Oh! How Happy am I !

Oh! How happy I am!

No more thrashing
And bashing about.

Jumping and leaping.

Overjoyed.

Having finally succeeded
In throwing this useless
Brain in the trash.

Ecstasy !

To know nothing

In this space
The Wise Heart has already
Flung all the doors open.
All that was once hidden
Is as a freshly woven tapestry
Hanging brightly in the sun.

Not some exclusive club.
All are welcome here.
Membership is free.
Simply toss your brain
In the container provided.
(you really won't miss it)

Will you walk through the open door?

Though not a coffee drinker, which I know in Oregon, is just plain wrong, but nevertheless, it was like I was on my fifth double mochaccino. Whatever that is. I needed to get out of the hous...

For someone special

The song of your voice echos in my heart, each time I say your name. I see two elder tress. Over time we have grown close together, each in our own different part of the Great forest. The leaves and the tiniest of our branches have discovered each other. It will take time for our branches to fully intertwine. I want to savor and enjoy each moment of that with, YOU!
