As one we walk this earth together
As one we sing to hear our song
As one we love her
As one we heal her
Her heartbeat with our own as one
As one we join with her our mother
As one we feel her sacred song
As one we touch her
As one we heal her
Her heartbeat with our own as one

My Cosmic Mother's Face
Fairy dream faces, like fresh flowers,
May bloom in the vase of my gaze for my soul to see;
But the Face that vanished behind space
Cannot be replaced by any of these..
There are faces of transcendent beauty,
Faces of exquisite charm, faces tender and true;
There are faces of sweetness and wisdom,
But there's none like the face of You..
There are faces tainted by fires of lust,
Faces the wise cannot fathom, faces a child cannot trust..
There are faces of beauty, steeped in glory through and through;
But O Cosmic Mother, they are dim beside You..
There's the violet, the lily, the lotus, the rose;
Fragrant flower-faces blooming under the snows;
There are faces of stars, and the moon and the sun..
But for me there's One Face evermore, only one..
After my search through aeons unnumbered,
The never-ceasing streamlets of my dreams
Have melted in Thy silver ocean-face,
Where smiling love forever softly gleams..
Countless silver rays of living beauties
Have melted into one transcendent grace –
The beauties of a million, million ages –
To make, at last, Thine omnipresent face..
Without Thy face, there is no light for me
In all the unplumbed depths of land or seal
Thy beauty-rays are rainbowed over all
Eternity, while planets rise and fall..
On the lips of laughter, on roses in the dawn,
It is Thy smile forever glowing there-
An immortelle of glory, heavenly sweet
With fragrance of unceasing, selfless prayer..
On the calm lake of my breathless bosom,
Where ripplets of desire no more
Play little games like children,
The glimmer of Thy face is spreading o'er..
In the cleansed mirror of my memory,
In the deep crystal pool that is my heart,
I see Thine omnipresence trapped for me-
Of my own self forevermore a part..
As I, awakening, pass through gates of light,
Thy wisdom-face is all my soul can see..
Faded, the pale pleasure-stars of dream skies,
In the omniscient light enfolding Thee..
Auroras, lights squeezed from shimmering hives of atoms,
Flashing feelings, burning vitalities, worlds of flame,
Dumb stones and speaking minds – all melted together
To form Thy one face and to spell Thy one name..
My vision, withdrawn from viewing pulsating centuries,
Throws its countless eyes within to search eternity;
And all I seek, O Cosmic Mother, all I crave forever,
Is the light of one face – the face of Thee!
- Paramahansa Yogananda

Free of possessiveness,
so ease of mind sweetens relationships.
Like the scent of a rose,
the untroubled spirit imparts a lasting fragrance.

~*~Moon Touched~*~
"In the still hours of night
As I drifted from dream to dream
Lost in a sparkling mist of unshed tears
Your enchanted caress awakened me
Your translucent glow that shimmers
Like the lost scale of a mermaid
And keeps me spellbound in your magic
My every thought focused on you
And your touch upon my heart
As you flood every chamber
With your gentle brilliance
Warming me in the chill of night
As I melt in the glow of your embrace"
By Loreleimist
NEW MOON
When I see the new moon,
It becomes me to lift mine eye,
It becomes me to bend my knee,
It becomes me to bow my head.
Giving thee praise, thou moon of guidance,
That I have seen thee again,
That I have seen the new moon,
The lovely leader of the way.
Many a one has passed beyond
In the time between the two moons,
Though I am still enjoying earth,
Thou moon on moons and of blessings.
~*~STARDUST~*~
We are of Stardust made
And have been here since the beginning
If there ever was one
We will be here til the end
If there ever is one
If ever there was a Creation
This is it
Right here, right now
And nothing is missing
Are we not full of wonder
Are we not wonderful
For we are of Stardust made
(c) Norfolke '97
LAYERS OF TIME
They drift like petals
down to the surface of earth,
no longer the surface now,
as layers press from above.
Each step carries us over hidden
cities and seas, forests of tree fern,
fangs of saber tooth tiger.
Someday shoes, claws, or hooves
will pass above our memories,
echoes like the sonar of dolphins
reaching our ashes, our dust.
Waves of living breath
will sift down through layered
petals, a sinuous trail
of air or water leading the way
as roots of prairie or sea plants
absorb our minerals,
lifting us back to the surface,
where we can feel the weight
of our own souls,
layered like petals,rising.

~*~The Tyger~*~
Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare seize the fire?
And what shoulder, and what art,
Could twist the sinews of thy heart,
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand? and what dread feet?
What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
When the stars threw down their spears,
And water'd heaven with their tears,
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye,
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?
Original text: William Blake,
Every part of this earth is sacred.
Every shining pine needle, every sandy shore,
every mist in the dark woods,
every clearing and humming insect is holy.
The rocky crest, the meadow,
the beasts and all the people,
all belong to the same family.
Teach your children that the earth is our mother.
Whatever befalls the earth befalls the children of the earth.
We are part of the earth, and the earth is a part of us.
The rivers are our brothers; they quench our thirst.
The perfumed flowers are our sisters.
The air is precious,for all of us share the same breath.
The wind that gave our grandparents breath also receives their last sigh.
The wind gave our children the spirit of life.
This we know, the earth does not belong to us.
We belong to the earth.
This we know, all things are connected.
Like the blood which unites one family,all things are connected.
Our God is the same God,whose compassion is equal for all.
For we did not weave the web of life.
We are merely a strand in it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.
Let us give thanks for the web and the circle that connects us.
~*~OAK TREE~*~
Lay my body 'neath an Oak tree.
Give my roots to Mother Earth
Take me back through my childhood
Let me see the beauty of rebirth
I have walked this path of mine in silence.
Bowed my head in awe of the Sun
Bathed naked in the light of Mother Moon...
Now I hear the voices of the wind
Was that whisper of time that set me free
I'm a living legacy to the Ancients
Feel their power rise in me
Ancient breezes cross the meadow blow
Bring the Goddesses voice to my ear
Songs of the Raven - Voice of the night
Soothe my mind - Quell my fright
Bring me strength written in stone
Cradle my soul - No longer alone
Pale moon light through leaves of Autumn
Sense the fragrance of rebirth
Softly calls me to the waters edge
To wade in the womb of her Earth Bound by blood...
Generations of life
Their Magic touches my soul in the night
Awakened to the call of far distant shores
I am weaving myself into the fabric once more
Time spun 'round me - warm cocoon
The loving arms of Mother Moon
I awaken and breathe in - There is life within
