When the Deep Spaces Speak


When the Deep Places Speak

Awakenings –
when things open and unfurl,
fueled by the warmth of
nurturing, golden light 
from above and around
and within.
Surfaces and cells 
stretch, soften,
give voice to all
that has been and
needs acknowledgment
in the now. 
Some things,
long forgotten,
may seep to the surface
or adhere from outside.
This may ache,
 cause some quivers,
or the need to cry away.
There will likely be grief
from things known
and things not.
Another opportunity
to sit in stillness,
 let come what may,
allow it into
  the light of day.
No need to carry,
or hold on, 
or be held back
any longer.
No need to worry,
judge, 
allow concocted wrongness
 to infiltrate.
Roots hold fast,
purity flows,
love supports and embraces
when those powerful and pure
 deep places speak.

  1. Very nice! Speaks to those deeper spaces in myself that need to "give voice"... including "grief of things not known" and the "concocted wrongness" of others (i.e. their accusations of my "wrongness"... Wonderful phrases...
