Being There

Leave a comment

“I think when you are somewhere, you oughta be there. ‘Cause it’s not about how long you stay in a place. It’s about what you do while you’re there. And – when you go, will the place where you’ve been be any better off for your having been there?”

-Chris-in-the-Morning, KBHR, Cicely, AK

Week 7 – This summer I am surprising myself with nested meditation – through images this week, inspired by psychologist Kevin Anderson, author of Divinity in Disguise. Signs are everywhere … recent trip to Cicely, Alask- I mean, Roslyn Washington.

Serena Park is quiet tonight

Serena Park is quiet- tonight,

raindrops are splashing on rooftops and trees

Serena Park is quiet- tonight,

raindrops are splashing on rooftops, and trees

sway to the musical moisture.

Serena Park is quiet because

the gun fire is drowning.

The garden calls, sweetly, fragrantly

Smells of green and geranium, pungent and true.

Inhabit your emptiness, she says. Let the fast set you free.

My sweetness is gone

In grief, the skin burns

In grief, the skin burns

white, blanching heart and soul.

In grief, the skin burns

white, blanching, heart and soul

gasping for breath

In grief, the skin burns

white, blanching, heart and soul

gasping for breath.

Until a breeze stokes embers and aura

In grief, the skin burns

white, blanching, heart and soul

gasping for breath.

Until a breeze stokes embers and aura

lifting smoke and loss.

If I leave you

If I leave, you

will come for me.

If I leave, you

will come for me,

opening your spaces so I can see

If I leave, you

will come for me,

opening your spaces so I can see

my own flesh and bone in you.

If I leave, you

will come for me,

opening your spaces so I can see

my own flesh and bone -in you,

so clear what’s meant for me.
