Poetic PEACE Pilgrimage – Day 333 – November 14, 2014

Named Trees 14 Oregon Japanese Garden 2-23-14 Tree

venture out into the bluster

to have a heart to heart with a beloved friend

stark and naked now, she stands in beauty still

arms outstretched offering sanctuary and soulace

whispering emphatically to come inside and be, just be

methinks this moment is for listening to sage tree

to come inside and rest in beauty

being home in harmony…

Named Trees 6 Heart Tree++

the great turning unfolds serendipitously on day 325 of the pilgrimage as like the windswept leaves we dance through the river of Portalandia arriving in a friendly space to make a stone pilgrimage down memory lane… thank you for the perfect decompression chamber following the momentous move, the space to be, just to be in silence – what an extraordinary gift! And, it’s the Taurus Full Moon inspiring deeper grounding of all the seeds planted between the eclipses… our cup runneth over…. thank you, thank you, thank you…

Named Open Heart 5 Lotus

these words perfectly reflect today’s pilgrimage which begins in the shadows of feeling small and not up to the challenges of the moment… breathing in prana from the earth mother and up through the extended root system into every cell and radiating out the golden light into father sky and beyond…

always coming home to the heart, to the garden of peace, being present in the moment, in the presence of the beloved… resting in the stillpoint, the unchanging, taking a pregnant pause in a moment of feeling so stretched and uncomfortable right before birth… in this moment of presence, i open more fully to this outer move as birthing the new… surrendering to nature, to love and creating from this sacred space… YES! to full blooming lotushood…

Named Gene Key 3 Innocence

I was thinking beforehand about where the pilgrimage would take me today – yes, i’m a very slow learner “forgetting” that all i had to do was show up – i certainly wouldn’t trade the wild journey that unfolded for my mapped out domesticated version. Listening so deeply to heart whispers, i trod the radiant rainbow trail coming home to and being fully present in the child heart trusting completely and surrendering to the sacred space of innocence where all is well…

Such a typically raucous kind of Portalandia Day with an amazingly energizing gathering of the Death Cafe followed by attempting to drive a car on the roads that hundreds of Naked Bike Riders had taken over for this annual event….

Seems i was in very good company being naked in the now…
