From the Center of Being I

Centering each and every thing
From winging bird or grain of sand
To the largest galactic sun
Is an invisible point of Light
Connecting and communicating
With every other point of Light
Throughout the entire universe

Hippo Rock

Another wave washes 
The Hippo clean
Of perching shore birds

Overhead the seasonal wave
Of migrating ducks and geese
Struggle to reorganize
Their disintegrating formations
In the erratic April breezes

“White caps appear between the grey”

White caps appear between the grey
Of the free and angry sea,
As I stand with hands pocket deep
Tasting the salt spray on my lips.

Wind blown tresses cover my face.
Whisking them away
I feel the flame of your presence;
Turning I meet your ambient eyes
And again I’m warm with you near.

“Relationships change”

Relationships change
Between student and teacher
When autumn transforms

Green to gold departing leaves
Feeding the earth      Becoming

“Learning is quite simple”

Learning is quite simple—
When you
Slip through the reef
Of despair
And the barriers
Of fear.

```
Hateful utterances
Express our bigotry;
As caught in the whirlwind
Thoughts of mass minds decay
We lose the direction
Of formerly trod ways.

Empty Garden

Yesterday, the thought, if imaginable,
Would have been quickly dismissed.
Yet today, I know and can feel
A complete Emptiness in my head;
And at this moment, begin to wonder
Whether I should attempt to fill it
With something new and meaningful.

Dream Fragment 11

Between blanket and moon
Exhausted stars vibrate
On this excited flesh
Burning over passion
Fulfilled and expectant
Sensing an angel’s touch
From digits descending
Through heavens reflection

Children of the Sun XII

If they are unwilling
Or unable to accept
The opportunity
Of the gift now offered
It will be presented
Again and yet again
As it has time after time
Following the agony
Of climbing back to face
Their current dilemma
And again be confronted
By the fear of losing
Individuality
In the ocean of Oneness
