The Jouney Continued

continuing on from the previous post

traveling up the North Fork towards Polebridge Montana

a place to cook on this hot summer day

flowers lined the high mountain road

what is this chipmunk digging for?

next it scurried into the wild current bush

had a feast while i looked on

 summer leaves still brilliant green

lake water divine

nature beauty sublime

Autumn Sunset

Autumn Sunset

in the presence of light
we are purified

in the presence of color

we come present

in the presence of mountains majestic

rich spaciousness

in the presence of light
a luminosity that nourishes

in the presence of reflection
we soften with the satiny surface

with sunset

we breathe 

in sync with life

From the Earth We Do Rise

 

from the earth we do rise

born of spirit and earth

we are

a wee tiny baby

potential to grow

on and on

eating breathing drinking

from the bosom

of mother and earth

from the earth we do rise

bodies made from this planet

filled with eternal spirit

A Grand Elixir

come and whisper in my ear
what I need to hear
spoken from a sincere heart
to the spirit of the lake

gently stepping over mossy rocks
to a depth of water that one can then glide into
taking in the visible beauty of the world around
floating
there is the glory of the sky for ceiling
held in the arms of a lively forest

mushrooms and flowers as companions
heart enlivened
to sense more deeply
into the nature of the moment

looking with more than eyes
into the invisible
of what is visible
a grand elixir

view becomes vast like an ocean
the world transforms
into a sensuous amalgamated entity
no longer the same woman
the world is my lover and I feel like a bride
