Tears of joy...part one... Thursday, October 22, 2009

Did you know that tears are the spirit’s way of cleansing itself?

A time to celebrate, to rejoice in coming home. 

Tears are the fluid essence of the Divine and whenever I think of you they come forth from their secret closet to remind me of your love and the gentle way in which you touch me.

 

I am so overwhelmed by you when you greet me at sunrise, especially when accompanied by the loon,

And when I smell you as the tide drifts out it’s more than I can stand.

I find myself awaking early in the summer just to prepare the sacred chamber for your arrival, 

But there is no sweeter flow than when you show up dressed in your glorious finery of compassion. 

There is no moment that touches me deeper than this.

It is the ultimate forgiveness.

 

When you embrace me thus the tenderness comes rushing forth, bringing with it the warmth you’ve kindled in my heart. 

And all I want to do is to give in to you,

To say yes a thousand times,

Releasing every burden ever born. 

That’s when the tears of joy begin to flow.

That’s when I want to grab your hand and skip through the meadow until we’ve fallen exhausted

Upon the flowery carpet,

Embraced,

Entwined,

Dissolving within each others arms.

 

I’m hopelessly lost in love with you,

 

I just can’t help my self.
