I am

the radiant goddess

I am the soulmate of my soul

I am beholden to the Beauty

I am the keeper of the whole

I am

I am

the sword

of surrender

too swift for thinking,

too light for fear

I am the kiss

Of the beloved

Once a promise so sweet,

Now a pain too much

for this human heart to bare

I am the weeping bride,

jilted at the altar, then

King Arthur and his entire army at my side,

Still longing for love

in secret chambers

past hallways of past lives,

betrayals and lies, and

fortress high walls of pride

I am the bloodshed

of my womb

The unborn

unloved

unknown children

of the tomb

I am

the beloved

of the Beloved

I am everywhere

I am nowhere

I am lost

I am home

I am the hermit nun,

saved and enslaved
by her vow

Dancing on the edge of dark night

and sanity

and wondering how

on earth

do we

create Heaven here and now

I am the leader’s loneliness

I am his infant’s cry

I am the inner battlefield

Of trying not to try

I am the threshold

of effortless play and ease

and the barrister of grief

I am the divine veil’s limitation striptease

and trepidation’s thief

Belonging to no one

and everyone,

I am the thirst

for Truth and Joy,

and the knowing

that

we

are

already

free

Yet all the king’s horses and

all the king’s men

Shall not bring these to me

I am the mispalced,

stolen,

forgotten

key

I am

I am this frightened animal,

so small,

And a wild stallion at the gate

May I find peace

in accepting all

of me, and let LOVE love me

and never hesitate

I am the pulse of Creation

in her innocence

and her strength

Raw, real, open, shut,

bright and bleak,

Like windshield wipers

of uneven length 

LOVE

wants me to see

I am

timeless, formless, empty

wholeness,

So far beyond

memories and all

the mental machinery

I am

the bardo between

exhaustion and emergence,

of a new Reality,

a nascent Being

Transcending

any false identity,

LOVE wants me

to see

I am

the Alchemy

of Infinity

 

I am this grove of trees,

Holding hands

beneath the earth,

I am the water breaking,

singing, here I come,

at the warning of my birth

I am the holy witness

bowing

to the choiceless choice

of nourishing new life

May I listen

to the pregnant whispers of a

future calling voice

I am the invitation

and the capable midwife, cutting the cord.

I am a choir of angels, descending, announcing

the cosmic bridal party has arrived

Does my Lady receive her Lord

Love Overflowing Revealing the Divine

I am yours.

You are mine.

I am these wings,

ready to leave the nest,

Fluttering, fierce and fragile,

filled with faith

Let this take me into flight

LOVE wants me to see

there’s nothing wrong

and nothing right.

Only this.

I am.

Can you

let this

be your rest?

Can you let this sword

enter your chest?

Until you cannot breathe,

until there is a new breath?

LOVE wants me

to be

LOVE

To sit in silence,

to listen and wait

for the depth of an inner sea

to move me

To create a whole new world

no one could anticipate

 
I am
the muddy blanket
you almost stepped on,

Not seeing the body under it,
huddled in the street.


 I am
the silent suffering
under all those smart phones
and new shoes,

and balconies
those strangers
are too busy to use



in our conconted stories
of envy or sympathy,
about victims, villains and heroes
we never really meet.

I am all the mistakes

and all the forgiveness

I am this poem

weaving its way into existence

with unstoppable Grace

Inviting you to look. Stop. Behold. 

Me You We I

One face

I am the warrior queen

in humility, on my knees,

Ready to wake up
and stand

for LOVE’s urgency

that doesn’t need

to say pretty please

to the false gods

of the patriarchy

I am the mountain,

tall and steady,

and the raging river stream,

Pouring into broken places,

resurrecting the dream

from inside my heart,

your heart,

the one heart,

one team

Are you willing?

Are you ready?

LOVE

wants

us

to

see

we are

an unknowable, unfolding

Mystery

I am the pause

of pure Presence

and the eros of Essence,

irresistibly,

simply

HERE

Come sit with Me

If you really want to be

clear

and free

I am the hospice nurse of “try”

and a Yoda wave to Trust

this pull above all else

Let the good girl crumble and cry

and make room for the

seeker-achiever pusher
to die.

I am

the reluctant, never-ceasing,

hushed into yelling,

telling me,

Let go

of the branch and the oar,

and hear the Lion’s roar,

from the priestess of the ocean,

and the patron of the sky,

inviting you to soar

I am the radiant goddess

I accept the crown to claim

I am the taproot

of ecstasy and equanimity

I am the sun. I am the rain.

I delight in this dance with destiny,

I know why I came,

and remember my true name

I am the Alchemy of Infinity

I am

I am

I am

May the new queen RISE

Realize

Infinite

Source

Emergence,

and dare to be one who LEADS

Love Expressing As Desired by Soul
