Tiptoeing at Sunset

Tiptoeing at sunset, cataloguing

Life's odd placements and pitfalls

Attempting recall with each step

Fumbling through darkness fallen

Searching for unimpeded paths

Stepping lightly, retracting quickly

Each step met with jagged surprises
Nothing in place, nothing the same

Knowing it never shall be again

Listening at the Gate

Stifled...  Within and without

Opening my mouth to roar

Jumbled silence bursts out

So much to say, so much I feel

Inside, I push, I shove, I shout

Outside, I just kneel

Cogitations form communications

Breathed through space and time 

Demanding no vocal vibrations 

I sit stone-still and silently await

Your screaming soul whispering secrets

At this dimension's gate

Tai Chi In Zilker Park on 11/11/11

Fire within manifest

For all to witness

Breath, depth, silence

Hands ignite in healing

Sky-connected breath

Metaphysical winds whip

Flags of harmony, waving

In the winds of change

Depth, breath, silence

Healing touch, embodied

Embraced and administered

Anticipating life's gifts

Chi held, Chi delivered

Each in it's own time

Silence, depth, breath

Respite

We breathe in darkness daily

Often, not conscious of our 

Capacity for transmutation

In with darkness, out with light

In with darkness, out with light

In with darkness, out with light

We are the catalyst for light

We are love for the world

We are the change we want to see

In with darkness, out with light 

In with darkness, out with light

In with darkness, out with light

Fill this world with your light

You are the catalyst 

You have been waiting for

In with light, out with light

In with light, out with light

In with light, out with light
