And Footsteps Glide Effortlessly

Battle scarred and wounded
Heroes everywhere I look
There is no escaping our beautiful humanness
The heart breaking tenderness of it all
This stunningly sublime nakedness
What A Wonder

Tags:
What a wonder
It
This
This un-snare-ability
Scooping the ocean in the cupped palms of her hand
Glistening droplets shimmering
Slip sliding off her skin
After the Rain

The end of denial comes of it's own accord
The end of pretence
"The quality of mercy
Is not strain'd"
The heart breaks open with all the pain that's been held inside for millennia
Jostling Playfully

Tags:
No graven image
However gilded
Carved in marble and lime stone
Adorned in gold leaf
And rubies
Can touch the ever flowing
Uncapturable liquidity
Ephemeral beauty of this
It Is As It Is

And if only
Life were just so
All would be tickety-boo
And you could live your life
Without a care in the world
It was never your life
Nor a life playing you
You are not dreaming
The Awe And Joy Of Simply Being

I opened my balcony window
The morn has still not dawned yet
And spied a large owl sitting on the window ledge a floor below
In the dark a white face... white breasted... and luminous eyes
A Cloud And A Pine Tree

When we were little... my dad would take us for our summer holidays to the hills of Shimla
We went there 5 years in a row
This And That

Tags:
This and that
Me and you
I've seen this sort of thing played out in my own life
And it makes me sad
That love is used as a bargaining chip
To manipulate the dream
The Great Aloneness

Tags:
Aaaahhhh
The great aloneness
She leaned into the lean to
To shelter from the storm
The lean to collapsed
And along with it...she
Ahhh
Hail... storm... and calm
A Strange Coming Home

Tags:
There's a kind of hush
The hum of life
It's always on
She was dearly beloved !
I simply called her "Aunty"
And the only one I had and could to speak to about the awakening
