Reaching out beyond the dream of what you thought was real, spinning on this ball of life, head now under heel. Ready to die, to live this life so raw, alive on ledge- dancing, hurling, freeing your soul to finally stretch the edge.

Be still
Silently I watched as this fog crept through the crevices of the trees' valleys. A slow but determined force followed, engulfing the landscape.
Watching that mist trekking across the hills that I longed to trek through, my soul was stirred as it reveled in the marvel that spilled out before me.
Can I be still and still be me?
I would rather be g~d's breath
crawling across the earth
or the place of fruitful death
resigned to new day's birth
where fences are mended
and tatters un-torn
where wounds come unwrapped
as wisdom is born
where fear is unwelcome
and love is life's toy
where the feast is not crumbs
but a platter of joy
Be still and know that I am...

Can I be still and still be me? This was nice to read first thing this morning. I´m sitting here with my right forearm resting on a bag of frozen vegetables after being way too enthusiastic with my guitar yesterday. I want to play so much right now, but I know the right thing to do is rest my arm, and just play in my imagination.
ReplyDeleteI guess I´ll still be me...:)
Lovely! :-)
