Gypsy Girl

Gypsy girl
comes with a gift
to sense and feel
what lies beneath

generations of instincts
lie under the surface
freedom to move
uncover the secrets

cannot be contained
will suffocate and die
need room to dance
listen to the messages

space needs to be clear
of those who impose
so many beliefs
their weight is heavy

you need the space
of life around
you hear, you see
you dance to the rhythm

Gypsy girl
now is a woman
where is your wagon
your freedom's inside you

you need to dance
to feel the air
breeze thru your skin
commune with nature

time to make music
awaken the spirits
much ancestral wisdom
still lies dormant

but it's there
i can feel it
the remnants of captivity

spirits of the land
so much healing is possible

we can remember our dreaming
time to awaken
new beginnings
right relations

we stand at the end
of many different cycles
the end and the beginning
time for celebration

The Day has Arrived


The day has arrived
how glorious it looks
so gentle
fresh and new

a light so perfect
for the eyes
closed in need of rejuvenatory sleep

so much perfection
surrounds us

the orchestra of birds
has begun
nothing imposes it's energy
they all caress and support

we can learn much
from nature
so humble her approach

she gets on
with her purpose
nothing appears to distract

again
so much to learn
in our rambunctious
human ways

trying to control 
the outcome of all
rule with power
over the Earth

what we crave
we're ignorant
we want to feel complete

but no amount
of accumulated 'stuff'
will ever sooth the soul

the Earth
the most precious gift
given for us
to exist

whilst we realize
why we are here

to know true love 
in our hearts

so yes the clock is ticking
like sand - it sifts away
the gift of life
for such a short time

what will I do
with mine

The Silence of the Morning


 The silence of the morning
has always chased my soul
as long as I remember
I've sought the stillness that vibrates

It touched me in ways
I know - I never understood
it's caresses felt like God himself
cradling me in his arms

So much beauty exists here
silent - no - a choir
of voices not familiar
celestial sounds abound

My ears crave this silence
my heart yearns in size
this 'music' seems to come from me
what have we truly been gifted

Like the story of the Musk deer
forever he keeps searching
intoxicating aroma's follow
not knowing the source
of their beauty

Giving thanks to the morning
I remember
all of life is serving
the one great source
of all life
their example I can follow

Warm Rays of Sunshine


Warm rays of sunshine
caress the earth
green and fertile
awakening particles

 glorious site
that first morning sun
showering it's splendour
on country fields

soft and gentle
a tender touch
awakening all life
to another day 

 wintry mornings
 cause icicles to form
imprisoning the motes
awaiting the dawn

freed from their hold
of water turned cold
Ah!! so welcome
  warm rays of the sun

regal production
this life - so giving
promoting growth, abundance
and beauty

imagining the 'little folk'
bunked down for protection
over the night
of winter's pruning

 morning sun's rays
embracing their essence
carrying the energy
of Sun God's wisdom

  joy, full, in their heart
they give thanks 
for their blessings

  understanding
what they've been given

 filled to the brim 
with life
they work
supporting the balance
on the Earth we live

 golden rays of the sun
now spread even further
can feel the energy
of life unfolding

 so much majesty
all around us
can I stop for a moment
give thanks
for this bounty
