Following Your Bliss

Following Your Bliss
c 2008

Close your eyes
Visualize
Observe as your dreams
And realities coincide

Dive the depths
Into the ocean
Far from all the senseless commotion

Into the sweetest of silence inside

We just need to remember this day
Remember it this way always

When we went to a place full of love
A space where there was nowhere else to go

Go see the world
You will never regret it
But don’t forget that
the limitlessness you seek

exists

inside

Step of Faith

Step of Faith

You never know
the countless angles
waiting to be shown

Frequently you cannot see the path
that will take you
exactly where you need to go

Just take just take just take
one small step of faith
You may be afraid

Aware of past and potential mistakes
that could be made
You’re more than a sinner or a saint

Relax your head and contemplate
the next breath’s best for you to take

There’s always the factor of fear
the shadow of failure lurking near
But if you never make the try
you’ll never come to know
the places only you are destined to roam..

Time Will Say

Time Will Say

Time will say
the words

that neither you nor I
communicate

You know that love must win
either way

whether we decide this is the end..
or we find the inner strength to begin again..
time will say

Chorus

Patience has its own private toll road
History’s the price paid as the truth unfolds

in the natural order of living things
while changes spring in everything

Love won’t be intellectualized
in the fiery looks from familiar eyes

Love’s been there since my first sight of you
Since.. my first.. sight of you..

Bridge

Time has a language all its own
with dedicated lines we learn to follow it home

I hear the answers in the beating of my heart
I’d follow the road where we’d never part

This can go either way…
only time will say

Big difference

That which is for you a poem for me is not,

that which is a poem for me for you is not,

that which is for you a truth for me is not,

that which is a truth for me for you is not,

that which is for you a peace for me is not

that which is for me a peace for you is not,

that which is for you love, for me is not,

that which is for me love for you is not,

Heartfelt kiss

Who doesn’t want to be fulfilled?

Who doesn’t want to feel love and peace?

Just recognize your own heartfelt kiss

and you will be satisfied and fulfilled.

The Joy of Mud

Summer is Earth on your Hands and Clay on your Feet.
There is a Gentle River that calls, making the journey sweet.

There’s something about connecting to the Planet we stand on; to the earth that yields our food, to the elements that make up the bread and bones of our physical existence.

The world we live in has become a maze of blinking lights and beeping appliances, taking us on a journey farther and farther away from our source, our origins, our internal drum-beat.

We amaze ourselves – again and again – by the return to Simple Roots, the immersion and re-immersion in the Sound of Us, the Place We Sprang From, the Fountain of Familiar Song that echoes deep in our own caverns.
