Fear On The Run

Dont-FeedOn the eleventh of October,
when the leaves began to whirl,
The Fear planned an escape
from a Grounded Girl.

Her thighs were so rooted.
Earth connection quite solid
The Fear considered
her chakra too squalid.

The Fear said to its lover,
(The Doubt in her gut)
“This girl knows her rights
and kicks regrets in the butt!”

“Oh please”, said the Doubt
not convinced the least bit
“What next, will you tell me
She trusts quite a bit?”

“Why yes,” said the Fear,Dont_Feed_me“She most certainly does.
She’s accepting and centered and
breathes away Fuzz.”

“It’s the Passions, the Loves
who  fill her with Light!
No large tensions
or bloated Blames in sight!”

“Is she aware of her legs?
Is she steady and grounded?
Is her openness to Grace
alive and unbounded?”

“Yes, that’s the problem
I’m shrinking and skinny
and craving abrasive loud energy,
you ninny!”

“I crave thoughts of tension,
sudden threats of survival,
I’d even take worry of
times of arrival.”

“I’m making a run for it,
I might even get caught,
put behind bars
with the Shames and Distraughts”

“I need to find shelter
at the base of a spine,
a new first chakra:
a bit misaligned.”

“I’m willing to stay small
cute, cuddly, and silly.
just notice me, love me,
accept me, you nilly.”

    Said my young friend who wants a connection:
    “I wave. I shake hands, with no objection.
    No pain, no remorse, no one intervening
    a choice I make without much thought or meaning~”

    “…Is there a gesture that honors each other?
    That celebrates greeting sisters and brothers?
    Can you show me HOW to express happiness
    with social and spiritual significance?”

    YES, my dear friend, I can show you a mudra~
    a gesture of sorts, for kings, friends and sudras.
    Place hands together from fingers to wrists~
    like a knife, cut through difference that may exist.

    This immediately gets you to the shared ground~
    of ALL people, of all cultures, of all sound.
    It’s a recognition, a united force~
    that honors equality of all from the Source.

    Close your eyes and tune into your own inner light;
    your divine spark that forever burns bright.
    That’s the key, my dear friend, you must see your OWN
    in order to recognize others’ light shown.

    BLEND your five fingers of action on the left~
    with five fingers of knowledge on the right~
    to achieve the symbol of perfection
    the union of opposites; interconnection.
    FInd the Connection of your brain and your heart;
    your sun and your moon; your stop and your start.
    Marry together reason and emotion~
    unite thoughts and feelings, stillness and motion.

    Join positive and negative; hot and cold~
    theory with practice, silver with gold~
    Wisdom with Method, intellect with instinct~
    talent with genius, and feelings with think!

    Exhalation and inhalation, ,brain and heart~
    Align in harmony, right from the start!
    There is indeed no sphere of our existence
    untouched by the symbolic significance~

    of Namaste~

  • Grounded? Yes! Restricted? No!

    blank-slate_copyFor many of us, a new year represents a blank slate, a Tabula Rasa. Imagine being able to “refresh” any or all areas of your life. Now visualize this table with two columns, Yes and No. You create your truest life by thoughtfully choosing what goes in the No column and what is a Yes. Everything you say YES to and everything you say NO to matters.  What if your yes’s and no’s were tabulated and at the end of a day, week, year, lifetime, you could see how the data, otherwise known as your life, balanced out?
