260 opportunity

The past and future

Blend and shift,

Mere mists in time.

I sit with mindfulness

And

Realise

The change that unfolds

Only

In this

Sacred

Now.

I allow

the ebb and flow

of life

to wash over me

I watch

and know

this precious moment 

of pristine clarity

in which I can

Sing

my

soul-song

even

in the desert 

of most profound isolation 

my soul pulses 

with the heartbeat of all

Life

It takes a mind

No longer addicted to drama

Or 

No longer in love with pain

to 

Recognize

Reality

In its mantle of light

And all is well

254 deception

In a world

Of things 

Pretending to be what they're not

It is easy to believe

That

Faking it, is making it

252 innocence

There are 

Things

That

Cannot be un-seen

Words

That

Cannot be un-said

Insights

That

Cannot be un-thought

And yet

I still choose

To live each day

With 

Simplicity

And

Wonder.

253 peace

Embracing the Storm,

I taste the Chaos

And

Realise

My lack of peace

Is

My choice.

I stay here

Stuck

Forgetting

My wings

And

Watch

With envy

Those

Who dare

To fly.

249 choices

How many more

Generations

Will get to enjoy

That which we

Take for granted?

Will

Our Species

Save

Or will it

Destroy

All that makes us

Human?

248 awakened eyes

My capricious mind

Decides

If something is 

Beautiful

Or if it is a

Nuisance.

How many times

Has 

Something wonderful

Passed

Unnoticed

Right under

My

Nose?

In our part of the galaxy.

246 tribe

I have not been cast adrift

In this life,

Like some lone traveller

Destined

To solitary paths.

I am the product

Of a 

Thousand

Thousand

Loves.

And I am

Raised up

On the shoulders

Of

Giants.

245 pause

There

Is always time,

To share

A moment

With friends.

To sacrifice that

Is to lose

Your soul.

244 jewelled joker

Mother Nature,

At her 

Maternal best,

Constantly reminds me

To get

With the jest.

The absurdity of Life,

The inevitableness of Death,

Tells me

Always

To savour each breath.

243 mystic jungle

Although my path is paved,

With sidewalk and street cafe,

In a darkened alley

Wildness calls.

Sweetly dangerous,

It reminds me

There is

Always

More to life

Than

This.

It is not by chance

The sands of the desert

Are stained

There will be a day

When all of Humankind

Realises

That what they took for granted

Was

In fact

More precious

Than they ever imagined.

007 vista

Sometimes

I am so caught up

In the Climb

I forget

To savour the view.

Sometimes

The reward is not

To arrive.

Sometimes

The greatest gift

Is steeped

In the beauty on the path

That I choose 

To perceive.

There are those dark nights

When I forget

And these bones.

And see

My Light

Reflected back at me.

The paths,

There is always

A way.

Wonder not at Nature's Marvels

Her Imagination

Resides in your

Neural pathways

And manifests in your

Tears of crystal light, which drip

Of imagined harm,

In a world that

Does not exist.

Where all that is, has been done
and I
am enough.

224 pathways 04

Secret paths of beauty
abound.
Because I have not walked them

But, to enjoy them
means
I must abandon the
well trodden paths
that I haunt,
and embrace the unknown.

unwraps in my heart

I choose,
and thrive,
no longer afraid.
