Another Turning

9/22/09

Fall Equinox bodes change

as air smells shift

coolness has new quality

light continues to lower

leave earlier in evening,

and I smile anticipation

for the coming rain,

wind, tree limbs swaying,

putting on warm layers

having wood stove fires

while forced to accept,

be with, 'what is',

no matter the circumstances,

able to follow through

on dreams that arrived

during summer, spring musings,

from past year failures

harvesting the rich lessons

when feeling in deeply

to where Spirit leads,

entertaining original vital thought

laying groundwork for future

so dependent on 'now'

my abilities to co-create

with Source Energy forces

realizing evolution always happens

through another turning inside.

It's Done

4/13/09

The last vestiges are home

to be unloaded, put away

as closing final chapter,

only remnants of thought remain

memories in half lit hall

images of the past, good, bad,

what 'was' in reality, now transpired,

appropriately ending on Easter

which really catalyzes a beginning

when peering into my potential

a blank canvas of all possibility,

whatever I choose still a mystery

though certain stirrings remain,

that of committed love relationship,

new meaningful 'conciliation' business,

improvements of beauty on the land,

and home, with many fun creations,

plus interests in radio, art, motorcycles,

playing music, writing poems, stories,

being a positive vital effect in the world,

embodying mastery as a sacred human

and spiritual warrior of Celtic line

while ending 2nd twenty-eight years,

reborn as 'elder' in 3rd Saturn cycle

with will to embrace 'true' life purpose,

helping spark visions of noble future

doing my 'soul work' until it's done.
