silence, my friend!
Silence, my friend!
I feel you once again
Surrounding me and enveloping me
like a warm, protecting cloak.
Your radiance permeates my world.
With each breath you flow into me.
Every cell of my body opens to drink its fill of you.
My eyes feel you flowing out to every object
as you coat them like honey.
Every sound is you taking shape
in fine vibrations touching my ear.
I decipher each noise as your sweet voice
talking to my heart of your noiseless presence.

it came from, from winter or a river.
I don’t know how or when, Continue reading

don’t take the second step

close in,
the step
you don’t want to take. Continue reading

A New Day, A New Gift…
POEM
by Marco Missinato
A new day, a new gift…
Those out there in the other realms have no clue
Of the deliciousness of being on Earth,
Feeling the contrast and the low densities
And still choosing Love and Gratitude
Feeling the intensity of the severe separations
And still choosing Peace and Oneness
Nature
Nature
Unfolding of hidden treasures while inwardly breath quakes
This untold sensation of revelation finer than the firing of synapses, finest spray of sparks illuminating being
My inner human tongue forms language like the earthworm the soil
I break open and speak the sounds of the cosmos to itself, standing face to face with a friend, a fellow worm

This Love
This Love
Unconditional
Inexorable
Irresistible
It is.
A force more pervasive than the ether and more forceful than an avalanche
It is.

Letting Go…
Author Unknown – Original post here.
Letting Go…
She let go of the fear.
She let go of the judgments.
She let go of the confluence of opinions swarming around her head.
She let go of the committee of indecision within her. She let go of all the ‘right’ reasons.

Open Your Heart to the World
Open your heart to the world
Vulnerable I am
Can I be hurt?
When hurt is our daily bread
There is only one move to make – open more
How can I find out if my life will be equal to this hurt?
Going for shelter in this storm will kill me
