of this way
of heart 

this light so full
is the unguent of grace 
it delivers healing light 
to the wounds of mental divisions 
it delivers salve made of light, love,
stillness, calm waters, shining heart 
shining singularity, shining presence,
shining love, shining non-duality
it delivers ointment made of that which 
is whole 

this ointment so pure 
gives a seeing that is not of the senses
a seeing that is clarity
to know all is one fullness and never 
divided as two 
it heals that which was never wounded 
it heals that which was never opened by doubt, 
fear, trepidation, loneliness, pride, vanity, confusion
of all sorts and ways
it heals that which was always healed
which is the thing not understood
for how it heals is, 
by taking the thought that something is wounded away
by taking the thought that something was harmed away
by taking the thought that something was injured away
by taking the thought that something was done to a body 
and mind away
by taking the thought that all that is seen is apart and outside away
by taking the thought that freedom is outside away
by taking the thought that freedom is won by a persona away
by taking the thought that freedom is a concept to be earned away
by taking the thought that freedom is accumulating wealth and status away
by taking the thought that freedom is gained as an object away
by taking the thought that freedom is gained by effort away
by taking the thought that freedom is perfecting oneself away
this ointment heals by removing thoughts 
for thoughts are what bring one to believe in the false
(or bring one to believe that the body and mind are who
and what you truly are)
this ointment of light heals in a way that is different than other 
types of healing 
it heals of grace and in grace and always, always forever grace

truth



the mind is so used to gaining something by effort..
this is not truth...
truth cannot be *won* or *gained* in the way of  adding to
one's stock of good and bad..
and right and wrong within...
there are no checks and balances with it...
it is completely balanced already...

under your shelter, oh grace



this morning what was seen was a massive tree 
glorious in the morning light 
a glow of  golden light grew larger and larger underneath
it and coming thru it 
behind silhouettes of mountains dark and earthy
could be viewed 
the light beamed and looked like melting butter 
the glow grew larger and larger moving and changing 
shapes, so alive looking 
a form was seen walking towards the tree
and then stood under it viewing the lovely
display of networking of branches, leaves and tiny
buds of new life that grew from the solid structure 
the form sat down and is in meditation position
the leaves begin to fall like an artistry of colorful
green blowing in the wind and spiraling to the earth
there is pure silence around the scene 
the form is very still except for now and then looking up
at the light coming thru the branches making the leaves 
light up to a shade of delicate light green



a poem with this vision

fragrant as the meadow alive with scents 
and colorful beauty 
the world appears as a dream 
the one that comes to sit and be still 
in it's colorful wonder 
and listens to the rising and falling of 
sounds and manifestations of all sorts 
and listens to his thoughts that play about 
like mischievous waves on the ocean of 
life 
and hears them without wanting to alter them 
or personalize them 
and sees the transient nature of them 
and questions the identifications that bind 
one to believing that the body and mind are 
who and what you are 
that one can begin to travel deeper to the source 
little by little 

and 

earth, wind, fragrance of life 
pour out your honey into my cup 
and i will drink it as if it is my last 
opportunity to give myself to thee 
oh grace 
save this soul from desires that 
burn like a lantern that will not easily 
go out 
for i am one that is pure in wanting to know 
the real 
and i have sat here within your creations so 
heart achingly beautiful in the way of coming 
in color, style, fragrance, poetic verse of visual
delights that are transient in nature 
and i have lost myself to them to be happy
but i now am seated silent, holy, open to you
under the tree of your shelter that is a tapestry 
of living beauty that delights me so much 
i am not budging from this place in my 
heart until i find the source 
and die there to your blessings that rain 
their mercy on all
