January-March, 2005
E- motion, energy in motion
Is like the ocean
Unruly, untamed, fearful to behold.
To impress, I stress
And push down my feelings untold
What a mess!
When those feelings, like a ball
Pop up out control
To spoil ego’s plans
For an easy sail with you.
You’re unimpressed.I
feel blue, but true
To old ways, I learned to show
Anger to keep you at bay,
Thinking it safe that way.
Instead you don’t want to play.
I am lonely again, looking for love.
I believe I am separate from you
And from God. I’m a clod!
Old ways don’t work. I ask
For a better way. The mask
I let down. Amazing! No frown!
Love greets me in a loving sea
Ready to show me “into-me-see.”
In the ocean of Love
This ego I own is but foam
On a wave I can’t save
As it blends with the all.
So I will explore the Love that I am
And plunge to the ocean depths of my Being.
Now in stillness I am seeing
The Peace that I feel when I’m really
real. Forgiving you I am forgiving me –
A much happier way to be
As I rise to the surface of the ocean
I’m learning to surf my emotion
Embracing the Now, I let it all go.
I’ve unblocked the love I can now show.
I’ve learned it’s ok to grow and truly know
Though our waves seem separate above
We are one in the depths of the ocean.
We are Love! We are Love!”
