Upon Awakening

Boldly looking forward

to places unforeseen

Not afraid of searching for

somewhere I've never been.

I will remember as it happens

the sights will strike a cord

In the presence of creation

Of course I'll know my Lord.

The beginning of this world

Was dreamt and so was I

Every detail accounted for

even the colour in my eye-

So why should I worry

What could disturb my peace-

When I know for certain

my Being will never ever cease.

This is why I look forward

instead of looking back

There's nothing more I need

there is nothing that I lack...

I am perfect in this moment

my heart open to the light

I am the morning waking up

Shaking off this night.

soothe my emotion

Star light filters through the nights sky

I stand below the moon looking up

In the ether we exist together

Completely connected but apart

Alone in this moment with sound

The vibrations enter neutral

I let them wash over me, through me

I am cleansed by being in the moment

lost when I fall asleep in the past

afraid when I grasp at the future...

I am here...bathing in the light

of the moon, the sun, the stars

I am reflecting the light

I am a temple on earth

for the light from above

I do not need to fumble in the dark

for the light switch is a choice

I turn on from within

My Vocation

Flipping through pages

Skimming through words

Not even speaking

Don't want to be heard,

I've got nowhere to be

No agenda to follow

Being free as the wind

can be a tough pill to swallow

To watch every moment

is no easy task

to sit alone in the mirror

with no hiding, no mask

Seeing yourself clearly

with nowhere to run

accepting the truth

sometimes is not fun!

But I continue to be

as I am, as a child

born free in the world

an animal of the wild

I'll continue to roam

as a gypsy I wander

the world spinning 'round

the mystery of life I ponder.
