The River
emotions / black rocks of carved perception
born / take shape / solidify
impermanent / the river flows constantly changing
drops of water / renewing
the past / the future
arriving / destination flows in-between
birth / death / no absolute
continuously changing the river alive
renewing / never the same twice
mindfully / rocks disappear
give way / movement / freedom
‘I am here’! waist deep in the river of life
Ebb and Flow
patterns disengage, in search of balance
seasons as tides, exchange times energy
cycles of quietness and space - fundamental
as waves of the sea swell
energy and passion eventually, cry out
up - down, back - forth
natural desire intrinsic
deeply profound
bone and marrow essential
…
tides ebb and flow
circulating life’s energy
trust the internal electricity
gravity understands its role
force of attraction
one body - one soul timeless
…
pure energy
instinctively flows up stream
magnetic frequencies
generate towards an upward ascent
re-engaged patterns balanced
source of life consummated
cycles of speeding light dance
sharing the sun’s energy
stars align
as destiny’s power, ebbs, and flow’s
