The Dove above

This Dove above
Is Love
As my heart opens
In widening circles
I see more
The beauty of creation
In ever widening circles
My soul senses
The flame
Of a lovingkindness
It is befriending me
In widening circles
This is the deepest love
Yet I hunger for more
In ever widening circles
Forever and ever
This Love is
For all
Inspired by Rilke
What can you hold on to
when you are shaking inside?
What can you hold on to
when your heart is trembling?
The only thing you long for
is to be received when
you fall…
Open my heart wide, so I may see
Open my heart wide, so I may let go
Open my heart wide, so I may know
You, my Lover and Love
Help me bow down deeply, so I may drink
Help me stretch far, so I may pluck
Help me sit down quietly, so I may dine
Last, help me walk gently, so I may bless
With You, my Lover and Love
Now and forever
Forgotten my way
Pressured from all sides
No escape this time
Had to die again
Die from old self
Shed my skin
Agonizing
Vulnerable
Terror
Gave up
Gave in
Lost and rotting
Slowly woke
Lost Light found
Eyes opened
Now
One
I Am
I love You
You are my Creator
Giver of life and breath
Creator of my spirit
Giver of Spirit
Great Mystery
You dwell in the ground of my being
In my innermost heart
Your Spirit meets my spirit
They become one
Great Marvel
This union
Open my inner vision
So I can see
I need to find myself
back in Love again
I must only open my eyes
to see
That I never have been
placed elsewhere
Always in Love fully
is the truth I must know
Maybe it is time to unbury your soul?
Maybe it is time to find your true voice?
Maybe it is time for the world to meet the real you?
Maybe it is time to be your own authority?
Maybe it is time to listen within?
Maybe it is time to worry less about what other people say?
Maybe it is time to choose your own way?
Maybe it is time to find your soul?
Maybe it is time for soul to find you?
Maybe it is time to get off the carousel?
Maybe it is time to sit down and rest?
Maybe it is time to follow your inner calling?
Maybe it is time to unbury your soul?
What is your answer to life calling you from within?
