The Freedom In the Setting Free

You know the reason and the cause

stored

therein your cells

and in a place you sometimes dwell

which is the past and now it’s time

to let your body become free

releasing tension naturally.

When you feel it building

that is when, to let it go and begin again

by finding the courage to surrender

release the emotions there within

repression never serves to bring

any wellness to yourself

and if you think it has all passed

you may find surprises break through at last

and all the tension in muscles and joints

rises high to rejoice

and all the pain in that moment

is not to last, it is heaven sent

so that you will finally see

the freedom in the setting free.

The body knows

when moving-on has not been clear

and old hurts have gone,

not disappeared.

The way of burying expression way below

is not a remedy to restore health

it is underneath the old

and rises high, truth be told

when there are triggers of times gone by

packed in your pockets

or muddy creeks that never flow

to clear the bundle of old loads.

Just work it through as it comes up

and life will bloom like a buttercup.

To live the peace we must release

every thing that no longer serves us,

every pain and emotional stress

let them go, then you will know

the peace and pleasure when

your living cells relax again.

The Answer Comes

We are going where? she said to him

as they were returning

to a questioning time they have had before

and asking where they will explore?

We continue on this sunny path

and when it’s cool we are by the hearth

home-fires burning

marshmallows toasting

and all the while

and all along

we will find ourselves and sing our song.

We have the music and the time

to waltz along, we’re doing fine

but if you think the beat’s too slow

then we will talk again and you let me know.

Well it is that my clock is ticking

and I know the song is singing,

the country ball is a’rocking

and the country hall closes just after midnight

so let’s pick up pace and whirl along

there is a Cinderella story

with music and most glorious lyrics

if we can dance in step

the life that comes will bring delight

and every day follows night.

Every answer comes in time

and every question may be asked

but every story doesn’t last

and every day there is a choice

and every opportunity

may bring rejoicing

or a way to choose again

so live the moments as they pass

as love is all that every lasts.

So the way ahead is what is there

and living life we come to share

all our hearts to sing the harmony

all our trust to set us free

all our love to simply be.

So yes the answer comes along

and yes the strength comes when we’re strong

and yes the joy is in the asking

and yes the love is everlasting.

Merrily go through each day

love your Self and love to say

all that comes I am grateful for

and I will go with you through that door.

So there we have the answer clear

every day fills a year

and every year it  is becoming clear

be yourself and let it be

wisdom, truth and clarity.

Fare Well

Very many 'say goodbye' in this world,
but very few
say "Goodbye"

Message in the storm,
whirlpools of flooding rain.
Will we meet again?
