And with tomorrow,
a new day will dawn.
The sky will be cleansed
and made whole once more.
Destiny whispers to me,
wiping the slate clean.
The debris of pain washed away,
returning me to source,
standing as one,
in the spotlight of my life.
We’re alike, you and I
We speak the same diction
Both seeking recourse
From others misaligned fiction
We’re alike, you and I
We sway to the same beat
We inhabit shared space
In our hearts, we’re replete
We’re alike, you and I
We observe old traditions
We see what is missing
Make note of omissions
We’re alike, you and I
We seek the same freedom
To transcend ancient habits
And no longer be lonesome
We’re alike, you and I
We share the same vision
Of how life could be lived
Through intuitive concision
I am ready
For your embrace
My own embrace
Now, far-reaching
And makes whole
The inadequacies
I believed were mine
That indeed belong
To no one
I have no judgement
In kind
That you will be anything
Other than you are
So join me
Knowing
That we belong
To ourselves
Before we belong
To each other
The moments in time,
Define us with grace
As the stars hold their position
Within the cosmos of space
Beyond all the dimensions
There’s no concept of thought
Our purpose, to shine brightly
Recalling all that was taught
In wholeness, we are born
Then we start to forget
That we chose to be here
To payback on our debt
With laughter and love
And a connection to the heart
We can suspend old beliefs
And set the ego apart
Let natural orders pervade
And suspend the false doubt
That weighs down your mind
So your true voice can shout
He looked up as she walked
Across the wet grass
Acknowledging her presence
With a loyal gravitas
Gently nuzzling her pockets
As she haltered his head
Excitedly, anticipating
The food he’d be fed
Playfully throwing his head
Trotting next to her heel
Their pure, honest bond
The equine reveal
Without touch, with intent
They whisper their thoughts
A submissive interaction
That releases and supports
Moving together as one
They dance with the rope
Unconsciously connecting
They spiritually elope
You stroked my face
as you hugged me
with your woody embrace
standing tall
on your roots
I held you close
Your woody musk
enveloped my skin
breathing life
into my belly
you led the dance
as we swayed with the wind
You translated secrets
of ancient stories
etched into your bark
an encoded history
written into the symmetry
of perfection
Responding to touch
we outstretched our arms
to the sun
the shared meaning
of two life forms
committed to growth
shiny pebbles
