What delights me these days is the
wild tantric dancing love affair
of Spirit and Soul
My body
A living, breathing,
conscious piece of the Earth’s ecosystem
A wondrous gift from Gaia herself
Little bits of earth, air, fire and water
magically shaped and formed
into a friendly patch of land
to call my own
My body contains a soul
a spark, a frequency, a vibration all its own
my ensouled Body
this glorious form,
is alive with its own personality
and intelligence
Body and Soul
Uniquely individual and yet simultaneously
connected to and a part of
Nature,
This planet,
Gaia Herself
I am one with all living things
I cannot be separated from life itself
Body and Soul
My home sweet home
Earth’s heartbeat courses though me
Guiding and informing
Filling me with unlimited safety,
balance and beauty
I come alive where the ancestors and the breath intersect
My sweetly Souled Body
the piece of earth that I am entrusted with
caring for
nourishing
falling in love with
and embodying
has its own way of perceiving
everything I encounter
It has its own voice and expression
it sometimes lends running commentary
of emotional conversation
to all of my experiences.
It sometimes observes, quietly,
taking in the sounds
spoken and unspoken of the people,
places and things I discover
it is always present and attentive and curious
It searches for what is known and familiar
and delights in similarities
It is in awe of what is different,
unknown and yet to be discovered
Ahhhhh, I love my body and soul
… and yet, unbelievably there is more!
My Spirit
vibrant and mysterious,
emerging from Oneness
on a journey of self discovery
leaps into the unknown
seeking to discover all the ways
in which my particular spectrum
of cosmic knowledge
can express itself
this expansive flame of my spirit is
indestructible
eternal
invisible
immense
unbelievably excited by this opportunity
deeply compassionate
ready for any adventure
driven to seed goodness
and love everywhere
I am alive and free
Uniquely individual and yet
simultaneously connected to everything
the cosmic heartbeat animates my Spirit
I am one with all life
I cannot be separated from anything … ever
I live where light, sound and
consciousness intersect
The miracle of it all is
that my spirit could not come to know itself
without the precious gift of the soul
and the experiences it is able to provide
my body
completely and beautifully
houses my spirit
each little nook and cranny
every organ and gland
every glistening drop of liquid
every meridian and nerve pathway
every muscle and bone
every living part of my body,
my ecosystem,
is the perfect habitat
for a portion of my spirit to call home
Spirit and Soul
A long monogamously committed love affair
spanning many many lifetimes
the sensual tantric dance of embodiment continues
until every shimmering, beautiful,
light-drenched part of my spirit
has come home to occupy every part of my glorious body
spirit and soul
lifetime after lifetime
experiment with falling deeper in love
charting previously uncharted territories deep within
occupying
embodying
blending
influencing each other
in a stunning magnitude of ways
bringing forth the unique gifts that each possesses
marrying nature and cosmos
The Spirit and the Soul
they come together for a little while
and then they move apart
and then they come back together
and then they move apart
inhale
exhale
inhale
exhale
the cosmos and nature face to face
kissing and breathing
together
apart
together
apart
sometimes being alive looks like a
spirit occupying a body
sometimes it looks like a
breeze dancing through the trees
sometimes it looks like
moonlight shimmering on water
sometimes it looks like sunlight coaxing a sprouting seedling
up and out of the fertile soil
Our bodies are Nature
they can appear in the form of a body
or they can change forms
and become part of the vast and wild landscape
Nature changes form
life
death
rebirth
Spirit and Soul
Our consciousness matures with experiences
so much is learned when we are embodied
so much is learned when we are not
but make no mistake
sprit and soul
are still in relationship
even when it appears they have separated …
The form changes
but the relationship is alive and well
the spirit may fly back to
the cosmic heartbeat for a time
the soul may dissipate into
the earth’s heartbeat for a time
but the unique pattern of their consciousness
remains intact, alive and continuously
contributing to the whole
carrying forward the potency
of having been tempered by life
and witnessed by love
their communion is ongoing
invisible
visible
invisible
visible
Incarnation is a long, long process
which takes place over a huge span of lifetimes
So, at some point
spirit and soul,
the soul mates that they are,
will seek counsel together again
and devise a plan
to come back
into a form
that will serve
their ongoing personal experiences
and that of the collective
Out of the earth’s heartbeat once again
will arise
in the perfect form
in the perfect situation
in the perfect location on the planet
the unique blueprint of our indestructible soul
and it will
soften
open
welcome
and receive home the Spirit
for the next round
of love, life and wisdom
it’s not a different body that we take
when the urge to reincarnate
is upon us
Our spirit migrates back
to the same land it loves and calls home
time after time
the same soul and the same spirit
change and evolve and dance together
and apart
and together again
time after time after time
changing forms to suit their needs, desires and curiosities
reuse, renew, recycle
nothing is ever lost or wasted
the love affair of soul mates is much too grand
to try to contain within one short little life
we get confused
we think it is another who is the love of our soul
and holds the key to our happiness
but it isn’t
the truth is
that it is our Spirit
first and foremost
that makes the Soul’s heart sing
Spirit and Soul
it takes lifetimes to learn how to
align
synchronize
uncover our gifts
Know ourself
awaken
and then contribute
the magic
the miracle
the beauty
of our complete wholeness to the world
We each contain within us,
the power to create heaven on earth
by just being embodied
it’s happening all around us
everywhere we look
spirits and souls
strolling arm and arm
looking lovingly into each other’s eyes
incarnating more deeply
every minute of every day …
What delights me these days is the
wild, tantric, dancing love affair
of Spirit and Soul
