The hearts danced On the window while the light rose up Leaving Me capable Of holding These wild winds again

bloom
last night the whole yard was baked with moonlight and clouds. I looked up at the bigness and opened my heart. the moon being as kind as she could be shone brighter. She held me tight and gave me dreams that moved into the morning like a lullaby. She took all my laments and promised them to the sun. The […]

You don’t have to resist.Let the goodness flow to you. You don’t have to make a way The way is straight ahead. Trust your steps are guided. What am I resisting and why?Pain, growth?All the above?

Who am I but soil and soul trying to reconcile and remember my own thoughts? Somehow. I am here weeding and praying over this land, this body. Asking for help […]
