everything that wants to be said

Oh!

The heart is touched

Beyond anything that can make sense –

Grace has chosen to build her dwellings

In my ribs.

What else is there to say now

When everything that wants to be

Said loud

 has turned itself into

A bright sun!

more intimacy

I want to strike a  friendship

with you -

Life said to me.

I spread myself under her feet

and became a garden.

She became a rose and

laughed.

She said,

 I want more intimacy.

I turned myself into a flute.

She picked me up  from the floor

And our lips joined as one.

I started singing fearlessly.

From what expands them

Last evening
I was going for a short walk -
In our neighborhood,
Those Long, elegant trees
were rising
To touch the half dark sweet moon.
Birds were singing of aliveness.
In the highway
People were speeding –
They were running away
From what expands them,
What makes their hearts
Explode with joy.

Promise me

Promise me today,
Dear friend that,
You are not going to 
wait your entire life
for someone
to make you happy -
Look how beautiful you are!
The entire autumn sky
wants to seek shelter 
Inside your smiles.

Those who've served their hearts

They've never
felt unworthy
and ashamed.
Those who've served
their hearts
with innocence -
those who have chosen
to radiate..

in your movements and words

Be loving and most compassionate
in your movements
 and words
and thoughts ----
We're all cradled inside
this tenderness called
the heart.

Here is not a place.

Here
Is not a place.
It is grace
Pouring into
grace.
It is
The state of 
Wholeness.
Look at the sky
And the falling leaves
And the wind moving 
The trees ---
That is HERE. 
Feel how your feet
Take turns to kiss the
earth.
That is here too.
Everything is here.
You are the only one
who is away.

Without An ounce of fear

Without
An ounce of fear or doubt,
Let the tornado of love sweep you -
Let the flame of kindness
consume you Completely.
Anything or anyone
That stands between you
And the glory of
your inner Brilliance
is not Worth-kissing.

You've made this choice

You’ve made 
This choice already –
And light cannot be contained
In a jar.
If you try to bend the river,
It will break thousand dams. 
Somewhere
The moon is giving birth to moon.
Somewhere
Bees are weaving honey
Out of innocence.
Somewhere
birds are singing forever.
Somewhere
Doors and windows are
Left open forever 
So that laughter can move in
And take the place of Sorrow. 
You’ve made 
This choice already -
to be utterly present.

how alive are you today?

How alive
Are you today?
How kind 
Are you today?
How peaceful
Are you today ----?
It all depends on
How close is
Your relationship
With your Wizard,
your Inner light.

like an infant

Like an infant
Who has met with the mother’s breast
For the first time,
she cannot explain the depth
and the sweetness of the experience
and yet she cries for it several times a day,
wanting to go back to it -
That is how divine it is 
This meeting with the
Beautiful one,
This sitting with the 
Force of creation

a great meditator.

Don't try to be
a great meditator.
Be simple and innocent.
Be the ocean
and flow into
yourself.

the bark of deep conditioning

a simple noticing of
your true essence
has the power to peel
the bark of deep conditioning -
causing the flow of life
into your body.

What makes the ocean fragrant?

What does a rose

need to bloom?

What makes the ocean

fragrant?

What brings eloquence

to our lips?

Ever since love took-over,

my entire body has become

a divine lamp and the heart

grew deeper -

What is there

I cannot hold

today?

What is there

I cannot embrace?

Fragrant forest

You cannot  touch quality

 With  the noise in your head
But with deep stillness
Where the seed of love
Can grow into a massive
Fragrant forest.

You cannot see

Your true self
With the eyes
Of  judgment
or  fear
But with the eye,
As clear as the sky -
With the depth of the
Ocean that has
 no waves.
