untamed and shameless
ablaze against the seeds of life
august she let go
i'll meet you there.
xo
the gold thread of dawn
arrives with wings of finches
stars become flowers
welcome to this bright new day
where side by side
sunflowers are laying down the darkness
and holding up the light.
i hope you will visit each each other
with a passion
and leave a love note along the way!
xo
in dark arms of trees
sky burns her brightest candles
hangs prayer flags and cries
in the midst of tragedy and unrest
i look up to the gathering light
which falls so evenly on
us all.
there is no holding back,
no judgement,
or hesitation.
light simply enters us.
lifts our eyes forever upward
above the fray
of our wretched brokenness.
reaches down into our darkest hours,
lights more candles, hangs more glory.
every new day since the beginning of time
repeats her flood of light and hope;
"wake up, wake up
wake up to love."
may everything we do
be an altar of love.
live from your whole heart
be the light, be the flower
one breath at a time
***
for some life seems to stretch comfortably
into forever,
while others
stand on the edge
grateful for one more moment;
the truth is no one knows.
so dance.
laugh.
cultivate compassion.
forgive.
encourage.
be the light, be the flower.
love fiercely and haiku forever..
