Awake Beloved
Susan McKinney May 2019
Awake and hear the quiet enveloping your being.
Take a deep breath and feel your heart's presence.
Open your eyes slowly  and watch your gentle breathing.
That's  the beginning of your life's essence.

God is alive in every cell of your body.
Renewing and giving energy to each *****,
Each breath is a new harmonious piece of melody
Sweetly sounding in chords from what began

When first you emerged from hiding in your mother's womb
Squalling and stretching with trembles and yawn
Until you make the final gasp when you head to your tomb
God is alive in you dawn after dawn.

And still God is breathing and renewing the whole world
Death cannot stop what God has brought to life.
Great love is transcending even as your toes become curled
To a Holy realm beyond earthly strife.

Rejoice and be lively in the divine all in all, now and then.
It is your time to partake in the love
That moves like blood pumping  through your heart again and again.
Feel joy and know you are always beloved.

— The End —
