Too Much (New Year 2022)

we feel stressed

with too much 

anxiety and heartbreak

behind us

and too much 

uncertainty and worldshake

ahead of us

and i Wonder

how much more

we can take...

yet i sense

beneath the plates

of our topography

tectonically shifting

above the states

of our mentality

maniacally drifting

a Centered Essence

that Grounds us

a Celestial Presence

that Astounds us

and a Cosmic Candescence

that abounds within

and among us...

so may our Year 

ahead of us

be one of 

surprise and Spirit

joviality and Jubilee

re-Creation and re-Connection

Passion and Compassion

new Worlds to explore

new Wonders to Adore

new Wishes to caress

new Words to express...

may we all receive

the free Gift

of each new

Breath and Heartbeat

sight and sound

taste and touch

dream and desire 

with open Arms

open Minds

open Hearts

open Lives...

may we be encouraged

by the Love

that is stronger

than death

embraced 

by the Grace

that is greater

than fear

and empowered

by the Peace

that Transcends

our comprehension

(and condescension

and apprehension)

and embodies Hope...

and may we discover 

buried far beneath

the pervasive polarity 

and seeming scarcity

of human charity

the astounding abundance

of Sacred Solidarity

and Holy Hilarity

that binds us together

and reminds us forever

that in a world

that constantly unfurls

the despair and disparity

of not having enough

in the Reality

of the Divine Economy

(which at its Heart

is truly a Comedy)

we have been blessed

with Too Much...

Let It Be...

Amen.
