Re-minding

A 'side track' road off of 'Extraterrestrial Highway' running east/west through Nevada.

Re-minding

5/3/11

So much beauty, grace,

aliveness and joy exudes

from natural world, people

who are turned onto

the miracles, medicine signs

inundating sphere of consciousness,

this bubbling synapse cauldron

that 're-members', gets 're-awakened'

to wisdom in past

we recognize as essential,

dear to our hearts

though somehow sidetracked from,

in reality never left

just misplaced from underuse,

and when it's 're-activated'

becomes familiar old friend

not seen in awhile,

provoking 'journey song' questions

which update, 're-calibrate' knowledge,

understanding, about present condition

which leads toward future,

wholly new to explore

while carrying residual feelings

of goodness from youth,

those experiences most favorable

're-minding' our authentic inclinations.
