To be the music
held
in the pause
resonating meaning in its depth
a vibration of sacred felt
not heard
Fill me with your notes
so I can feel your music
play me
as my soul sings your song back to you
with love

To be the music… held

Underneath the surface of the sky

Underneath the surface of the sky
clouds ripple clarity in stillness
A clear mind
as seen beneath gentle waves
Muffled reflections
in an upside down reality
of what is
Language of breath…

Her own storm…

Sadness held in a parallel plane..

Driving past that old cinderblock house, I only remember the happiness that bloomed there. Our first house, the one where we grew from a couple to a family. In an instant, I see my now grown son as a baby doing a soldier crawl on the beige tile floors. I hear music coming from the back pool, and the laughter of friends who have since moved away.
Where do the memories of the tears go? The bitter arguments. The feelings of neglect. The endless power struggle to hold on to myself while becoming immersed in motherhood.
Do the tears I shed now, out of a clear blue mind, fall from the pain of another me in a parallel plane? One too strong willed to cry. One too weak to show her vulnerability as she slowly became invisible in her own life.
Drive by memories of what used to be and what continues to breathe
somewhere else …
Even the rain paused …

Reflections of sky
always most calm
after the storm
Torrents of emotion released from the clutch of darkness
bring a dawn of understanding
Clarity
paints possiblities
in the wake of a shadow’s slow crawl
Mother Nature
in her wonder
guides me through beauty
to know the world
as myself
To be me
beautifully
