The Wonders of Now

Clearwater Lake, Maine on May 26, 2016

The Wonders of Now

My body is speaking volumes today.
Deep aches are uncoiling and letting go.
I'm listening to what might provide insight
and willfully releasing anything
not based in love.
Fervent emotions roll
as powerful, sparkling waves.
Some break and roar,
but most swell and settle softly.
My intrepid spirit feels strong and worthy
as rivulets of love
find new pathways to flow within.
I'm both tired and energized
and deeply know that
right here, right now
I am reaping the benefits of
intense personal exploration.
My body, mind and spirit
will continue to expand and assimilate
as I honor my roots,
soak in sensations of healing,
fan the flames of my passions,
and breathe deeply
the wonders of now.
