Earthly Delights....

Life feels like a flowering spring garden with a sense of peace and satiation that is my life right now.  I feel the tendency to hold my breath and close my eyes tight to hang on to the moment.  But like a bird caged I must open my eyes and the door of my heart and set myself free to move into the next moment of continued bliss and profound deepening of love and growth.  And like a new bird to flight I am careful with my wings and fly in a circle looking to the door of the cage and the safety or perception of safety it provided.  Now I am free to fly and dip and glide in the breezes of this soaring feeling of air beneath my wings, the love that lives in my heart.  My heart is so full and yet I am not in the garden yet with the one whom I think of so often.  The distance and journey we have begun is one of a "Thousand miles" but we have taken that first step and continue to move forward on this garden path.  I am dizzy from the fragrance of the flowers there and the beauty that I behold.  The air is alive with his presence and yet hidden from my sight.  I am held in suspense for when we meet again and paint the picture of our journey together in vibrant and varied color.  I will be his muse and he the painter.  I will be the kite and he will be the string and together we will fly in the sky of warm summer breezes.  The oceans of waves of our love will ebb with this tide and the shore will be our playground.  The music held between our hearts will play like a symphony and feel like the most amazing ballad ever sung.  The garden of my heart will burst forth the flowers of the energy that is brought by the most amazing soul that I have had the privilege of knowing in my life as a companion on this garden path and journey of life. I am blessed. I am blessed. I am, I am, I am..........


Forget not that the earth
delights to feel your bare feet
and the winds long to play with your hair.
