by Shannondoah

We are One

I am One

I am Golden 

I am Love

I am Unity

I am Faith

I am your water

you are my air

drink from 

my chalice

as I breathe

you in

feel my heart

as 

I 

feel

yours

beyond bloodlines

flowing

remembering

thriving

see my Stars

feel my Light

listen to my Love

swim with me

into the

bright warmth

of

infinity

let us embrace

All our Heaven

So

by Mary Oliver

‘So Every Day’

So every day

I was surrounded by the beautiful crying forth

of the ideas of God,

one of which was you.

thunder

by Shannondoah

rolling thunder

blesses the earth

with 

lightning flashes

Awakening

the

Great 

Mystery

within

Beloved of 

my Beloveds

the one

Beloved

loving you 

feels

like

the witnessing

of

every

flower

bloom

being

by Rumi

Persia (Afghanistan)

Being is not what it seems,

nor non-being. The world’s

existence is not

in the world.

the One

by Shannondoah

divine 

Mother Father 

Creator 

rushes in,

river

like

flooding my

breath

when i pray

for you

every sense 

I have 

every cell,

all of spirit

tells me

you’re that one,

the one

all the stars

were singing

about it

telling me

stories

of my 

beloved

jewel

by Hafiz

Persia (Iran)

Wherever 

God lays His glance

life starts clapping.

The myriad

creatures grab their instruments

and join the song.

Whenever love makes itself known

against another

body.

The

jewel in the eye starts 

to

dance.

my heart opens

by Shannondoah

my heart opens

My heart 

     cracks open

like a dragon

     egg

never knowing

     how many doors

were closed

     and

how many windows

     were shut

My heart opens

     fully

     flooding me

with

     All There Is;

Love Divine

My heart opens

      wide and far,

beyond dimensions

      time and space

lighting it

      All Up

like a bright

      Star

My heart opens,

      Welcoming

me to my

      forever Home

and I witness

      my wings

Rise with

      glorious

evolution
