The Courtesan, The Healer, The Magdalena

~

I love you as one who is hidden

~

Between us are shadows

and the soul of beauty 

that reveals us 

to each other

~

The silent God

inside of the night

blooms like a wind

within your smile

~

And my smile answers...

in the scent of your skin

the light of stars

blessing our hands 

with kindness shared

~

A quiet magic

liquid prayer, flowing

through each thought

and each breath

drenching the darkness

with incantations

of shimmering light

~

A path opens

between the worlds

toward healing

toward forgiveness

toward home

Somatic Mosaic

Each body is etched from light

and born from the one dream

~

Somatic Mosaic

~

Pattern of sinew

bone print

breath

~

Wing born

crown of antler

iron carved

shape of hoof

~

Our bodies

the body of earth

drinking ancient stories

written with rain

and symbols of healing

shaped into air

by silent hands

~

Somatic Mosaic

~

A darkness woven

is not a curse

 revealing the constellations of light 

as night skies

bring forth the pattern of stars

that we may find North

and a pathway home.

~

Each body is etched from light 

and born from the one dream

and to the one dream,

we each return.

Breath of Spirit

 speaking the ancient word

inside of everything

A storm is coming

wind shift

shapes of light

~

A storm is coming

within stillness

the quiet gathering

songs of water

poems of lightning

the secret language

naming colors of rain

~

graylight

wind dark

mosaic of cloud

weave of amber

carved topaz 

hidden copper

dust of onyx

frost fire

patterns of ice

obsidian glow

blue lace of stars

~

A storm is coming

the ancient words of light

are now being born

"Los que sostienen la Luz"

~~

~~~~

~~

There are those who hold Light

~~

When we have somehow entered darkness

 no longer able to hold beauty within us

the light bearer brings a necessary strength

soul friend, north spirit, point of compass, ember of hope

Your presence has beckoned me to remember

to not forget the ancient path

of healing 

and forgiveness

and the medicine of being kind

We each have carried the other's light

through war and endless battle 

of shadow and loss

Uncertainty darkens

the still evening, the quieting glow

a bearer of light remains

silent and steadfast

guiding northward

toward truth and home

Always

the presence of light

essence within 

each of us, a sacred holding

as we find our way.

Alchemy~ A Taste of Ash

~~~~

~

A taste of ash

amber darkened

the honeyed light

bones of flameburst

becoming stars

sky seeding

and planets born

~

A taste of ash

deep sweetened essence

scented indigo

water of heaven

 ...a sulphur wind

dryness of bitter white

Mercury and quiet earth

~

A taste of ash

elixir of elements

memory and silver heat

the pattern of bones

bloom into air

through the ancient door

a blossom of starlight

and always

~

a taste of ash.

" Ghost Light ~ The Fall of Angels"

 ~~~~ 

~

There is no map to the other world

No path to trace with compass wings

No winds that taste of song and ancient sky

~

There is a whispered light, silvering 

edge of time

and here we remain...

~

Bound in ghost light

Bound in darkness

Our wings are earth bound,

feather shorn

dense with grief

and stars grow dim

making truth and north uncertain

~

Only the ghost light 

guidance of shadows

burning the pattern of heaven

into memory

and dream.

The Closeness of Spirit~ Breath of Sky~ Song of Wings

~~~~

~~

A silence waits on the edge of my bones

on the edge of my breath

~ 

A beauty so vast and clear

it cannot be contained

...so it waits quietly

at the edge

~

So vast this silence

moving through language of colored air and spoken light

so vast, this silence breathes

the songs of earth

the songs of stars

~

While I attend the dark mosaic

hidden within me

still, the quiet beauty waits

~

Presence of spirit

the quiet dream within each of us

the quiet dream within everything

everywhere

~

Breathing us open

a song

turning 

again

into Light.
