shhh ... be quiet, my Love
I want to tell you a story ...
do you remember this little jewel?
which was made of nothing
and everything
and it was so beautiful
do you remember
the sweet substance
that it was made of
its infinite emptiness
its unbearable everythingness
and sweetness
I know
It was here before our bodies existed
I know it will be here
after our bodies have died
We have lived our lives
looking in all directions
moving, walking, wondering,
loving, stumbling, falling, catching ourselves ...
being in this world
and suddenly
all stars aligned
from swirling
and dancing around
coming to stillness
time slowed down
time disappeared
space disappeared
silence
and we found ourselves
looking
quietly
in the same direction
seeing
from behind our eyes
looking right
into the center of this jewel
seeing
how infintely small
how infinitley vast
it was
and ... as we were looking at this
truth
together
our whole beings followed
our seeing ...
being completely
drawn into that place
finding ourselves
for one
infinite moment
meeting
right in the center
becoming one.
in that moment
we
lit up
burnt away
ashes
and
shimmering dust

Do you hear the birds singing
on this sweet and innocent
spring morning?
Everything
is shimmering.
