Psalm Light

A deeply centered Light
filtered and broken
enlivens all creation..
we need assistance
for our recognition..
humility to imagine:
multitude reflections
sensing one pattern
of center and mirrors
an awareness leap
fear births awe...

for Hilda and
her posting of
Psalm 67

Mr. Dawkins' vessel

life can overwhelm
our brains soon stall
overloaded with that
confusion out there..
changes and edges
these matter most..
in natural selection
differences do rule..
 patterns repeating 
must be discarded
same old sameness..
survival succeeds
his elegant view..

thus a long chapter
bringing this day..
has time now arrived
to finally meet those
 patterns of old..?
patterns most humble
enfolding of change..
 fiercely holistic and
formed as images
in many dimensions..
their sharp message:
sorry.. without us
nothing would be...

this is based on
Richard Dawkins,
"Redundancy Reduction
and Pattern Recognition"
easily found on Google..
I hope my reading
is reasonably accurate..
if not, apologies to Mr. D..!





I am Bette..

and I am fine..
she speaks first
this her report
each Monday noon
when our group
Soup Salad Scripture
convenes to her
weekly de-light..
Visiting her home we
met precision and grace..
a white decor reflects
 her sun-lightened hair..
in her elevated space
we imagined the Peak
 closer than before..
her walls portray
her art fascination
a loving life partner
all in this Moment
times in Alaska
and the wide world..
with all this
she served us wine..
we know now
she is Bette
and she is fine...





The Inner Light.
"Expansion" by Paige Bradley
Paige Bradley has created one of the most striking sculptures of our time. This masterpiece, called “Expansion”, is a naked beautiful woman, whose body is split and emits light.
504

“You exist in time, but you belong to eternity. You are a penetration of eternity into the world of time. You are deathless, living in a body of death. Your consciousness knows no death, no birth, it is only your body that is born and dies, but you are not aware of your consciousness. You are not conscious of your Consciousness, and that is the whole art of Meditation; becoming conscious of Consciousness itself.” Osho

Approaching loss

finding this morning
awareness of loss
the obituary entry
this physical sense..
those lesser deaths
portrayed as loss
fill electronic news..
Approaching loss
Or loss approaching..?
loss seems woven
 into our fabric..
our morning Nutrition:
approaching is longing
to locate disclosures
of buried light
under the garments
 we wear...

a STARBUCKS revisit

Over the centuries
a transforming logo
promoting and shaping
our dance with coffee..
a seafaring birth
fifteenth century siren
exposed and sensuous
twin-tailed mermaid..
her seductive history
reached to Seattle
with nautical theme..
one lasting effect
many centuries told
with modified modesty
her crown remains..
this enduring connection
upper and lower
crown and creation
transcends the coffee..
the logo reminds us:
 senses through time
stimulate and attract
crowned light above...
