morning ritual

When taking your morning shower,
what you are cleansing for
you cannot know.

What will arrive today
sensing the cleanliness
of your heart,
of your readiness?

Whatever it is
you will know when it arrives.

For in that moment
you will feel prepared
and somehow sacred.


christmas eve
2014

solstice 2014

in the depth of silence
I don't need to know anything.

stillness turns
toward this magnetic center
my ritual
this devotion,
my plumb line
into the darkness.

there is a moment
when the dark celebrates her light
becoming the way
the truth
and the light
 of Being.
