She flows as the wind
Gently caressing
My skin, my heart, my essence
Enlivened
In unspeakable passion
I am incinerated
Only my ashes remain
Awakened from the dream
In her soft and wise words
My everpresent angel
Life is color
Seen through her eyes
Life is joy
Felt through her heart
Life is truth
Known through her Light
Life, wonder, loveliness
In the presence of my angel
She flows in the winds
Touching
Knowing
Living
As one
Chaotic dreams of the psychotic darkness
spill into this bright and beautiful new day.
“Why are there so many conflicting thoughts
and desires? Why can’t I make them go away?”
“Peace is in the eternal Mind of God.” I hear
myself with such wisdom and conviction. Yet
another voice, clear and present, also beckons
me thus “I need to be heard. I need to be
loved. I need to be filled. I need to understand.”
These needs, these requests, these demands,
seemingly reasonable and innocent, are the
reason for my lapses of peace.
“Show me the light of true wisdom, Father.”
I hear, unsure, which of the two voices
this time is speaking. Perhaps, on the other
thought, it is another voice. Three voices,
three conflicting sets of wants and needs.
The child needs; the Self knows; the
negotiator tries to make sense of it all.
“The negotiator has the final say. The
negotiator is the home of free will. Choose
well and with much care. Hear the others,
yes, and then, choose well and with
much care.”
From the deepest of depths
Where you and I are one
There calls out a spirit
Together with your son
Jesus, my salvation
Fill my heart with you
Friend and constant teacher
In everything we do
Present in my life
Consistent source of all
Standing in your love
Answering your call
Union of power and peace
Reveal your face to me
Precious and perfect brother
Hear today my plea
In you, all troubles fall
With you, all life is grand
Renew my love in you, Lord
Together, forever we’ll stand
Touched by Your hand
Bathed in your light
Filled in your presence
Alive in your love
God of all mercies
Hear your peoples’ prayers
All you have to give us
Release unto this day
As we lift our hearts to you
We shout your Son’s good name
Jesus, we adore you
Rise in us right now
All of your love
Flows from your hand
Filling our hearts
Filling the land
All of our love
We offer to you
Surrendering wholly
In all that we do
Your love is forever
Your love, it flows through
With grace, we are filled
In your heart, always true
