Pause


In the stillness I pause
To connect to the Divine
Love that pulses within me

In each breath I feel
My fearful old ways
Returning to the Source

In this moment I hear
The truth echo in the
Silence of the sunrise

In my soul I find
Seeds of all that I
Dream of being

In sacred tradition I offer
All that I am to the Earth to
Cleanse that which causes suffering

In the stillness I am
Completely loved and loving
Perfection is restored

In a new beginning I agree
To surrender to the magically
Wild woman I was created to be

This is exactly the third poem I've written  in my life, the other two came ten years ago. This one came during meditation today... and I thought I would put it here because I've been hearing about how creativity connects us to ourselves, one another, and the world.

Be nice or leave... that is the only rule we need, right?
