Oh Divine Master

Beloved I Am That I Am

this life is yours completely!

Use me ~ consume me ~ dissolve me

in the mighty

Fire of Love

until I become sacred ash

used to bless all pilgrims

journeying home.

March 2012

I saw you for an instant out of the corner of my heart…
like sitting in a church and seeing a dove
pass by the stained glass window.

You have been here all along…
circling and waiting for my focus to shift
and my trust in The Mystery to deepen and grow.

Now…I know what I have only suspected,
always dreamed of
and eternally longed for.
Now…I see ONLY you!

January 2012

I feel you approaching like Spring,
gently warming the ground of my Being
and preparing for
The Great Blossoming of The Heart.

Joyful petals fall upon my path
leading me to the sweet fruit of this
auspicious union.

March 2012

Live truly
without regret
open and expectant
free of attachment
to anything.
The winds of change
will surely blow away
all that you cling to…
leaving you naked
like a winter branch
awaiting Spring.
The birds know
what the branch will yield…
that’s why they sing.

Receive your Self…
embody the
I Am of your Being
and be filled with Light!

This is what the body is made for…
to house The Holiest of Holies
and then this life becomes
a benediction of Grace.

As you flower like a
Lotus of Divine Love
the fragrance of perfect peace
becomes your offering.

Receive your Self
in the silent citadel of
The Sacred Heart
and bow at your own holy feet.

2011

I behold Love
and only Love…
whether sparkling and apparent
or just below the surface of encrusted fear.
Love abides constant and eternal,
like moon glow
shining and then hiding
behind night clouds
yet remaining unchanged
by passing weather.

2011

The door of my heart,
which I imagined allowed Love to enter and exit,
has dissolved completely.
What now?
Just Love, constant and exposed as the true
Mistress of this life I so fondly called mine.
In laying down all of my possessions,
Love possessed me and now there is only One.
Love claimed my heart
because I disowned that too.
Love cannot resist a surrendered heart
and quickly pulls it into the 
Holy Light
where all hearts return home.

September 2011

The wind chants loudly at my door today.

She must be heard, she has much to say.

Her anthem calls to my immortal soul,

“Remember the depth of your love and role”.

I opened the door and welcomed her in.

Her spirit rejoiced, “It is time to begin!”.

Her power and passion mirror my heart.

Change is blowing a sweet new start.

The trees all dance to a tune divine,

as the Sun illumines with an ethereal shine.

All of creation moves with great ease…

when there is no resistance, life is a breeze.

I now step into a limitless place

and take a deep breath of wind’s grace.

1996

“Oops” God said
as He overflowed the chalice
of my heart with that
vintage love wine
only He has access to.

“Look”… He said…
“I’ve got you blessedly drunk again,
so for once,  just stay that way
and you won’t have to deal
with that awful separation
hangover any more”.

Cheers!

Life is Grace.

Pure and simple.

Recognition invites bounty.

Denial is poverty to the soul’s expression.

Be free, if only for an instant,

and allow yourself to know

that Bliss and Grace and Love

are here now, in you, as you,

eternally present and unchanging.

The immutable Self showers

the nectar of It’s Grace…always.

Open, open, open now

and receive the blessing

of your birthright

for Life is Grace!
