Journey's End

Older than time,am I the Ancient of Days?
I have been stone and metal, microbe and plant, mountain and planet and sea, bird and beast  and reptile.
Driven before the storm of illusion, I have passed through countless wombs ; pursued by the furies of fear and desire, I have changed shapes and forms a trillion times, never finding my rest.
Yet, who am I that persists down the canyons of the ages?
Nothing but gathered information, dregs of the dreamtime, faded files on the magnetic field of the information layer, flotsam and jetsam accumulated on the invisible shore.
I cannot remember all the bodies I have used and discarded in my desperate and never-ending quest.
Today, in weary exhaustion, I choose to halt this senseless wandering through the worlds.
I let go and dissolve, format my drive, erase all the slates once and for all.
This drop returns irrevocably to the ocean.
The 4 billion years end now.
At last, I am at peace.
At last, I am free.

A Miracle


It’s a miracle… a perfect miracle,
All around me I see magic in the air…love’s ecstasy just blooming everywhere….
All I do each day is simply sit and stare -

Yes it’s a miracle..truly a miracle
Trees know it, clouds feel it, the birds and the beasts and the fishes live it,
The earth sings it, lightning brings it, children play it, wise men say it
Oh it’s a miracle – right here and now for any eye to see.
A miracle – embracing all there is and you and me.


Candlelight and mirrors, starshine in the skies,
Reflections on the water like the sparkle in your eyes
My heart plays an old guitar that’s sometimes out of key
But all it takes is one deep breath and she sounds good again to me…


To sing the miracle- the timeless miracle,
Just close my eyes and dance inside so deep…who is it who dreams this waking sleep?
Nothing to hang on to, nothing at all to keep
For it’s a miracle..a simple miracle
Stars display it, atoms pray it, cells and bones and blood all stay it,
Nothing holds it, everything unfolds it, time and space are born inside it-
Ah such a miracle – so awesome it just takes my breath away!
Enchanting miracle.. infinite delightful goddess-play!

Secret dreams and visions, serpent fire rising high,
Closer than a heartbeat yet further than the sky,
I laugh out loud at the whole go-round and how it came to be
That all of creation is dancing right here inside me!

This sweet miracle…rest right here, there is no place to go
For it’s a miracle – just drop your mind and you will know

The Miracle.

PERFECTION


This is perfect. That is perfect.

I am perfect. You are perfect.

The land and the Sea and the heavens are perfect.

The birds and the beasts and the insects are perfect.

Atoms and cells , stars and galaxies, clouds and trees, lives and deaths, rebirths and resurrections are perfect.

Subtract the perfect from the perfect – only the perfect remains.

Divide the perfect by the perfect – only the perfect remains.

Create the perfect,transform the perfect, destroy the perfect - only the perfect remains.

Have a perfect New Year!
