POETRY
Hot Sun and Heavy Rain
I am because we are
We’re the conscious universe
knowing what it is to be human,
and in every fleeting moment
there’s a wisdom
hidden in the silence
that guides our intuition,
a realization woven through
the intelligence bringing beauty
to the shape of flowers,
a realization that every human life
is a child of the universe,
every human life has value,
and every one of us
has something we can give,
a giving that transforms our life,
bringing us closer to the wisdom
always there inside us,
bringing us meaning.
We don’t have long to live our life,
but the conscious silence in our heart
lives forever, soft like rain
appearing briefly on a window,
a silent conscious whisper
always trying to heal our weary heart,
the eternal gifting us a star
to guide our thoughts,
its poetry of silence
an anchor in the endless change,
while every moment’s
woven into who we are
and who we all become.
Our intuitive ear
can hear the conscious silence
bringing meaning into now,
a poetry of realization
writing itself into the moment,
the gentle intelligence of the universe
breathing into our life,
bringing clarity and intuition,
nourishing our heart,
and while, in the soft, early morning rain,
echoes of the haunting cry of birds
are lost forever in the wind,
now emerges, endlessly renewed,
and every moment’s woven into
who we are
and who we all become.
