Standing
I stretch upward
Adonai
reach
back and back
Adonai
fall earthward
El Rachum v’Chanun
and I know
beyond knowing—
this is only one episode
of my life
of life unending
and I recall that to fly
you have to run
as fast as you can
and then let go
of all your weight
run from all you know
that is how you let go
and I breathe
free

Thank you, Patty!
Freedom 🙂
Yes! *smile*
This is soooo mystical. i am so happy to learn the Hebrew words – Our Lord, merciful and gracious. This poem is so deep, i am not able to express how beautiful it is.
i am going to be away for a little bit – couple of weeks – and i will miss YOU! i tell my heart, that i can come back and eat lots and lots of treats at the same time – your poems. Take care, my beloved friend. Thank you for your sweet presence – in my life and this universe. 🙂
Your words touch my heart, sweet Krishnapriya, to know you understand, that we are joined in this Journey. I will miss you greatly during your absence, and look forward to your returning. Blessings and love to you as you make ready for Krishna’s birthday, may your heart be filled with light and joy, beloved friend!
Thank you for the blessing. I am so addicted to checking the internet and actually writing everyday now….that i am not sure how i am going to stay without it either. 🙂
I know what you mean. But remember, Love Divine is in your very midst, sweet friend. *smiling heart*
