Dissolving the Shadows

The human psyche
has the proclivity
to retain all the
shadows of our life
in an effort to keep us safe

But don’t allow
these shadows
to eclipse
your fulfilling
and joyous moments

For it is Joy
that raises your vibration
and increases your Light
to effortlessly dissolve
these antiquated shadows

In every moment
you have choice. . . .

To live in the shadows
or
Shine your Light.

Ancient Dream

An ancient dream
is emanating from within us
awakening humanity
from our hypnosis
of the illusion

An ancient dream
emanating from within
is singing us
into a new existence
inseparable from our Soul

Allow your inner world
to be at peace

Allow your inner world
to become silent

To hear the sacred songs
that foster our remembrance

Awakening us
awakening all of humanity
to a new way of being
in resonance and fluidity
with our Divinity.

Ability to Receive

So much of our lives
have felt bereft
living in anticipation
waiting for something
something compelling
something imminent
something prodigious
something vast

That time is now
All That Is
present in the here and now

Once we realize
our own Divinity
“I desire. . . .”
easily transforms to
“I AM. . . .”

And like magic
ALL is available to us
awaiting our ability
to receive.

Mystery within the Mundane

It is our belief
in the illusion of separation
between the human and divine
that holds our precious dreams at bay

These mystical dreams
have always been here
seeded in the stardust and light codes
flowing through our ancient bloodlines

It is via our relationship
with the simplicity of life
and deep sensual experiences
that we know the ground is sacred

It is within this sacredness
that we discover the mystery
within the mundane
where all our dreams reside.

Gratitude for the Soul

What if. . .
instead of asking
for healing
or prayers
from others
we realize
the true Power
to shift things
lies within us
rather than outside
of ourselves

What if. . .
we realize that
the anguish
we’re experiencing
is a “gift”
in service to us
to shift us into
more expanded consciousness
and ultimate well-being
as directed by our own
personal Soul path

When in the thick of
pain, anguish
or discomfort
I give thanks
for the shift
taking place
as the next step
in my Soul path
Herein lies
my peace
and well-being.

Bring Me Home

All my life I’ve been searching
wandering here and there
forever reaching out
looking for true love

What I’ve found has been illusive
here and then gone
oh where is the love
I so desperately need?

Then one day in my search
I saw myself in you
and my heart opened wide
revealing the truth

Love’s never been illusive
it’s been here all along
I’ve been searching way to hard
for what’s always been within

So bring me home
where I’m loved
home for evermore
home to live
deep within my heart

Now love abounds in my heart
and nurtures my true self
No limits, no conditions
pure freedom to express

All my dreams rest here
in the window to my soul
Awaiting to be embraced
and brought into the world

Wisdom lies in my heart
simple and profound
It’s all here within me
everything I need

With my heart at the helm
love just clears the way
And life opens to the max
and floods me with joy

In my heart I wanna live
every moment of the day
If I stray, bring me home
Home, back to my heart.

Soul’s Desire

The soul’s desire is to experience
just for the sake of experiencing

It has no need to validate itself
for it is already complete
in the knowing that it exists

The soul takes everything
the human experiences
distills it into its pure wisdom
drinks it all in and
falls more deeply in love with itself
again and again and again
with every new experience

The intrinsic passion of the Soul
is to experience the eternal fullness of life.

Dark Night of the Soul

There is no
dark night of the Soul

For the soul
has never devolved
into the polarity
of dark vs light

There is only
the dark night of the human

The human suffering
within the darkness
of its own judgments
of right vs wrong

Until the human awakens
to the call of the Soul
transcending duality
to experience
the freedom
of the Soul.

Song of New Earth

New Earth
no longer an illusion
a dream from afar
now fully present
right here where we are

New Earth
abundant with blessings
of all that she brings
enlivening our dreams
with the song she sings

New Earth
in her bountiful glory
created by you and I
has spread her wings
inviting us to fly.

The Soul Steps In

How many roles
have you created for your self
living them out to abide by
what has been expected
of you by others?

How many times
have you lost your self
in the belief that
those roles are truly
who you are?

Until the overwhelm
of maintaining the roles
of who you are not
amidst the noise of the audience
becomes too much to bear

Feeling compelled to step off
the time worn stage
out of the costumed role
that was never yours
you step into the arms of silence

From within this silence
your sacred Soul steps in
pouring forth your true essence
with a joyous passion for life
inviting you to create anew.
