Today i walk inside a peony


she is calling me--
this beautiful flower,
i hear her amongst morning sounds
of waking birds and wind
and her fragrance
plays a song which opens my heart
i breathe and her song
becomes a balm of light entering my body
i climb
this soft path into creation
i breathe God    and my spine
stiff with humanness
becomes a flute of light
i am fluid with notes like water
gliding amidst soft pink petals
tall furled passageways
softer than skin
delicate as a dream
within veins of my chest
floats the music of life
and in becoming
i step out from cells in all directions
i cannot become lost
surrounded by these petals and this path
where God has led me to walk today
i breathe and these words become light
we have known each other
since time began
it is time we dissolve the each

it is time we recognize there is no other                               
                                                                                         
as we have                                                                              
known this                                                                              
since time began                                                                      


Now enter the forest
The Path is Possible Through You
