“Soul-fie, Not, Self-ie”

The day has arrived.

As sun rises,

it has

dawned upon you,

that Now,

is the Time,

to heed the warning.

Time,

to take your stand,

against

any woman or man,

who tries to

ride, roughshod,

over your

Super-Nature.

Oppose,

those,

who seek to

use, confuse, abuse,

your

Goodness.

Reject

the misappropriation

of your meekness…

through accusation,

of its weakness…

For this,

is

a,

blatant,

lie.

You,

are power,

under control.

In Divine defiance,

of anything,

their words seek

to imply.

So,

hold your ground.

Face forward,

to the Light…

…and,

in this position,

find your rest.

Select,

only, the best.

Stand,

poised,

as you pose,

to take a Soul-fie…

…and recognise,

within your Spirit,

how richly,

you are

Blessed.

“Know Your Worth”

 

Know your worth.

 

Know,

that with your birth,

came, increased value,

to the Earth.

 

Hear this Truth.

Hear, that you are valid.

Without you,

the World would just

be pallid.

 

Take this in.

You are sunshine,

in one,

cheeky, grin!

 

Get this,

into your system…

 

Without you,

sunsets,

would just be

distant memories..

 

But,

with you,

they are precious moments..

 

with you,

we will never

miss them.

“Come, Unity”

 

Come, Unity.

Let us commune,

as One.

Ride

the tempestuous waves

of Life,

in Fellowship.

Leaning,

upon the Everlasting,

fasting from the

false economy of

fear-stained living,

let us

learn, upwards.

Be the

Cadence of Kindness

and Giving,

that begets

acoustics of Caring,

phonetic footprints,

of Sharing,

left,

on the sand dunes

of memory….

…and

let us bond,

our Celestial tunes,

of

Spirit, Soul, Mind and Heart,

and bind together…

so that we never,

ever,

fall apart.

“Strength To Love”

 

Beyond reason,

your Love

sees me through every season.

Set apart,

from understanding,

your Truth lights my Heart,

as Life, is landing.

Separate,

from knowledge,

your Strength

seals my, struggling, Soul…

..as negativity tries to take control.

For,

in You,

I am,

Peaceful and Secure.

Therefore,

Eternally,

whole.

“Mirror, Mirror”

 

Not what you know,

but whom.

Sitting, in the middle

of your living-room,

you face

the doom and gloom,

with newfound strength.

For your Peace,

you go to lengths

which, before,

you would not dare.

Instead,

into the eyes

of fear and pain,

you, boldly, stare.

Realising,

that you will not

stay there.

Simply,

handle some

emotive business,

you had, quite, forgotten.

Ready,

to assess, into the night.

Not frightened to do so,

to put the past, to right.

But this is no pity-party.

You did not “r.s.v.p”

the invite!

This is looking back,

from the Present,

with 2020-insight.

Holding up the mirror

to reflect.

Taking down the books

of Truth and Wisdom

from the dusty, Life-shelf..

you acknowledge,

that you’ve won the battle

and the war..

So,

punch the air!

For

you’ve realigned,

with Spirit,

Heart,

Soul

and Self.

“One Giant Leap”

 

Somersaulting into day,

with obstacles,

mere, things of play,

that give you rise,

to jump ahead..

because

your confidence,

is supersized!

Embracing skating thin ice..

Navigating new routines,

with triple saltos,

of higher altitude.

Letting go of

what has been…

The result, of reaching out,

in optimism,

and stretching from

the top of your aura…

A multi-coloured prism,

the peak of your glow.

Sketching out

a brighter future,

with the permanent marker,

of your

iridescent energy flow.

You’re living life,

in the ascendancy…

at light-speed…

with authenticity,

your founding creed.

Scaling

mischievous mental mountains,

in single bounds.

Making paradigm shifts

of positivity…

Flying over them,

where, once,

you used to, laboriously,

climb.

For now you know

it is the time,

to stride,

rather than step

and

see your limitations break.

You have no doubt…

one, giant

leap of Faith,

is all it, really, takes.

“Intentional”

 

Once made,

the decision brings

profound Peace.

A profusion of placidity.

An ocean of release.

An intentional choice,

to authenticate Life

through collective

moments of “Now”.

The timeless Voice.

No longer, at the expense

of dreaming the Future.

Accepting

the Divine consequence

of proactive Faith,

determined Hope.

Ready for the best

of Destiny…

To,

once more,

answer the Call

of sharing

the Abundance of

Unconditional Love

and

Eternal Charity.

“Catharsis”

 

Suddenly,

the pressure

fell away.

Like scales,

discarded.

Like, stopping,

mid-sentence…

for no pur……… pose..

other, than,

you,

simply,

can.

The weight of expectation,

no more,

strained the mind..

Nor,

the waiting,

defined.

Rather,

transformed,

into

palpable anticipation.

Palpitations,

put to rest.

No test, to pass.

No quest, to prove.

Touchable transfiguration,

determines

the next move.

“Right-Side Up”

 

What if

we lived,

the right-side up?

If we could choose

the way to stop

and reverence,

with reference, to good?

If we refused

to stoke the fire,

but,

 put it out,

with something Higher?

Surely,

that’s what Life

is all about.

Be in “Who’s-Who”,

for being You,

without, external wrappings.

Let’s turn such things

the right-way up,

and

let go

of those trappings.

Together,

we can stop

the negativity that curdles,

Yes, we can run the race!

As “Team United”,

clear the hurdles.

Come on!

Let’s face this Life, head-on!

When

challenges come to town,

we’ll be like “Weebles”,

wobbling,

but we will not fall down!

…And,

what if, we could

have more help?

What if,

we weren’t alone?

And

hands would bear us up,

so that our feet

would not touch stone?

Could it be,

 such a Love is real,

that goes,

beyond perception?

Beyond the Earth,

5-sensory,

is an

endless connection?

Well,

in this waxing, waning world,

that glorifies so much,

the qualities of every thing,

above

the Human touch…

and places highest value

in accoutrements

and such…

…the fact

that there are those of us,

who rise up,

with one sound,

brings comfort,

for,

with extra help,

we’ll turn this World

right round.

“The Constant”

 

Once,

the crushed velvet sky,

was

deserted by stars.

No Venus, nor Mars,

to re-define Humanity.

The bristling air,

stood still….

unpolluted, by wasted noise.

The only Constant,

Energy,

surrounded by

the purity of sound….

and

the common ground,

rolled back,

to become

Nature’s

wondrous welcome mat.

On that day,

the stars became,

us.

Heaven’s brilliance,

condensed into

dust,

encased, in shapes,

embedded, with

smiles and emotions

and hopes and dreams,

exuded, through

one-of-a-kind

expressions,

in, limitless, styles.

Life,

in all fashions.

Fresh and unique,

with idiosyncracies,

always, on-fleek.

But,

with no sense of angst

and

no need to compete.

 Complete.

Mixed-media terra firma,

from the Right-Handed seat.

Landed,

in circles.

Sent,

to hold hands,

with the remnant

whom,

no-one else,

cared to understand.

Yes,

we are the Bodies,

from, far-flung, Eternities,

open,

to embrace

the past and modernity.

Shining,

as is our Divine heritage.

Giving,

through infinites and vestiges.

A Virtuous Cycle,

of heartfelt pledges..

Living,

the interpersonal Spirit…

One-Loving,

one another,

in our

Universal Human Village.
