This Winter Solstice night

 

This winter solstice draws forth a dream, my dream,

for a world where there is reverence for life,

for freedom of being, where creativity lives,

where a different way of doing is met with excitement,

where I am seen, heard, felt,

where I live amongst souls who know to do the right thing,

who are in touch with their inner knowing,

with the seasons, with mother earth,

with people who seeks to understand,

whose source is love,

whose fodder is gratitude,

where you and me and everyone

may be who we are meant to be,

naturally, instinctually,

where dreams such as these hold magic,

so let this winter solstice night

lead you to the place of your dreams

and believe in it, what you can see, can be,

for I believe with certainty, this place exists...

Time of Transition

 

We are so full of triggers

full of learned behaviour,

is it even possible to undo it all?

Every day I go about

catching myself ere I speak without thought,

I look with scepticism at every rule,

I question the steps I’ve been taught

and very little stands up to scrutiny now,

I was filled with horror, fear, shock, anger,

entertained thoughts of vengeance and war

but this war was already waging,

within.

It is said, we need to reach the bottom

before we can rise,

we have to face every fear,

we have to realise ourselves

as sovereign, autonomous beings,

we have to recognise

we are from here, from this earth,

we do nOt need to fit in, belong, conform,

we have our place, we are perfect, whole, free souls,

meant to wander freely as we desire,

with respect to nature, to mother earth,

live with the sun and the moon,

live with the seasons,

and we will be filled with light,

rewarded with love,

live in peace and joy……
