The Angels remind us to take each storm as it comes, tossing us, blinding us, whirling us through its clutches until we don’t know which side is up, trusting that on the other side there is light, there is hope.

Daily Bliss – November 1
{POETIC HEALING} The Gifts of Dark and Light
At dawn
The sun seems not to play a role
In the fierce heat of the later day
In her dawning, she is light and free
Yet in her fullness
Her intensity sets fire to all she touches
Igniting passions to rise
And burn
And in the evening
The sun mercifully gives way to sister moon,
Her mystical softness hanging in the nighttime sky
Cooling down the tensions risen in the day
Turning passions into prayers
Heat into humble admiration
For the gifts of dark and light

A Light for the World
The seat of the soul lies buried deep;
It’s time to let it out,
Dig it up and share it with the world
The time for fear is past
This life is different,
It holds a power greater than any before
The power of change,
The power of love,
Stronger, more attainable than ever
The world may think us mad for claiming to see it,
The scorched earth before us belying all the senses
But we know it,
It’s in our bones, our DNA,
In the particles which create us from the inside out
We know it because it lives in us,
Breathes in us
It longs to be free of us,
To reside in the world as us
We can no longer ignore, in fear and distrust,
What we know in our bones to be true,
For it is in us, it IS us
And we are a light for the world

Master of Destiny
The will is deep
Yet the soul is deeper,
Guiding us from the innermost level
If we allow,
If we get out of our own way,
If we permit the true nature of our being
To be our compass in the dark,
Fumbling our way through with light ahead,
Not at the end of some tunnel
But from inside,
From our deepest places of knowing
Where all our answers reside,
Where will is broken open
So that the soul may take her rightful place
As master of our light, our love
Our destiny

Become the Way
Rising energy
Of the setting sun
Isn’t lost on heavy hearts,
The winds of change howling in our ears
Instead, the pressure lifts us up,
Rising to the peak of our existence
Where we see blue above the clouds,
Sun on the horizon
From another side of the world
This perspective gives us wings
To raise our fearful energy to grace,
Envelope our hearts in compassion
For a darkened world turned light
And lift our healing hearts into the sky,
Rising, rising to meet the sun
The light, merging and emerging,
Into night, into day
Become the way,
For a people led astray

Purging
What are you purging,
What need not be part of you anymore
That it so forcefully releases
Like fireworks in the night sky
Within the heart of your own being?
What pain can you let go,
What ancient past emerging
Asks not to be still buried
But rather to be free,
Out of the cave of your belly
And into the light to be atoned
And disseminated
Its particles scattering to the Universe
Becoming the fodder for your growth
Instead of caged rebellion,
Becoming the light
Which feeds your soul

Inner Space
In the great here and now
Everything’s changing
Everyone’s turning
Eyes to a new light
Some with hope and devastation
Some with the light of new life
Each fueled by the desire
For inner peace and love
The changing ones are leading
In the back doors of our minds
With carefully planted words and songs
Right up front in the conference halls
On the screens
In the churches
On the scenes
Yet pay attention to the quiet ones,
The ones who lead with gentleness and service
In the backdrop of the crowd
For Jesus even said, “Blessed are the meek”
And the meekest of us all
May possess the inner space
To hold the love that opens up
All our starving hearts

The Time When Light Won
If at first
You don’t reach the light
Try, try again,
For the light is not found fleeting,
Yet we are,
Our thoughts lost
In insincere and meandering ways,
Victims of the chaos that surrounds
With no preference to whom it takes asunder
In the throes of life
And so, we must not give up hope
Or lose ourselves to fear,
No matter how justified,
For these are the days of fortitude
And progress through transgression,
These are the days when we will recall
To our children’s children
The time when Light won

Daily Bliss -June 16
The Angels remind us that we must own our purpose, even if we don’t yet know what it is. We can’t stay on the sidelines, waiting for others to be the light. The world needs our leadership now; even quiet, humble leaders can and do make a difference through simple daily actions in the direction of the light.
