Flow

Wind, air, the birds fill me
Aliveness in the air

The music, the symphony awake me
Singing, delighting, dancing
Such joy

Robins, cardinals, chickadees, hummingbirds, sparrows
All let me know the day begins in the flow

Surrendering to Love

Opened, softened, satiated

Filled, fulfilled, happy

Nothing, emptied, claimed

Tears, giggles, the depth of all women's pain

Your presence and power open the gates

To unveil hurt, rage, vulnerability and sweet love

Our union is ancient

Your eyes are those of a Roman god, a Gaelic warrior, or the wonder of a little boy

Here I worship you and see in you the Divine Transcending earthly matters Time no longer exists

I revel in where u have taken me

A place so surrendered, light and open

You have set me free

Stir Me Up

stir me up

draw me down

coax me out

lure me in

your "no's" invite persistence

slower, deeper

until your body livens

and your eyes surrender

your hot softness - begs to be crushed
by my fierce, knowing force you awaken
with your light I lead us into darkness
with relentless love and firm command

To FEEL Alive

In-box, Twitter texts, Facebook
All trying to capture my interest

Going this way, then that
Leaves me feeling scattered, isolated and asking “Am I all that?”

I want to FEEL…
Feel deeply
Feel alive
Feel something
The pulse of aliveness running through me

I open the windows to let life in
The birds are singing, nature is purposely hustling
The breeze moves through what appears still

I go outside, breath in the fresh air
My senses start to awaken

I feel alive again
The air on my face
The cold breeze on my legs
My lungs expanding and contracting
As I breathe so deep
Expanding my long legs up the steep sand dune

I no longer feel alone
I feel alive, sharing life with those around me
The birds, the trees, the bugs

The sand wet in my toes
Water gushing on the shore
I feel full

Winding my way back on a muddy trail, mush under my toes
Wet, fresh, green everywhere
I feel God, life’s connected energy forces, filling me

I am happy, FEELING so ALIVE

I Don't Know What To Do....

The days wane on
My purpose feels gone

Gift my men, the fruits of my heart
Food, home and loving are my art

In a box so beautiful and contained
Yearning to feel full; it can't be feigned

Food, alcohol, do their best
To pleasure me, distract me and full fill me

Leaving me duller, fatter - yet not satisfied - I seek to be fully gratified
More, more, more - I want it all

Action, connection, depth - do I feel into others at all?
Remembering who I am - Divine Love, no gesture too small

When lost in my thoughts....
I desire to remember to plug in to Love's call

New Lover

Into the night
You take me

Hearts meld
Eyes feel

What was once an act that scratched our surfaces
Now, pure union, giving for bliss

Yearning, offering
Penetrating with your depth

Steady, fierce, knowingly taking...
Having all you want

Pressing in your darkness
Desires so wanton

Too improper to speak
Shredding me to pieces

No boundaries to stop you
Unrestrained, unsuppressed and untamed love

Yearning for more
Death and obliteration

Feeling your heart's passion and desire
Opens me wider

All is yours
To have and take

Devotion, devouring
You - unfolded this flowering

Our hearts open
Nothing matters
God's love is flowing

Radiant One

Dear Radiant One,

Your smile, your sigh open me to the heavens
You pierce me with the light from your heart

Soften and fill me with your eye's smile
Let your voice sing with pleasure and delight

Your undulating body moves with the pulse of light
Your softness, allows us to awaken to the day

Navigating thru our relationships, feeling what's needed
Patiently absorbing the sharp edges

Your softness and warmth
Ready us for the coming day
