to bring us home with every breath

deepening and widening the arc our one heart

from me to thee to we

dancing the path of great mystery

Named Trees 23 Kaua'i 11-23-14 016 Home

loving the endless path we all traverse

thankful for this moment to converse

silently with ocean, trees, clouds, rain, new moon

gracefully dwelling in mother water’s womb

~

it’s been a long day’s journey into night, one of those days of pure delight when carried on the wings of love, i arrive home to the coo of a dove… listening raptly to the sound of the surf and to the birds’ joyous song of the earth, transported gently across the peaceful sea, this is the moment to simply be… may we all be at ease, may we all be peace…

Named Trees 22 Treehouse+

new moon in sag offers a perfect time to plant seeds and so i spend this day being organic farmer out in the field… re-membering the inspiring days of Camelot, i sow seeds of peace… looking forward to holi days with loved ones, i scatter seeds of love and gratitude… breathing deeply through our one heart, i plant seeds in a serpentine pattern for spiral dancing along our sacred path…

with each breath, another seed, with each seed, more deepening into stillness, with more deepening, everything slows down attuning to the heartbeat of the cosmos…

may we all breathe in the beauty of this moment trusting our one heart to guide us home…

Named Trees 21 Celebration Sungazing at Wyeth CO Installation 015

as the winds whistle through and trees dance wildly like ocean waves in a nor’easter, i am, like my childhood hero, wrapped in peace feeling earth spirits moving us along the path at the speed of light while water loosens and carries away baggage unnecessary for our journey… moment after moment of inspiration, of breathing in and walking in beauty, of being peace in the center of the wheel, the field, the sacred hoop, the web of life… i love our being peace in this moment as we walk each other home…

Named Trees 20 Heart Tree++

the heart of this tree, a childhood favorite haunting place, pulls me inside today giving the space for quiet integration of the momentous move of the last few moons… so much is coming in during this great turning and what once worked sems to now be obsolete as if we all have a new operating system and no manual…

so, i come home to the heart to sit in emptiness, to just be in this moment and breathe in the rhythm of the waves grounding myself in earth mother as the wind blows through and ignites a wildfire out of heart’s embers…

surrendering to the path of heart, sitting in emptiness in the stillpoint of creation, i await the birth of the new from the ashes of the old as darkness turns into light…

Named Trees 19 Whalewatching 2014 016

currents are moving so fast, it feels like chaos as in primordial space, the stillpoint of creation where we give birth to dancing stars… come home with me into the watery womb, the deep ocean of being, and breathe in the rhythm of the waves… breathing into the love we are, breathing out what no longer serves, opening space for even more boundless love to flow through…

as the moon wanes into new and darkness approaches, now is the moment for water beings to ride the wild surf, to feel it coursing through and like the moon, re-emerge anew from the sea re-membering our nature as dancing light, divine love, deep peace…

Named Trees 16 Rhody Garden 6-1-14 023+

waking dream of being in a flood… how do i handle this disaster?  thanks to a friend for offering support and an emergency kit… i’ve always believed we can make it through anything as long as there’s another beating heart with us, thousandfold thanks, Colleen, for moving me from emergency to emerge and see…

like others before, the flood blesses me with the knowing that it/s the season of being Joan of Ark and building a sanctuary deep in the heart to be sacred surrender, to dance with divine mystery, to be my story, mystery…

from this moment, i love being true refuge in unfolding mystery…
