My King and My Queen
Use me to realize the as yet unseen
Use me to write the new Story of Being.
By your grace, I believe
That each interaction
With the manifest realm
Every touch, every smell
Every taste, every sound
Every sight
Nourishes, heals
and glorifies
This Embodied Being:
Your servant
An open cup
Empty
And Willing
To receive.
I invite
The radiance
of my gods
To fall through
My emptiness
like rain.
Nectar from
the deep earth
Wells up in me
Warm, liquid
and Red.
I choose
My magic now.
I say
And then
What Is.
The dense
The weight
In my throat
Suffocating
On my Power
Unspoke.
Until I open my mouth
And Blessings
Fall out
And wiggle
Away.
Listen!
I am become
A Creatress
of Worlds
Not one part
of the whole
Pulsing mystery
of Things
as They Are
need now change.
I have remembered
By grace
how to bathe
and Waters
To seek me
and wash
Lies away.
I turn my eye
On the Priestess
In the
Pools of the
Temple
Making love
in the glade
Birthing daughters
and Lions
Flowing curtains
of fabric
And Veils
Arrayed.
Singing songs to
the Godhead
Drumming
Dancing and
Weeping and
Praying.
I turn my eye
to the heavens
and my sex
to the earth
I become lithe
and speechless
I dissolve
And give birth.
She was the first
One
I let into my heart
While knowing
All along
We would soon
Part
Savoring
Every moment
Laugh
Hike
Evening exhaustion
While the children
Played
Or complained
Or slept
Gratitude
With a hint of grief
Slowly
Turning into
Grief
With a deep sea
Of gratitude
She was the first one
And I pray
Not the last
I found in you
The most fertile soil
And so
I gave to you
The seeds
Of precious things
Inside of me
I didn’t know
How to grow
I watched
With a catch in my throat
Heart skip
As you
Lovingly
Received
Hands buried deep
In that rich soil
Making
For each seed
A gentle home
For a while
All was sun
And rain
Nourishment
And pain
Even though
I knew
Every day
Those flowers
Flourished and grew
Every moment
I yearned
To visit that garden
To be with you
Ahh yes
Together now
Bare feet
Feel the warmth
As you show me
This garden
We have made
This garden
You maintain
But ohh soul
Ache
When we are apart
Heart bleed
For the part
Of me
I so often
Do not get to see
And ohh those flowers
How they have grown
Lush buds
Open
In full glory
Greeting
The world
With such beauty
I often wish
I could stay here
Forever
Never
Ever
Separate from this garden
These flowers
This connection
Yet one day
I came to the garden
Found it was closed
And I
Could no longer deny
That you have other things
Taking your time
You have your own journey
Apart from mine
And I wept
And wailed
And collapsed at the wall
This wall
I yearned to build
Between us
So I could no longer see
The flower garden
Now
So glaringly
Separate
From me
When the rain of my tears
Touched my own soil
My old soul
Said
This can be a garden
See here?
This can be a flower bed!
It is time
To no longer
Confine
Your pursuits
To a garden far away
Why don’t you stay
Here
Tend
The soil here
Grow flowers here
Don’t you see
You made the seeds!
Those precious flowers
Can be
Yours
My dear
Always present
Always here
So
With love in my eyes
I built my own garden
Ready
To receive
And when
We were together
Once again
We gathered the seeds
Of our mutual love
Our mutual need
And planted them
In my soil
In my soul
Always a testament
To you
To me
And to our
Joint
Journey
I can smell the Love
On your breath
From a mile away
See it seep
From your pores
Form
A cloud
Of gold
The earth trembles
Pleas
To feel the touch
Of your feet
Every step
A small
Brapp-brapp
Of the jack hammer
Cracks spread
Rock rises from its bed
To meet
Those feet
Jagged hands
Thrown up
In celebration
Of the breaking
The re-making
Toward you I walk
Each step steeling myself
For my path
Leads past
You today
I feel the gravity pull
It is so easy to go
And even as I succumb
I know
The immense toll
I face on the other side
Closer, closer
I can see the love sparkle
In your eye
The slight
Turn
Of your lips
At the corner
Of your mouth
A sprite of mirth
Escaping
To greet the sky
Head spin
All is shoulders
And skin
Up and down
Have no meaning
Now there is only
To and from
Crackle and snap
In my chest
As my heart does its best
To break free
Run to you
Abandon me
Sit on the ground
Blissfully drown
In the sea
Of love
All around me
See
The wholeness of this place
I am sun
I am sky
I am you
I am me
I am this sea
Of love
That was always
Inside of me
Inhale
Gather
The waters
In
Feel the pressure
The tingle
On my skin
Exhale
Release
Send these waves
Out from me
Tender fingers of foam
Caress
The sands
Fill them
Flood them
With love
In this ebb and flow
Eyes once again pulled
To your golden glow
On the sand
Love tickles your toes
You strip naked
Stand
At the boundary
Between the shore
And the sea
Your eyes
Drink in
Eagerly
All of me
I have laid out
Lovingly
For you to see
And you
Divine in your skin
Dive right in
To
Love
With me
