Nature inspired arts, music, poetry, dance & song

She opened her throat to Sing

Within the realms of kiss and tell

the maiden looked down deep into the heavenly well

*

She thought of times passed

to the awakening of her young bright heart

to her star kissed lovers that would depart

She opened her throat to sing....

Through the cracks and traces that loving had brought

she enfolded herself, she thought of nought

Her dreams were of youth, her spirit was bright

she knew a little more now, she offered her light

To the bird that sang, to the drum that roared

to the uplifting landscapes where moonlight poured

She opened her throat to sing....

To the dew dappled grass her feet grew firm

she would walk the light, she would walk her term

with her lantern held high, her eyes aglow

through valleys and pastures, through both high and low

To the bird that sang, to the drum that roared

to the uplifting landscapes where moonlight poured

She opened her throat to sing....

The sky was her own and the earthen loam

she lay on her back to feel at home

She was just a mere dot in this star struck plan

still she opened her throat to sing....

Through the lengths of years, through adventures, through tears

through the words that came and went

the maiden she soared, the nightingale roared

she opened her throat to sing....

To the bird that sang, to the drum that roared

to the uplifting landscapes where moonlight poured

She opened her throat to sing....

So beautiful, a wonderful poem

we are free

Multi Dimensional Reality

The world as you know it - all that you see, taste, feel and touch, comprises only about 5% of all of the stuff of the universe. The other 95% is what we have considered "nothing" or the "firmament"  or dark matter or the heavens or mystic Other Worlds. This 95% is multi-dimensional and consists of potential realities that may be perceived.

A single thought...a mere whisper, ...... barely upon a breeze that catches a spark... all is tinder before the firestorm... and yet.
ONLY that whisper
ONLY that thought
 the world is forever changed beyond the fears and dreams of cardboard men.
Freedom and change starts within:
It is encouraged by truth and courage of people who love
Built by the respect of true beings standing as one before each other.
Lets us cross every man made borders
without fear stare into eyes and hearts of all our brothers and sisters: within our words without shouting,or force to hold each to our truths; and let us without fear freely share what works...
