Life has slowed to a snail's pace
Hiatus from the busy and the buzz
I am the center of a deepening darkness,
the emptiness of infinite space.
I begin to fall to sleep, slowly, peacefully and dream…
I spin in circles with my skirt flaring out around me
Leaves falling down, getting caught in my hair, rustling beneath my feet
Autumnal scents fill my being with great memories of my yesterdays and fanciful dreams of my tomorrows
As I spin around, my life changes
As the Earth begins her nap, my life changes
As the world slows and the leaves fall and the chill fills the air, my life changes.
The phoenix rises from the blackened ash.
The saplings rise from the burned forest ground.
The winter gives way to spring, and life begins anew.
A heart remembers, yet slowly heals, though reminisces through time.
The birds rejoice once again.
varied skies…all orange…with gray clouds hovering….
slight drops wetting my face
inspecting my hand closely, i know
the whole cosmos comes together here
in this minute moment
i've forgotten the metropolitan
the societies in their brainless existence
the hum and rattle that is the noise of life un-thought of
not forgotten, perhaps
just not realized
profound and deep beauty, the deepest beauty, lies in simplicity
A bird song….a butterfly
The intricacy of a leaf….that lustful sunset
To let these moments pass unnoticed is to not live fully.
To only pause and breathe and exist in just one moment, without thought, without pain, without doubt
Only to be what God made you, and to feel your connection to All that is.
It fills the heart and eases the mind.
