Dancing
That liminal space
Between my body and air
waves
Creates a dance.
Fluid form.
There is salvation,
Thunder from the
heavens,
Tears and lightening,
A host, a feast, a
conflagration.
There is laughter.
The dance takes me up
In her motherly embrace,
Holds me softly,
Listens closely,
Takes in all my sorrow,
Lets me fly.
Tell me I can
dance
The world becomes a
mystery
an ecstasy, a
history
of all who dance
for the joy
for the taste
of pure
enchantment
in midst of the
everyday
in this instant every
wish
is granted
in the play
-- body with bliss
--
of celebration
Bliss enchanting melody
movement in twosome candidly
gliding beyond duality
beyond mundanity
essence of dance
Teach Peace
Dancing in the classroom
Body wisdom
Reaches through neural
pathways
regenerates whole to whole
soul to soul
touching life
exactly
I feel you in my mind, my
spine
Feel me dancing
elongating muscles
extending connections
Winter
Solstice
The darkness descends.
As we cry out for warmth and
light
Our voices turn to spirit-imbued
song
Our frantic movements against the
cold
turn to ecstatic dancing.
We take comfort from each other's
warmth
and celebrate the life within
struggling to survive.
'Tis the season to relearn the
magic
As we share our heavy burdens
of fear and despair.
Joining hands, dancing 'round the
fire,
we raise our sight to the sky
and each day,
the days get lighter.
When Galaxies Dance
Together
Startled stars gasp and
bow
Great Time takes a break
between
"then" and "now"
All of eternity swirls into
certainty
then back out into wavicle
trance
in the throes of a pose
where it stops no one
knows
or whether
forever
Galaxies Dance Together
a bowl of water
Deepest indigo
An image of Goddess dancing with Gods,
deep within the water expressing
transient quality of dance,
expressing moment to moment in body bliss
in deep commitment to the flow
Drink the image, dance to the magic
Feel deeply Feel joy
Streaming in and out of consciousness, I
don't know what I know.
I feel,
but fleetingly.
I feel exhiliration and fear. I feel so
abysmally sad, so
ecstatically unbound, so small and
insignificant, so rebellious and angry,
so tired, so endlessly used up, so guilty,
so abused, so resigned, so itchy
to be free,
so overwhelmed, so stagnant, so magickal, so
impossible, so
dangerously close to the edge
yet happy to be here dancing on the head of
a
pin too small to do other than
fly.
There is magic.
There is the ability
to send out energy
and have it return
as your heart's desire.
There is a magical path that will take us
there
once we have the courage and grace to find
it.
Like the end of the rainbow
with its pot of gold,
it's tied up in koans and hidden between the
dimensions.
The only thing I know to do is
dance.
"10 things to do to draw up
creative energy"
dance
daydream
worry with logic
delve into feelings
play with words and meanings
take a play journey to impossible
possibilities
web surf; idea surf; ride a wild
wave
face down a demon to discover your other
faces
read of random wisdom
dance!
A confluence of
ripples
scoops up objects of
prophetic reclamation
(seen smaller in the
glass-eye of science)
readies to set off
more forceful expression
Elemental reaction
Metamagick
metamorphoses
any body's guess
Smooth glide out of
cavernous hiding
into buoyant seas
Gala release to
navigate (no hesitation) past
history's
sunken shore
-- to explore, forward
-- captivated, not
captured
Fleet from soul to
feet, swim enraptured
immersed in the only
delightfully lighted path
Form flows with
function
at last, riding
elegant waves
gracefully, recreated
as dance
Lullaby of
Light
Ride a stallion of snow to the heart of
your dreams
Imbibe the sweet nectar of endless
romance
Twirl into the world of magic and melody
and dance.
Send out twinkling moonbeams as smiles of
delight
Gift us all with love's vision of bountiful
peace
Pour out joy that every beauty filled
impulse increase.
Find a song that fills your
heart
Feel a beat that sets you free
Embrace the dance of who you're meant to be.
Simple Things
"We need to believe in simple
things."
She said with a curtsy and a
smile
And with that proceeded to
change her shoes and
dance.
The wind and the waves seemed to
chant
in flute and fiddle and
drum
played by the white-robed ones
behind her
As she danced out a story of love
and remembrance
and, yes, simple
things.
So a vision was made to
appear
before the hypnotized
crowd.
The clock struck backwards and
forwards
through seasons and
ages
Not of Czars and Wars and Events or
Inventions
But leaves falling, snow drifting,
folk singing,
birds calling, children laughing,
bread cooling.
And soon the crowd became a joyous
dancing throng
of beaming folk,
each remembering special
moments,
breaths of air on dew-dropped dawns
of spring,
or the warmth of a loved one's
hand,
or a birdsong.
And she spoke once more before
dissolving
into the mist in a warm sparkling
glow:
"Believe not in salvation nor sin
nor in reward --
we must live as we can,
and believe in
simple things."
Mythopoesis
Reality enrobed in symbols
Where would we be outside our
trance?
Ecstatic in the sunrise
Open to the rainbow rays
Moving, life within the dance
Each cell, each system,
synchronized
Vibrating to celestial tones
Each jagged lonely fragment
Joyfully bonded, created anew
Sent on to chance.
Enchanting
(for Kala Snowflower)
Magical child, the world awaits you
Not just this place,
any world you care to grace,
relate to, turn your lovely face to.
"We love you"
sing the winds, the seas,
the creatures large and small
"We love you always"
Singing and dancing long into the night,
you turn it into day.
Play that haunting melody.
It moves you into dance,
into a chance to name your trance,
to name us all
as we dance before your eyes.
The skies will dance for you,
will open wide their hearts of stars.
Sparkling through the night,
Shining into day.
You play.
All of creation dances to your song.
We dance with you,
creating worlds of joy.
Standing here before you, I want to take
your hand
to be swirled up into a magical
dancing
to be taken to worlds of beauty
entrancing
to give you the will and the wonder to set
you free.
Can you see me?
Revelation
Weave into the fabric of a tribe
of artistic dancers.
Fall under the spell of pure
magic.
Silent night, peace and
cold
Imbue me with music
In ecstasy, I dance to the
stars.
Rainbow Shop
And she sold me
rainbows
dancing gaily 'cross the
window
windchimes in
light.
And she smiled me
daisies
and bursting bright blooms of
summer.
And she told me,
maybe,
if you're looking in
the right
direction,
a miracle may grace your
sight.
And I smiled
dancing
into the day.
