i love You
For no reason
And then again
For every possible reason

i love You
for the clear sky
Blue – just like you

i love You
for the clouds
And thunder
Your Divine dance

i love You
for the rains
mixing with my tears
and taking them across
this crazy worldly ocean
To Your Lotus Feet
where
dissolve
My heart
And soul
From now to eternity

In the cradle of nature
With blooming flowers
And moon beams
Shimmering sun rays
and
butterflies

We too were planted
As seeds of love

By the Universal Being
Of all that is
That was
and
That ever will be.

I am a hammer
In your tool shed
You may use me
To hit
one nail or a hundred
or maybe none…

i am waiting
For You
To be in Your hands
Whenever you like
For whatever you need
For something
Or nothing

i am here
Waiting for You
In eternity

I release my words
    Into this universe
        Like a peace pigeon

They have no goals
No desire
      To change or teach
No targets
       To impact or reach

Just a message of love
       From my heart to yours

Smile, my beloved
       In the sweetness
            Of this moment

The thought of you crosses my mind
I smile
Thinking of your eyes
In mine
Magic

Suddenly past memories
Rose up as turbulent waves
In the ocean of my heart

An avalanche of tears
Arrived as showers
Upon my eyes

Old tears mixed with the new ones
Leaving me
Wondering
Which ones are more salty?

I take a break
From
The push of the past
The have-been and might-been
The smallness and anxiety
The self-deprecation
Pain, despair and futility
Of all my activity

I take a pledge
To begin anew
A clean slate
A total break
From the push of the past

A quantum leap
A jump into the river
Of the future
Crystal clear sweet harmony
Waves of sweetness
My Lord's Blue Feet
In my every cell
Heart beat and breath

Suddenly, somehow
The glorious future
The mindless past
Dissolve

Eternity
Subsumes
All
Forever

Sweet is Your creation
Sweeter still art Thou

Grace is every breath
Blessed still
Is the breath
Which
Intertwined with Your name
Holds in that moment
Infinity

Residing in Your name
You expand to fill my being

Every cell dances
And love pours out
To all creation

Filling this vastness
with light
Blue as Your Feet

A piece of my heart
Became my little baby
She smiles
Rainbows envelop me
She cries
I hold her
The universe in my arms

It's a delicate moment
My heart is all broken
And the pieces are scattered
Like a broken jigsaw puzzle
On my kitchen floor

It's all mixed up with tears
And bread crumbs
And dust and plastic wrappers

Please help me
Before the vacuum cleaner
Gobbles it up

How to enter
the magnificence
of this moment?

i know only one way
A single ray
into my heart
Your name
This breath
Intertwine
In eternity
All existence
awakens
now
as a tear drop
of pure love

Sometimes the rain drops
are so big and succulent
like mangoes
and tears
and temple bells
at dawn

The parched earth
smiles
and welcomes all
in her embrace
the rain drops
ripe mangoes
endless tears
and mystic sound
of temple bells
at dawn

I send you white light
To fill your cells with radiance
I send you white flowers
To shower you with peace
I send you fragrant incense
To  surround you with love
I send you my heart
To join yours
In tears

We make up our stories
Our logic and rationalizations
For what happened
That shouldn't have
And
For what didn't happen
That should have

We say
God is benevelont
The universe is your friend
Don't worry
All is well and always has been

Yes, these are good stories
And maybe they are true

But what can i tell my tears?
The arise from a deep well
within
my heart
The well of tears

They cry as they wait
For the moment and day
When this friendly universe
Makes up its own mind
To bless my clouded eyes
with the vision
of Thine Feet

Blue Feet, Bamboo flute
My life, my love
My refuge eternal

The universe holds me
Tenderly in her arms
Gently caressing me with
What i desire
With holding from me
That which i yearn

Taking away and giving
Life, people, circumstances
Dreams, disappointments, hope
Music, tears and catastrophe

Each a stroke
A melody
A whisper of sweetness
Eternal expansive
A drop of pure love

Gratitude
The feeling you have
When you win the lottery
without buying a ticket

Gratitude
a smile in your heart
for no reason
or a reason so small
yet a feeling so sweet
Like rainbows dancing
On a snowy night
Amidst sparkling stars

Gratitude is here
Feel her gentle touch

Smile into the sweetness
live in the openness
bloom in the ray
of simple happiness

Be silent my mind
So we can hear
The whispers of the soul
No thoughts,
No feelings,
No ups and no downs
Just this
As it is
A silence
A knowing
A being
I am with Him
In Him, for Him
In the lap of infinity

It is not possible to erase
Those thoughts, that pain
Those tears, that anguish
Each time i touch them
They awaken again
Like fire from a slumber

Let’s dip gently in goodness

In smiles, in God’s glory
In music, in nature
A little bit here
And then some there
Some sweetness
Some love
Some beauty

Dissolving

Moment by moment
The saltiness of tears
Cleansing the anguish
Healing the pain
Drowning in goodness
All darkness and shame

Tears appear once more
Sweet like a smile
Wrapped in inexplicable joy
Our heart blooms
    And offers itself
        At the altar
                Of peace
                        Dancing
                                with love

The tall tree
with a thousand branches
wishes it was free
to fly
like the birds.

The birds in the sky
wish they could be still
In one place, every day
Get nourished
and grow effortlessly
like the tall tree
with a thousand branches

To be rooted and yet free
To be free and yet centered

The desire of all life
Begins with awareness
And ends in love.

Born of Earth
To return to ashes
In the lightening span
We call this life

I pray
My Master Divine
To make this little light
I call my life
Your own song

Bless the last note
To fall
As dust
At Your Lotus Feet

The best version
Of this moment
happens when we
accept this moment
Just as it is

The smiles and tears
Anger and fears
Arrive and display
The palette of life
We watch and let go
Let the moment be
As still and as best
As only it knows
To be

We remain observers
In the silent stillness
Of love

Watching and accepting
Responding if need be
From love, for love

Come relax and enjoy
Moment by moment
The best version of life
In the silent sweetness of love.

Sometimes you smile at the universe
Offer love, sweetness
Pure energy

Sometimes life smiles back,
Sometimes not

You still keep smiling
In the knowing
That the flower in your heart
Smiles with you

The river of love
from deep within
bubbles with joy
to join
The unending ocean
Of truth, purity and stillness
Eternal silence
In love
In smiles
In sweet gratitude

The highest choice,
The sweetest and very best
Always and in every moment
Love.
Choose Love.

The highest and the best
But is it the easiest?

In the face of calamity,
Bitter, vicious calumny,
            How to choose love?

In the midst of trauma
heartbreak, anguish and grief
            How to bring love?

How to be a spring breeze?
When broken by disease?

How to be radiant light?
When facing darkness and fright?

Step by step,
smile by smile,
Moment by moment
breath by breath
i choose love.

With Your name as the anchor
My divine beloved savior
I choose love

Again and again
And yet again
To become
Moment by moment
breath by breath

That which thou art
Sweet love divine.

Early at dawn
The sun beams behind the clouds
"Gentle, my love. All is well." He whispers.

The dews sparkle
They kiss the green grass.
"Gentle, my love. All is well." They intone.

The birds chirp.
From their tree home and the skies
"Gentle, my love. All is well." They sing

The flower bud opens
With sweet magical delight
"Gentle, my love. All is well." She smiles.

In traffic and at work
My heart talks to my mind
"Gentle, my love. All is well." She hints.

And with you my sweet reader
I share this message and prayer
"Gentle, my love. All is well."
