SPIRIT SPOKE

Quietly sitting
at my alter,
Spirit nudged me,
softly swept my hair
aside
and spoke in 
the faintest of 
whisperes
saying,
"I know you
know, one thing."
What one thing? 
I wondered...

NO
THING?

Nothing?

Grandmother Paryer

Grandmother,
Please forgive me.
For I have prayed a spell.

I lit the charcoal,
Watched it burn
from onyx to amber
to Ash.

Slowly blowing on it,
sparks of inspiration rose
and I softly spoke into the
Allegedly Good Fortune
Candle
sold to me by the
man from Bangladash.

Black Panther Woman
marked the coals with her magical blend
from far away lands.
White smoke rose
Cedar added for the trees to be represented.
Then spirit asked me
to write
four names
onto the candle.
So I did.
Then lit the wick with
a branch of 
Sweet Grass
From the Shaman's wife

And I wept for
Forgiveness for
All the Beauty
I may off the world.

I wept for my heart knows
this beauty first hand
and each beat
of my thriving heart
brings bliss
abundance
divine intervention.
Sweet Grandmother Owl,
Forgive me for my beautiful
sins
and may I have the
Grace
To witness such
joy

Birthday Card

Two weeks,
after the fact,
He whispered into her ear,

"I still haven't opened your present." 

Don't worry, she softly said.

There is always
next year.

Eternity

If

each moment

expires

in a second,

how can

anything

last

except love?

Handsome Man I

Handsome Man,

I am not a loaf

of bread.

I have no

Expiration date.

This  Love

is from 

the Universe.

I am merely

the Amphora.

Pick me up.

Anoint yourself.

Release all resistance.

Release

all resistance.

Release.

Handsome Man II

Handsome Little Man,

Please dial inward.

There are

no busy signals,

only open lines.

I am 

listening,

and

so

should

You.


Jimmy's Dream

Jimmy dreamt

we were on

a speed boat

going to your 

new home,

still in the

five borough area,

and there was a

giant snowy mountain

in the background.

I was scared,

the way we were

working through the

water,

but it was still cool

and fun and

vivid and

you were

so 

very

happy.
