Basking
Where
.
I
float
away
~
Drift
on
dreams
.
so
deep;
~
Inhaled
memories
~
Precious
grains
.
I
keep;
~
Feeling
.
like
you’re
near
~
Miles
.
melt
away;
~
I
can
hear
.
your
song
~
Heartstrings
strum
.
and
play;
~
Patiently
.
I
bask
~
Nestled
by
.
the
sea;
~
Awaiting
sunsets
.
vowed
.
just
to
.
you
and
me.

These Days
They
say
.
these
days
.
come
only
once;
~
These
games
.
we
play
.
meant
just
for
us;
~
We
sit
and
watch
.
the
shifting
tide;
~
We
surf
the
waves
.
savor
the
ride;
~
Winds
lift
us
high
.
though
just
so
far;
~
A
kiss
transports
~
us
to
the
stars;
~
These
whispered
words
.
we
shan’t
forget;
~
Invading
space
.
we
can’t
regret;
~
Like
sand
trails
.
with
no
end
or
start,
~
we
trace
a
path
.
through
.
timeless
hearts.

Sands Of Time
As
moments
flow
~
imprints
remain;
~
Impassioned
tides
~
kiss
shimmering
grain;
~
I
reach
for
you
~
and
~
touch
your
hand,
~
whilst
~
Eternity
~
stirs
in
the
sands.

Cast Ashore
where
debris
drifts ashore
~
forming
edges
and lines;
~
where
memories
tumble
~
and
hope
is
defined;
~
where
lovers
have
lingered
~
and
faith
has been
born;
~
where
sun’s
tender kiss
~
precedes
hurricane’s
scorn;
~
where
wind
swirls
its
promise;
~
embodied
deep in the
grain,
~
sculptures
of
life
grow
~
amidst
shadows
of
pain.

I want to let everyone know that I will be leaving town this weekend for an undefined period of time. I will be flying to another state to consult with a medical professional in order to determine whether I might benefit from working with him privately on a very specific functional training program he developed, in efforts to help stabilize my joints, and better hold them in their sockets.
It is past the 2 year mark now, since my bilateral hip surgeries ( arthroscopic repair of labrum tears and bone impingement). I have done all humanly possible to recover from this surgery , and regain some degree of normal function, but my situation continues to worsen, and the pain remains unrelenting.
As an update to My Story which I wrote about a year ago… it was recently determined that I have congenitally shallow anterior hip sockets (hip dysplasia) in addition to very loose ligaments (body-wide). Thus this last surgery in which my bone was carved, and joint capsule violated in order to do the repairs mentioned, did not serve me, and has seemingly rendered my joints more unstable.
I hope that I will be a candidate for this specialized training program with a functional movement expert I have sought out personally, and have great faith in. Through dedication and hard work, I’m hoping to develop even greater body awareness, and gain enhanced neuromuscular control of my ball/socket joints, increasing stability and reducing pain. As you might imagine, I am trying desperately to avoid further surgeries, which the experts warn, offer “no guarantees”.
Although I may be away for several weeks now, I hope to have internet, and my wireless devices handy, and will keep a good eye on everyone here ~ reading posts as much as possible, and hopefully posting some too.
Sending much Love and Light to all of you,
who have been, and continue to be
such an incredible source of strength
and inspiration in my life.

Walk With Me
Let’s take a walk
Come hold my
Hand
We’ll stroll along
Warm grains of
Sand;
Our toes sink in
And melt so
Deep
Smooth tumbled stones
Caress our
Feet;
We’ll step into
The breaking
Waves
Ionic breeze
Ignites our
Day;
And then you’ll stop
To stroke my
Hair
I’ll find your eyes
And hold the
Stare;
You’ll offer me a
Pink sea
Shell
I’ll hear the
Echoed truths it
Tells;
And when we reach
Our resting
Space
I’ll beg to kiss
Your salty
Face.

A Feather Falls
Glistening feather lands
Upon moist crystalized sand
Hope is born again

Conscious Dreams
“Take note of the dreams you have while
you are peacefully awake; for those
dreams house secret windows,
providing clear view of that
which reflects your
most authentic
self.”

Classic Joy
In that pure perfect zone
Excited and free,
Wet luscious sand
Meets a vibrating sea;
Senses are flowing
Sights, textures, and sound,
As he makes his great mark,
In God’s timeless
playground.

Visibility
“The finest and most intricate details are often
imperceptible from a distance.”
~Robyn Lee
Transcendent Shadow
In the still night
Holding stable
Atop white sandy dunes
I lift my head in prayer.
Hearing the moon’s call, I
Submit to the pleas of my own
Desperate breath.
~~~
A warm salt breeze
Strokes my forehead
Gently urging my eyelids to close;
And quietly, I slip away from
~~~
What is real
What is earthly
What is pain.
~~~
Swiftly transported through
Space and time;
Lifted lovingly onto the wings of
Incandescent stars,
I transcend.
~~~
Spinning fervently
Whirling and turning, round and round
like a Dervish;
Finally, I penetrate a solid
Wall of mirrored glass and,
I am welcomed.
~~~
Without thought
Without words
Without pain,
I enter.
~~~
Here
Where my body
Is weightless and free;
And movement, effortless.
~~~
Here
Without bondage
Without boundary
Without pain.
~~~
Here
Where My dreams
Dance freely,
Held in the safe embrace of
Blissful crystal waters;
~~~
And
Where my heart beats in
Perfect sync with the
Rhythmic tides of
My truth.

Submerged
“Yet it is in our idleness,
in our dreams, that the submerged
truth sometimes comes to the top.”
~ Virginia Woolf
Interlude
Together they fly
caressing the sky
Embraced in a dance
enthralled with romance
When the wind says: DESCEND
the flirtation must end
They tumble and fall
but remember it all
