now

i am wide
open
and deep with heartsongs
that promise release from the
past
and dis-ease.
i embody poWer from the greaT AutHor
of the sun, moon, and stars ALL
living [living]
in me as
liGht,
as the miracle,
as the pOetry of my NOW.


NOW
i choose to ✧
expand
focus
know
write
create
breathe
slowdown
LOve

NOW
i will receive ✧
comfort
appreciation
kindness
assistance
clients
money

NOW
i release ✧
➙the secret feelings of inferiority
➙my concept of money and earning
➙my past relationships
➙grudges {self-defense}
➙blame
➙paper clutter {i got a kindle to replace the TONS of books in my apt!}

NOW - i trade in WANTing for PRAYer instead.

A moment of happiness,
you and I sitting on the verandah,
apparently two, but one in soul, you and I.
We feel the flowing water of life here,
you and I, with the garden's beauty
and the birds singing.
The stars will be watching us,
and we will show them
what it is to be a thin crescent moon.
You and I unselfed, will be together,
indifferent to idle speculation, you and I.
The parrots of heaven will be cracking sugar
as we laugh together, you and I.
In one form upon this earth,
and in another form in a timeless sweet land.

as the Light of this new year shines in you, what does it illuminate?
