These posts are visible with my most recent writing at the top, but the story starts with the first post. The poems have been added more or less as they surfaced and evolved through the process. Thank you for taking some time to explore with me. For more information and/or to schedule a reading contact me at meanderingspublications@gmail.com"> Bio page for Find Maine Writers:

Peaceful Acceptance

Looking Up - Backyard of Tara and Toby Burdet and Aaron Nau
Peaceful Acceptance

Tender moments of connection
await awareness as
the need for understanding relaxes.
Simultaneously sinking in and rising up,
 one is able to
access knowing,
trust togetherness,
savor the freshness
 and energy of expansion.
Waters of being flow freely,
breath diffuses deeply,
heart pulsates purely
and there is a tuning in,
a tuning out.
Bits of bedrock beneath
may rumble or tumble,
then sift and settle
 in new places
with a sweet sense of
of realignment,
a suspension of striving,
an opportunity to just be.
 Tangled tendrils
no longer matter
and the taproot is nourished
by what is real and right,
as it has been all along.
A reaching without seeking,
a simple stretching,
a peaceful acceptance of now.
