Farewell

We never want to let go of them, those we love. How could it be any different than that?  We loved them, hold them still ...

Do you think you are the only one

Do you think you are the only one
who's lost something
precious?
Who desires someone magnificent
enough to be worthy of them?
Do you fear you are quite alone
on this path called life?
You're not.

I give my life

I give my life
again and again and again.
It unfolds before me, the Way.
As if the One I love
opens the corners of an envelope and lets me peek
at the wonder of this becoming.
It's always a shock, the seeing.
I can never quite believe that this is it.
This is all.
And it's too much and it's not enough.
I'm never quite enough for the task, for the vision, for the road
ahead.
But that's just me, that's ego, that's fear.
For God, all is as it should be.
That's all that counts, finally.

I've seen the green

Hey, I've seen the green and
I'm running towards it.
It's raining, it's grey, the sun splashes across the sea
and it all lights up.

Nothing to beat this.
