As a new day dawns
So does the dawn of opportunity
The opportunity to free our hearts and minds
From all worldly troubles, and
Embrace the reality of Self
Dance not to the song of illusion
Cling not to the theatre of torment
But follow the nectarine path
To the silent chamber of the Soul
Bask in the effulgence of wisdom
Drink from the cup of pure knowing
Know thyself, know thyself
When the atoms disperse
The Spirit remains
Consider not what is lost, but
Rejoice in what is gained
The journey continues
It has no end
Just surrender to the light
Just surrender to the light
Just surrender to…
I Am The Light

Will you flit with me across the sky, and
Keep me close as clouds roll by
Will you touch my heart with moonlight, and
Melt my soul with a nectarine sigh
Will you dance with me in the ether
Will you caress me with your breath
Will you sing me a song of the sweetest Love, and
Hold my hand at death

I must confess that when I dwell on all the things that are going on in our crazy world, it fills me with the deepest sadness. I have never been able to understand why humans can inflict so much pain and suffering on fellow humans. A few weeks back I was having such a moment; I felt unbelievably sad at what was going on around the world and here in the UK. I decided that I would talk to the “Divine Doctor” and unload all my feelings. I was immediately touched within my heart in such a way that said, “I know how you feel; I understand.” This for me, brought immense beauty to the moment and I have been pondering ever since how to share the experience on my blog. So, here it is, along with a very simplistic poem that aptly sums up my relationship with Infinite Consciousness.
The Spirit never leaves me
The Spirit is my friend
The Spirit always guides me
As along the path I wend
The Spirit fills my heart with fire
The Spirit heals my soul
The Spirit sings a song of Love
When err I feel alone
I may not always understand
How the Spirit works
But that is good and fine with me
To its ways, I’m not averse
I appreciate the comfort
The Spirit gives to me
It doesn’t judge, it simply Loves
And all its gifts are free
With Nature’s grace
All things have their place
Whether good, bad or ugly
All are just opinions
Expressed by earth’s denizens
Never judge a book by the cover
Never believe you are more regal than another
From an egg
The fascinating caterpillar emerges
Only to disappear into pupal obscurity
Mother Nature weaves her magic, and
The Empress of The Lepidopteran Realm springs forth
In the form of a butterfly
Elegant and magnificent
She flits here and there
Breathing her vibrant magic into the world
In gratitude to the Mother that embraced her
She confers the gift of eggs to the earth
Then like a river that has found the ocean
She surrenders her spirit to the heavens
And so continues the cycle
With Nature’s grace
All things have their place
Whether good, bad or ugly
All are just judgements
Expressed by earth’s denizens
You never know what is contained within
So, be very careful what you opine
Never judge a book by the cover
Never believe you are more regal than another

I have run the course
Faced many obstacles along the way
Nursed many a life-inflicted bruise
Now, as the curtain comes down
On this instalment of life’s dramas
I cannot help but smile…
For as I dive into the abyss
And am welcomed once more
Into the arms of Divinity
I melt into nothingness and muse…
“That was a job well done.”

I’ll meet you on The Rainbow Bridge
When your earth time has expired, and
We’ll run once more through meadows green
Until our legs grow tired
When I gave up my body on that day
You held my furry paw, and
As I crossed over into timelessness
I felt your grief, so raw
We shared a love, so special, so true
Loyalty flowed both ways
Now you miss me curled up at your feet
To ease your lonely days
You never, ever got mad at me
When I left pawprints on your floor
You only ever showed me love
Amour, amour, amour
I’ll welcome you home
As you once welcomed me, and
Took away all my fear
Your loving heart was open, and
You held me there most dear
Yes, I’ll be waiting on The Rainbow Bridge
When your earth time has expired, and
We’ll run once more through the meadows green
Until our legs grow tired

Branches of trees sway in the breeze
Bursting with green
It’s spring! If you please
Blue sky above
And the warmth of the sun
Mother Nature showers her blessings
On everyone
I was once a star that lit up the sky
Do you honestly believe
That I could leave you and die
I come to you now, not in the human sense
But from the Absolute
The place we were all delivered whence
There is no above and there is no below
There is only the here and now
And the eternal energy flow
The warmth of the sun is my loving embrace
The gentle breeze, my kiss on your face
So worry not, feel the caress of my heart
And rest in the knowledge that we are never apart
