“Come now
my
love,”
~
you
softly
say;
~
I
close
my eyes;
~
I
slip
away.
~
“Walk
swift,
our path,”
~
your
whisper
pleads;
~
I
find
my
breath
~
concede
my
need.
~
You
mark
the trails
~
with
pines
of
gold;
~
You
guide
my
steps
~
whilst
truths
unfold;
~
Beneath
our
tree
~
I wait
for
you,
~
unearthing
dreams
~
we
never
knew.

Wandering … aimlessly
Venturing
into the
heart
of
your
evergreen
wood.
~
Reaching … trustingly
Taking
firm
hold
of
your
long
fibrous
branches
~
Sinking … intently
Grounding
myself;
Entwined
in
the
labyrinth
of
your
deep
faithful
roots
~
Hiding … cautiously
Seeking
shelter
beneath
the dense
brush
of
your
vast
eternal
strength;
~
Until
at
last
~
you
whisper
my
name
~
and
breathe
me
full
~
of
pure
pine
essence;
~
Transforming
conscious
being
and
~
Flooding
my
soul
with
~
Light.

Like a spider,
setting forth
to make
her
way;
Strand by strand,
she weaves
together
antique
threads
of
hope
truth
wisdom.
~~~
Carefully
connecting
delicate
fibers
of
promises
suspended;
She watches
as
mosaic patterns
emerge,
revealing
small
segments of
self.
~~~
Laboriously,
she knits
complex
arrangements,
Intricate
mazes
designed to
capture
dreams
unrealized;
tying
meticulous knots
tightly,
at each
cross-section.
~~~
With
tenuous
twists and
turns,
she
spins
through
tangled tales
of
love;
swinging
wildly
from
silken strings
of
ambiguity.
~~~
Finally,
in the heart
of her
mandala
she
rests
~~~
Knowing
that
her work
for
today
is
done.
~~~

she found new hope that someday,

“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.”

“Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul.
It is daily admission of one’s weakness.
It is better in prayer to have a heart without words,
than words without heart.”
~ Mahatma Gandhi

Rhythmic waves of the heart
Kaleidoscopic hues of the soul
Saltwater saturated flesh
Deeply immersed
Encircled

“What is more worthy of your pain than the evolution of your soul?”
~ Gary Zukav

This quote by Mr. Zukav above is insightful, but I feel my soul has evolved enough at this point!
Much Love, Robyn Lee
