Expanding

Far-out, coming
coming again
from the unknown silence
you hear this bird again

feel the vibrations
in your open soul
feel the tenderness
in your dreaming spleen

sense the seed
of expanding love
sense the flow
coming up your spine
      follow.

From your Palms to your Deep Heart

Your outstretched arms
open the sky
of your deep wide heart

your midline breathes
the morning air love
flowing through all your body

out of the field, through your palms
new energy glides in
your pineal sees it
your pituitary sniffs it
even your cerebellum feels it
as it steams through your deep heart
into very single cell

between your outstretched palms
you hold the field you love
sensing, caring, giving
      be what you are.

Loving the Lioness

The dove sleeps
in the dormer window
she is meditating her flight
through the third eye portal

in the warm sand
you see the footprints
of a sleepy lioness
footprints beyond memory

you feel her lazy gait
you sense her waking up
in your visceral realm
in your strong, deep growl

you love the way she moves
from your palms the power
of her slow stretching
flows into your deep heart

turning your neck
in a slow cozy circle
your shoulders open
begin to dance

your lioness yearns to dance
through a brand new day
dancing the low-beat tune
the daughter of the valley plays on her flute
      you move.

New

Your soulbird flies
on secret sunmoon rivers
strong rivers, deep flow

on the edge of the unknown
you hear this pulsing wind
going right through your deep heart

groping for your home field
you know your soul
has left the familiar realm

right here this insecurity
is your joyful home
feel the new pulse with a smile

don’t settle down
trust your sunmoon river
she’s always flowing
      smile to this wonderful moment.

Radiating again

Flying under the wind
in your deep brain the soulbird senses
the almond field expanding
anxious, tight, strong, demanding

listening very closely
your soulbird feels
the deep heart can love this field
connect it to hearing the wind
weave it into the caring breath
move it with a twinkle in the eye

as the gut and the almond field unite
you breathe wider again
with deep-heart waves of love
you take up your flow of caring
      love radiates from the center.

early morning soulbird song

sensing the night wind change
divining a new light
your shoulders glide from sphere to sphere
exploring this strange light
floating in out of the deep heart shadows
your soulbird finds these light sprays
collecting their energy
you breathe them to the midline
they gather in your center
giving strength to your deep heart love
      thank your soulbird

Go

Sensing the shoulder
feeling the quality of the flow
you try some steps
of an inner dance
slow steps, groping steps
extent your awareness
of the life you are meant to live
      dare to go the first step.

Noise

Loud wind
in the twilight
your wise inner snake
tells you stories of the beautiful path
it’s too loud
you can’t hear her
only feel her
from the center
you find your own path
into the light of this day
      go step by step.

Your Soulbird Flies

Soft wind, gliding movement
in constant connection with the source
your soulbird flies
flies through all the intermediate layers
between the old and the new
between the upper and the lower
she knows all the corners
she loves to dance
she plays with the secrets
until you are ready to hear
      follow your soulbird and listen.

Just Following

Your shoulders swing
the autumn wind blows
a fresh wind

finding the way is easy
following the feeling
deep inside

Guidance down to every Cell

Dancing, gliding, smiling
with warm love
your soulbird enters every cell
sent out by your strong heart
your soulbird brings messages of tender love
to every single cell
presence lights up
as your soulbird
flies from cell to cell
they all feel the flow
as your third eye
follows the flight of the soulbird
you sense this dense presence spreading
ready to pass on this love
      ready.

Night-time Purification

One very deep breath
you feel this silence
spreading as a constant flow
movong in waves
clearing the way
your soulbird flies
dense presence flares up
the noise subsides
you feel what you are meant to do
      open for the sign to come.
