Practicing

Strong black lightning,
Dove gray sky promises snow,
Templed pain,
Tonglen for you

out my window

evergreen has accepted more snow into its arms;
now that the leaves are gone I can see the tree.

small stone 10.24.12

after 2 hours of silence, I speak the word nascent out loud,
it stirs the animals and the energy shifts.

small stone #31

another sunrise
more beating of my heart
joy is my natural essence
it is for the having and the giving; true joy can't be stolen.

small stone #30

so raw I can hardly breathe; I don't feel strong and don't like the discomfort but I know as right as rain...and thank goodness for impermanence...things will be different in a heartbeat!

small stone #27

unplugging and regenerating,
drawing into my my own "interiority", as John O'Donohue
coined the term.
