Freely offering their healing powers
By pouring Gold Rejuvenating Liquid
Into and on this physical vehicle.

Birthing III

We have returned to the crossroads
Only to find all signs point Home

Again the choice is ours to make
Of hoping the Child is stillborn
Further delaying our journey
As we spin faster and faster
On the merry-go-round of life

For the lonely existence
And wayward actions
Of her restless children
With the older members
Of her solar family

Prairie Cleansing

Angers away  Eastward
             Floating
Heavy cluttered mind
Baggage cast aside
	
Lakes   mountains   trees
Gone        Forgotten
Blind traveling folded
Into Saskatchewan sun
Rising over fence lines
Touching blue domed sky

Paths I, ix

Various books of scripture lay
   For our opened eyes to see,
   A testament from all cultures
   Of the world that is to be.
In spectrum’s spiritual array
   Peoples of all colors and creeds
      In silent reverence converse,
      Warning of temptation’s vultures
      That pilot desire’s mortal hearse.
   In scripture Providence’s seed
Is sown to grow and show the way
   For man to quench his thirstful need
   To live life, unshackled and freed.

Referring to section seven,

To become a standing member
Or one sitting within sight of

“We hold the key”
```
We hold the key
To see the light
Of our past failures,
Yet we stumble through the darkness
Of daylight
Without noticing
Our shortcomings.

New Year’s Eve – SwanSong

       SwanSong


Out of the grey sky lake
The six joined by two
Appear near the islands
Flying   Not ducks   not geese
Eight     Winging in a line
Tip to wingtip at eye level

Contact with one     Recognition
Then connection with the gliding
White feathering Swans approaching
The shoreline and my doorstep

The River of Forgetfulness

Leave all earthly belongings here,
On this still familiar shore,
And nakedly step into the water.
The River of Forgetfulness
Will permanently wash away
All your acquired prejudice;
Releasing worn out opinion
And popular cancerous thought.
