New Purpose

Posted on by

To see with new eyes
To hear with new ears
often requires us to retreat
from our current lives
for a moment, an hour, a day

When we walk away from
what no longer serves us
what no longer nurtures us
we often feel the gnawing need
to fill the void.

But do not allow
your human insecurities
to seduce you into
filling your sacred space
with useless distractions.

For once you are
reacquainted with your Divinity
once you know your GodSelf
you will realize
there never was a void.

For all of life
flows effortlessly
through you, as you
with new purpose
as the simple Love of Life.

Forgiveness

Posted on by

Forgiveness is a Divine Gift of Grace
that opens our hearts to Love
with the innocence of a child
allowing everyone equal footing
beyond blame or guilt
to be right and true to their own GodSelf.

I Am Magnificent!

Posted on by

I AM MAGNIFICENT !!!
I am magnificent and I know it!
In the past I could not accept
a compliment from someone else
let alone compliment myself

I was taught
it wasn’t nice
it was egoic
it wasn’t humble

Well I’m here to tell you
I am exceedingly magnificent
because I AM the Divine
in physical form
and so are YOU.

Allow your Magnificence to Shine!!

Honor Your Own Knowing

Posted on by

Don’t turn your power over
to anyone outside yourself
angels, light beings, or an external God
who has not been in a human body.

How can a disembodied being possibly know
how to respond to our physical world?

You are here in a physical body
everything you need to know is inside you
and only you know how to respond
in the present moment

There was a time we needed to be awakened
and reminded of who we truly are
thus we are grateful for all the guidance
we have received along the way

Now that we are have awakened
to our own Divine Knowing
as Master Creators in our own right
it is time to stop searching outside ourselves

It is time
to step into our sovereignty
to be true to our GodSelf
and honor our Divine Knowing.

Relationship with Self

Posted on by

When we are comfortable
in our relationship with our Self
we become open and comfortable
in relationship to everyone
and everything else in our lives
and the need to conform
to someone we are not
to please another
simply dissolves.

Neutrality of Words

Posted on by

 

Thoughts and words are neutral
it’s only our perception and intent
that give them power

Is your perception loving
compassionate and empowering
or resentful, judgmental and victimizing
you toward others
others toward you
but more importantly
you toward yourself?

Rose of Sharon

Posted on by

Petals unfurl in the shimmering mist
in velvet folds, soft and rich
droplets of dew shine like pearls
on you, the rose of Sharon.

Your fragrance fills the air so sweet
wafting across hills and vales
in the rapture of morning’s light
you, the rose of Sharon.

It hasn’t always been this way
a life of velvet and sweet perfume
many a blossom failed to open
as the rose of Sharon.

Thorns appear where never planned
at the time it may bring tears
but in the end tears turn to dew
crowning the rose of Sharon.

Now your petals unfurl in the sun
dancing in the sway of the breeze
sweet and sensual, fragrant and free
you, the rose of Sharon.

You’re the rose of Sharon
a beautiful rose of Sharon
Love embodied, radiant light
a beautiful, beautiful rose.

Love embodied, radiant light
a beautiful, beautiful rose.
a beautiful rose of Sharon.

“Consumed by Love” or “The Beloved One”,

Spell of Love

Posted on by

Every morning when you awaken
feel my arms wrapped around you
at night as you drift asleep
there I await you
through the day I hover around you
making sure you’re safe and well.

I’m your ego tried and true
always been here to carry you through
just like children we fought each other
each one wanting our own way
getting nowhere we’ve finally matured
to see our errors and mend our ways.

Now it’s time for me to step aside
to the truth of who you are
all your wishes are granted now
since you cast a spell of love on me
You are my beloved
you are the Beloved One.

Shall we dance hand in hand
in perfect union step by step
to the music of the Divine
all in perfect harmony
You are my beloved
together we are Beloved.

Let’s splash our colors across the page
sing our songs all day long
may our light shine out in the world
to be all we can be.
You are my beloved.
you are the Beloved One.

Together we are Beloved.

Temple of Love

Posted on by

Temple of love I sing to thee
Here I lay my head.
Temple of love I bring to thee
All I’ve ever been.

Here I sit within your womb
nurtured by your care
completely free of fear and doubt
filled with your grace.

At last I’ve gathered all of me
acceptance without bounds
cherishing the self I’ve found
in darkness and in light.

I’ve finally met my sacred Self
the one who walks in truth
honoring this noble one
in her humble form.

My inner diamond’s radiance
is bright and all aglow
emitting facets tried and true
polished and whole.

Oh sacred heart
my home of homes
beloved temple of love
I sing with you forevermore
my beloved temple of love.

Through My Eyes

Posted on by

See your self through my eyes
Deep within me there you lie.
See yourself through my eyes.
We are one, you and I.

Open up your eyes and see
I am you. You are me
Open up your eyes and see
We are two, yet one we be.

Truth bestowed through my eyes
What you see there doesn’t hide.
Truth bestowed through my eyes.
It’s within you I abide.

See yourself as I do
Whole and perfect, yes its true.
See yourself as I do
Through my eyes, a whole new view.

See yourself in my eyes.
See the self you’ve yet to know
See yourself in my eyes.
It’s time you know …. You.
