Ready

Standing here 
I see the valley below
The hill behind me
And I wonder
How it came to be
That I climbed up this slope
And didn't even know
When you held my hand
And took over...
I'm ready to plunge
Straight down below 
Into the depth 
Into the hole
I'm ready to go 

I look up at the sky
And see the sun shinning
Never misses a day 
To tell me you're around
Never misses a morning
To spread your light 
Until the stars glitter with joy 
Bringing the sweet night 

I'm ready to to fly 
Into the height
And soar up above 
Feel your might 
I'm ready to soar 

I look in my heart
And see you inside 
I feel your sweet love
My spirit rejoice 
There's not another moment
Of loneliness now
No fear, no pain 
No sorrow around 

I'm ready to love 
Baba.. So ready to love 
Give myself to you
Until we become one 
I'm so ready to love
I'm Ready to love... again 



In Silence





In silence I stand 
With my head bowed
To receive your blessings 
To note your orders 
And to offer myself in forgiveness 

In silence I walk 
Following your will
With my heart open 
To your grace 
With no questions of where to this path will lead 

In silence I think
Of you 
And of your love - omnipresent 
Your face giving life to every cell in my being 
And I feel you within me

In silence I breathe 
My breath - your breath 
As I merge into you
And become nothing, and everything
All at once 

In Silence I seek you,
and find you...
For real things are only given and received - 
In silence 

I take Your Name

I let myself fall
Stumble, roll and hit the prickly shrubs 
I may bleed a little and it may hurt
And I take your name, 
Stand 
Clinch my eyes as I remove the thorns 
And I take your name 
And brush the dirt on my elbows and knees 
And I take your name 
And gently dab the blood 
That stays still, dry, cracked, stuck in the scratches 

I move on... 

I come to a bridge
And I look at it 
A mighty gush of water hitting the sharp rocks below 
The unsteady rope and wood luring me 
Into what could possibly be another adventure 
Or not?
Waiting - on the other side 
But what if I fall, yet again? 
The heart races as the mind calculates the danger 
The palms sweat as the heart pelts it's warning to me


Then I take your name 
And see you in each heart beat 
I see you waiting for me under 
To hold me when I trip
I see you waiting on the other side 
To hold my hand 
As you lead me 
Onward into my next journey 
And I take your name
With each breath - 
And I take a step forward...
