November New Moon

 

 

As she sat gazing
at night skies on the eve
of the November New Moon,
a voice came to her,
and it whispered in her ear:
 
“Shrug off the past,
all the yesterdays gone by,
shrug off the hurt,
the tears, the pain, the sighs,
shrug off what was,
let it go, with love, say goodbye,
it is time in this space
of transition between timelines.”
 
Many hours she stayed watching
spent a few in dreamland too,
it’s when dawn breathed a breath,
that she felt it, pure relief,
a weight had been lifted,
it’s a cycle now complete,
and the morning breeze her whispered:
 
“Paint the future you desire
in full colour, full of deeds,
‘tis time to dream that dream
with the things that your heart meets.”
 
 

Driving down Skeleton Coast

 

 

Driving down the road
in the midday sun, scorching
white the sky, melting
into the bleached sand
on the horizon
behind waves of heat
rising into the heavens
after the morning mist’s
burnt away by an unforgiving sun.
 
I’m driving in
a forgotten land,
amongst skeletons
of dried trees,
an antelope,
a shipwreck,
alongside an ocean,
cold and wicked.
 
The air is breathless,
I feel lost, forgotten,
here I am, alone,
at the mercy of silence,
my thoughts,
my self,
exposed.
 
I’ve been swallowed,
drawn in, seduced,
my mind plays tricks,
mirages of palm trees,
an oasis that doesn’t exist,
in total isolation.
 
 
 

Let go

 

 Let go of the control
over your mind, your movement,
let go of the confines
of your thoughts and beliefs,
let go of the patterns
engrained in you to follow,
let go of the pictures
you were shown as a child.
 
Freely let your eyes flow
over that which you see before you,
move gently to the call
whatever the way it wishes to go,
let the breeze lift your footsteps
to an ancient melody,
sway your body to the rhythm
in the air so very sweet.
 
Find the freedom inherent in your being
through the knowing alive in your soul,
find the purpose that burns within you,
find your meaning that’s yours to own.
 
 

The Song in your Soul

 

To the song in your soul
sing a sweet melody,
let the rhythm meet the roots
of your being oh so deep,
to the light in your heart
lift the veil that on you lies,
let the spirit through you flow
let it free, be alive.
 
There is knowing in your soul
written in your destiny,
faintest footprints show you how
through the darkness that is deep,
every tear that you have shed
fed the seed that in you lies,
it’s your gift, it is your calling
it’s your purpose, true, alive.
