A reminder.

July 3rd, 2009

This sacred place.
patient and beautiful.
Teaches us to rest in this moment.
Until we witness;
Frowns that break under the weight of beauty.
Smiles that reflect the gentle gaze our souls have met.
Sacred laughs turning into sacred tears
and the secrets of the earth;
slowly singing melodies into our ears
praising peace into a parade of branches and leaves
Until It feels like
my heart.
beating into the earth.
and the earth
beating into your heart.
And its rhythms begin to sway our bodies to the tune
of the music that we are.
And it plays so lovely and true.
In its nobility and grace, it frees mountains and trees
so that lies and deceit no longer tint the shades from which we see
and somehow as if looking into a mirror,
we see the most wonderful parts of ourselves when we look at each other.
patient and beautiful.
Where we can forever rest in this moment.
This sacred space.
