moon
waste no seconds with my heart

above my head invitations open

moonlight's no solstice sun reflection,
but solstice moon rather
mooning moon

what gifts you bring for me
to make me stop!

simplicity in the message

solstice moon
you my heart

and my heart
love

death breathed me
had seemed
to be breathing me

moving air in my chest
taking hold

i had only said hello
and death was answering back

every day to shadow–sing fling
drop it down

be what all
what most you fear

stare the mirror
smile your welcome there

this steady unease

hold it
breathe it
top to bottom
round and through

whisper to its tiny ear–
leaning toward you

i love you, come more close

do this until at last you know
this teacher is your friend

not separate but At One with you
'til end

I felt a giddy laughing all about.

100 trillion cells of me leading sweet chorus,
mostly in my gut.

I shout it out, so all the world may hear!
I’m in a new love relationship!

When’s the last time any significant other
kept you up, all night?

Last night, it happened to me.
I was supine with my instrument.

She’d only waltzed into my life yesterday
and man do we sing it up,
she and I!

Me and my stunning-to-the-T.

I very love
my sweet-song her!

With a shift inkling, concepts dropped
and I was all of my true name.

I etched in moving water.

I streamed me--water frozen,
water falling, water drifting
as fog, as cloud.

I was mini-singular
H2O.

My two hydrogen rabbit ears
danced five different ways,
and oxygen laughed and sang
(what a team!)

Sundried, now as the clock strikes noon,
I find my feet and I stand.
I build myself of basaltic rock.

Tower of Babel--polyglot soundings
in cyclic revision speak intelligence,
spirals I am.

Inverted, I apt dive down.
In transition, I grow rounded
hollowing.

I Earth. I Center.
I Sun Earth Center

where timeless pinpoint passages
****** me home again.

O, what strangeness and wonder
it is -- this practicing freedom.

And you, too ~ have experience?

Awareness
good beginning.

innocence that young child
at sudden appearance came
from behind a cloud it seemed
of my day

he
silent

his smile
it made a sound

sweetly scattered wind

cradled distant mountaintop
touched fire

I walked familiar pathways,
felt my shoulders--pressed embraced.

My feet, they moved so quick,
I  levitated.

All along my lower spine surges of traffic came --
particles, waves of sunlight,
from the center of the earth.

HI **! my trillions of cells exclaimed,
stretching borders of their community kingdoms.

This is all of why I am simply here, I think:
to stop, to listen, to give receive.

Call it love.

How is it that such magic happens?

O, this place and me
at year's ending.
