what happens next
when Your Soul
is utterly bereft
when You have
no more Rays
of Inspiration left
to call upon
no more Wells
of Creativity within
to draw upon
no more Spells
of Spirit to
unleash or unfurl
no more Ways
to bring Hopeful
words or wishes
to our hurting
Hearts and World?
maybe You take
a deep Breath
and allow It
to reassure You
that You're alive
and You exist
not merely to
stave off death
and wearily survive
but to Breathe
more essential Life
into our World
in Your own
very special Way...
maybe You shed
some traumatic Tears
and allow Them
to roll down
your swollen cheeks
and slip silently
into your ears
(recognizing and releasing
Your somatic fears)
and rain down
into Sacred Soil
of the World
upon which You
prayerfully, carefully Lay...
maybe You light
one simple candle
and allow It
to tentatively flicker
yet persistently glow
to courageously show
that We are
numinous and numerous
Stars that shine
as the Light
of the World
illumining the Luminous
Night as Day...
maybe You touch
the hurting Heart
of another Beloved
with Your Heart
in Mindful Attention
Face to Face
and allow That
to create Space
to relieve tension
and reveal Grace
reminding Us that
We are Beloved
and We Belong
in this World
as Living Words
that embody Love
Beyond what words
can ever say...
what happens Today?
Let All Go...
Let It Be.
