If you want to change the world- love a woman - really love her.
Find the one who calls to your soul, who doesn't make sense.
Throw away your check list and put your ear to her heart and listen.
Hear the names, the prayers, the songs of every living thing-
every winged one, every furry and scaled one,
every underground and underwater one, every green and flowering one,
every not yet born and dying one -
Hear their melancholy praises back to the One who gave them life.
If you haven't heard your own name yet, you haven't listened long enough.
If your eyes aren't filled with tears, if you aren't bowing at her feet,
you haven't ever grieved having almost lost her.
If you want to change the world - love a woman - one woman
beyond yourself, beyond desire and reason,
beyond your male preferences for youth, beauty and variety
and all your superficial concepts of freedom.
We have given ourselves so many choices
we have forgotten that true liberation
comes from standing in the middle of the souls fire
and burning through our resistance to Love.
There is only one Goddess.
Look into Her eyes and see-really see
if she is the one to bring the axe to your head.
If not, walk away. Right now.
Don't waste time trying.
Know that your decision has nothing to do with her
because ultimately it's not with who,
but when we choose to surrender.
If you want to change the world - love a woman.
Love her for life-beyond your fear of death,
beyond your fear of being manipulated
by the Mother inside your head.
Don't tell her you're willing to die for her.
Say you're willing to LIVE with her,
plant trees with her and watch them grow.
Be her hero by telling her how beautiful she is in her vulnerable majesty,
by helping her to remember every day that she IS a Goddess
through your adoration and devotion.
If you want to change the world - love a woman
in all her faces, through all her seasons
and she will heal you of your schizophrenia-
your double-mindedness and half-heartednes
which keeps your Spirit and body separate-
which keeps you alone and always looking outside your Self
for something to make your life worth living.
There will always be another woman.
Soon the new shiny one will become the old dull one
and you'll grow restless again, trading in women like cars,
trading in the Goddess for the latest object of your desire.
Man doesn't need any more choices.
What man needs is Woman, the Way of the Feminine,
of Patience and Compassion, non-seeking, non-doing,
of breathing in one place and sinking deep intertwining roots
strong enough to hold the Earth together
while she shakes off the cement and steel from her skin.
If you want to change the world - love a woman, just one woman .
Love and protect her as if she is the last holy vessel.
Love her through her fear of abandonment
which she has been holding for all of humanity.
No, the wound is not hers to heal alone.
No, she is not weak in her co-dependance.
If you want to change the world - love a woman
all the way through
until she believes you,
until her instincts, her visions, her voice, her art, her passion,
her wildness have returned to her-
until she is a force of love more powerful
than all the political media demons who seek to devalue and destroy her.
If you want to change the world,
lay down your causes, your guns and protest signs.
Lay down your inner war, your righteous anger
and love a woman -
beyond all of your striving for greatness,
beyond your tenacious quest for enlightenment.
The holy grail stands before you
if you would only take her in your arms
and let go of searching for something beyond this intimacy.
What if peace is a dream which can only be remembered
through the heart of Woman?
What if a mans love for Woman, the Way of the Feminine
is the key to opening Her heart?
If you want to change the world - love a woman
to the depths of your shadow,
to the highest reaches of your Being,
back to the Garden where you first met her,
to the gateway of the rainbow realm
where you walk through together as Light as One,
to the point of no return,
to the ends and the beginning of a new Earth.
She asked him if he thought she was pretty... he said no.
She asked him if he wanted to be with her forever...he said no.
She asked him if he would cry if she walked away...again, he said no.
She had heard enough, she needed to leave.
As she walked away, he grabbed her arm and told her to stay,
he said, "You're not pretty, you're beautiful.
I don't want to be with you forever, I need to be with you forever.
I wouldn't cry if you walked away, I would die."
Forever yours
Look into my eyes, and see what you may find,
No, look within my eyes- To see my true soul,
Here forever with you-Always by your side-
Removing you from fears- protecting you from tears,
Look within and feel my warmth-
Created for you and you alone.
For you are my true love, and I am forever yours.
The churning froth of the breakers
warm wet sand on hot bare skin
Seasoned with the taste of brine
in a place we've never been
The beach fire just smoulders
on shades of amber, orange and gold
The soothing music of the ocean
where our love first took hold
The gentle rhythm of our lovemaking
Match the aqua waves ebb and flow
Two as one we slide into ecstasy's depths
on a floating bed of soft seaweed
We make fluid love with body and mind
to fulfill our heart's unspoken need
Then one last kiss my mermaid dearest
I will dream my mermaid you are near
Perhaps when we awake to the morning
we'll have forever more to share
I love you without knowing how,
or when, or from where.
I love you simply,
without problems or pride:
I love you in this way because
I do not know any other way
of loving but this,
in which there is no I or you,
so intimate that your hand
upon my chest is my hand,
so intimate that when
I fall asleep your eyes close
Open up your love, and let it flow into me
You're the gift, that has been given to me
I can see inside me, the roses are blooming,
I won't try to deny what I feel ,
It seems that all that was bad has died....
and I can only see these lovely eyes...
staring back at me.... Take my hand ,
Take me with you Hold me tight to you
Love me , and never let go
Look into my eyes and whisper the
little three magic words I love you too
Farewell is not forever Goodbye is not the end
In my thoughts you exist There you always will be
Love is like a gentle breeze
softly kissing your face flowing into your soul...
without time or space It lingers like the aroma of lilac
in the springtime and speaks of sunsets at the twilight.
Love is strong like the currents of a river
consuming the mind...the heart...the spirit
Creating a rainbow through the sunlight
shining so brightly... giving much delight.
Love is comforting like the whispers
of a lover soothing the body... flowing over...
it covers Giving warmth to the core...
so deep within a touch..a feeling...
that will never end.
Love is a joining of two people...
as one uniting all things...the bonding is done
A sharing of dreams...a lifetime together
living the moments...always and forever.
My eyes are closed - A smile ,
So haunting... Your eyes -
So dark Sparkling -
like the stars that smiling
back at us It's another world -
I don't want to wake up!
I don't want you to fade away!
I feel safe , My eyes well shut
I want to live in your grace
My hands in your hands
Warm - I want to this moment
to last move slow - timeless -
to the ocean of love we are falling -
My whole belongs to you
I don't want to compare you to
any other human being I feel safe -
Closed eyes
I dreamed you were a poem,
a poem I wanted to show someone ...
and I laugh and fall dreaming again
of the desire to show you to everyone I love,
to move openly together
in the pull of gravity, which is not simple,
which carries the feathered grass a long way down
through the upbreathing air.
