Sun!
the house sparrows
in the bush
are whispering
about your arrival

turn around
look back with no regrets
allow compassion to fill you
and spill over into eternity

bring me your pain
bring me your joy
pain or joy
I am here with you
together in One

gentle
as a rose bud opens
one petal at a time
no hurry
for Divine unfolding

father sun
you come again
evaporating darkness
blazing your Light across our future
blessing each of us with your warmth

heart – you are my best friend

you never lie

simple, plain, ordinary

you know what you love

I am awake
like a bird in springtime
the mystery
has adopted me
filled me with song

like a necklace of pearls

we string together

each shining

to make a river of Light

I don’t have any pearls, so I am using this photo of my friend’s hands quilting. 🙂

calm me with a prayer

of words

open my heart to sing
