Tiredness flows down the limbs and joints,
draining and sucking
life’s vitality until raw bones emerge.
It is time to gather the bones
and read
the signs;
that can lead anywhere.
The journey has been long.
Now we must recognize,
and choose
our heart above everything.
That space
that I can truly call I.
Not the ego or the part that thinks it is me.
But that space, that emptiness
that says I.
How to move forward?
Listen.
When everything around crumbles,
what remains has always been there.
The source of creation
has always been beating away quietly
within our hearts.
Pause and listen to it sing.

Thank-you. Last Sunday ( still legally) we drove to the hills and lakes, lived for a day.
