I Am Each Living Thing

 

In setting skies of dusky sighs
my soul glides

I am the drifting clouds touching heaven
I am the dew forming on shards of grass
giving refreshment to a thirsting earth

I am the living blood coursing through all creatures
worn in body from earthly toil

I sing in harmony with the Cicada’s songs
their shadowy music of life & continuations reflect
Love’s eternal hope

My spirit finds solace in the cooling winds
calling from distant vistas of unseen mountains

I am each living thing
Reborn as darkness falls

It is in God’s arms
that I am home

They all lead me to you

My mind~heart~body~soul

races, beats, aches and dreams

in a million, billion directions

unseen & they all lead

to this moment,

the only one with you in it

Our infinity, us indefinitely

All that you are

All of you leads me

calls me always,

back from the brink

Believe me

you never leave me

I always take my path

back to you

Tell Me

 

 

Tell me what you love

about me

~

Tell me what you love

about my face

my eyes~ my smile

~

Tell me what you love

about

my quirks

and eccentricities

my little ways

that endear you to me

~

Tell me what about me

sets fire

to your heart,

ignites your passions

and wants

burning away all others

in your memory

~

Tell me what makes your body

come alive

when you think of me

~

Tell me what delicious ~ dark 

fantasies you wish to live

with me

~

Tell me how I make

your heart

beat faster

when you see my name

and read my poetry

~

Tell me about everything

you seek

Everything you believe

and dream

~

Tell me how I make you sing

in ways beautiful

easy and new

as I learn from you

~

Tell me as you

take my hand

as I forsake all

others

for only you

Peace

 

in the presence of Peace,

you feel it

an aura of calm

surrounds the skin

a whisper feathers

ink dipped in letters

no longer tethered

being within

all your past waves good-bye

as you gently glide softly slide

sublime serenity

in blue seas of smiles within no enmity

caressing sweetly

singing of beautiful beings belonging

longing for Love to hold onto

longing for Love to belong to

longing for the day

Love finally finds you

Free Spirit

~

I have no time to not fly free

Though physical duty binds

My mind lets me dance beyond
space & time

My soul plays the music

My heart breathes the beat

There sings a universe

of wonder in me
