There’s different types of crying. Some are a relief and a let-go and bring a sense of healing. Others are more desperate and hopeless. There is a wound that comes up in one area of my life that sees me in this place at times. Sometimes…

Glimmer, shimmer
Lying in wait.
Who knew what was there as the cars drove past.
Party in the sky,
As sunlight fills past full to festival,
and unbound sheafs tip their hats to tiny rounds

Compassionate seeing
Care for self and other
Vision and excitement
Breathing into the one-ness of all and lighting with it ...
