Ode to the Winged Ones

Posted on by

There’s a whir in the air
as hummingbirds whiz by
sprinkling their blessings of Joy
from flower to flower
they pass the day
sipping the delicious nectar
of the Goddess.

Then to my surprise
they divert their path
flying straight for my nose,
then hover aloft eye to eye
with Love and Appreciation
for kindred spirits and beings of Joy
we share this planet with Glee.

On a breeze from the sea
an illustrious dragonfly
sashays into this dance,
with it’s translucent wings
reflecting colors galore
my eyes all glitter
in joyous childlike delight.

The essence of nature
picks up the hummm and adds
her harmonious etudes
from the base of her roots
to the tips of her leaves
she lifts the veils
that no longer elude us.

Ahoy, the dance has fully begun
the hummer, the dragonfly, nature and me
with glissandos floating
from the strings of my harp
in this majestic dance of Love
in eternal Gratitude for this Planet so grande
and her offerings of Beauty and Joy.

Our Innate Sensuality

Posted on by

As our consciousness expands
with worlds within worlds
we are realizing ourselves as
physical beings unaccustomed
to living multidimensionally
and multidimensional beings
unaccustomed to being in physicality

And thus the adventure begins!!!

When Soul embodiment is initiated
we are like newborns
learning how to be in physicality
simultaneously
recognizing ourselves as master creators
blending and harmonizing the two

As embodied Souls living in physicality
we have the holy ability
to experience every nuance of life
with our innate sensuality
becoming more and more sensitive to life
as it presents itself

Allow your sensuality
to ground you in the present moment
allow your sensuality
to act as your point of focus
in a new reality of infinite potentials

Recognize sensuality
as your sacred gift
and receive the pleasure it offers
for you are a Divine Human Being
in an illustrious physical body
walking this planet
as master creators
for the pure purpose of Joy.

You are a Master Creator

Posted on by

You have spent lifetimes
creating your own Universe,
via your dreamtime,
your meditations,
your desires,
and your actions
a life that continues to evolve
per your innate instructions.

Yes!
You innately know how to do this!
How could you not
for you are a Master Creator
who has created worlds
within worlds.

‘Tis time to enjoy
ALL you have created
with the directives
of your Sacred Heart.
‘Tis time to live in Joy!!!

Joy of Life

Posted on by

The current renaissance
is in full swing
initiated by those
whose hearts are bursting
with the innate knowledge
that earth was created
for the Joy of Life.

We have become
the Divine artisans
of that original intention
by expanding consciousness
and dreaming in
a new way of being
in physicality.

Thus, as the old world
is busy sorting itself out
we have risen
to new heights
flying beyond
the old ways
without the need for wings.

Our dreams
are being lifted
by the Power of Love
sustained by
the Power of Love
and created
with the Power of Love.
.
We know that
Love is all there is….
and therein lies the Joy of Life.

Untethered by the Mind

Posted on by

Drifting in the expansiveness
untethered by the mind
unsure of where to turn
or what to do
because this freedom
boggles the mind.

Trust the innate process
for there’s a knowing
in the depth of your cells
that understands life
in it’s purest
most divine form.

See the world
like a child
in joyful wonderment
living in the moment
free of expectations
with eyes wide open.

Allow that wonderment
to reveal itself
as new divine harmonies
orchestrate an expanded soul song
originating from
the depth of your heart.

Engaging in New Magic

Posted on by

In days gone past
spells were cast
passed down from age to age
attempting to shape
and manipulate the world
by bending energy
to one’s will

Those days are gone
for we have realized
that energy can not be bound
‘tis a mind of it’s own
energy has
by maintaining balance
and always seeking resolution

The magic of old
with it’s attempted control
is dissolved by the Elementals
as we flow with the energies
straight from our hearts
we’re engaging in new magic

‘Tis with the magic of Love
the magic of Joy
the magic of the Divine
there’s no need to manipulate
nor attempt to bind
for our energy
now flows freely.

The Joy of the Fae

Posted on by

The faeries don’t use pen and ink
they write their messages in the air
then with a puff of breath
and a sprinkle of magic
send them sweetly soaring
to the likes of you and me.

So, if you want to communicate
with with the creatures of nature
a whisper is all you need
their hearing is vast
and response instantaneous
with an innate desire to please.

I wonder sometimes
of their ever joyous state
as they flitter to and fro
without regard of their minions
who refuse to honor their life
or even acknowledge their existence.

We’ve much to learn
from our faerie friends
and the number one thing is JOY
for to dance through life
sprinkling glitter and light
’tis very much in demand.

Spinning Tales of Glee

Posted on by

How often I have heard
that fairytales aren’t true
often enough
that I believed it.

The young ones
know the truth
of what is real,
just go and ask them.

What you will find
is the Joy and DeLight
that has been surreptitiously
hidden from you.

I propose that
fairytales are true
and have been written
to reminder us of what’s real.

So who do you
choose to believe
those who spin tales of woe,
or those who spin tales of Glee.

Your Highest Calling

Posted on by

Stop asking yourself…..
what is my purpose in life,
what am I here to do,
for these are mental games
enacted by the egoic self to feel worthy.

You are already worthy
there is nothing you need do
to prove that
to yourself
or anyone else.

Instead, ask yourself
“what am I feeling”
for your feelings
are the language of your heart
guiding you every step of the way
moment by moment.

The heart doesn’t play games
the heart doesn’t have an agenda
the heart has nothing to prove
the heart knows who you are.

When you follow your feelings
you will know
ALL of Who You Are
and
how to best ENJOY life,
which is what you are here to do.

You may ask,
what of everyone else
what can I do for the world
what can I do for humanity?

BE the example of Love and Joy
fully lived, fully expressed
per the guidance of your heart
that is your Highest Calling.
BE the example.

I Am Here

Posted on by

I am not here to philosophize,
I’ve done more than enough of that.
My mind is overwrought
with insubstantial explanations.

I am here
to jump into the stream of life
to experience the rush of exhilaration
with the discovery of the unknown.

I am here
to taste, savor, sip, and sup
upon all the rich nuances
of each glorious delicacy that life presents.

I am here
to nourish my soul
fulfill the yearnings of my heart
to create something that’s never been before.

I am here
to experience
All That Is
in this very moment.

I am here
to add my Love and Light
to the world
without judgement or restriction.

I am here
to Create Life Anew.
