This planet we dwell on is an engima that I think we take for granted.  I believe we are waking up about this fact.  She is a mystery.  There seems to be some special place in this galaxy where somehow this planet out of 12 or so has water and life.  It is not a simple equation.  The facts and science have not completed the story.  This little writing is dedicated to this place in which we dwell and the mystery that lives within us.  Until we wake up more let us not take her for granted anymore.  

Blue Planet

more ocean than land
more soul than mind
more sand than rock
more sky than clouds

home


third planet from a star
on the outer edge of an arm
galaxy spirals onward far from the center
expanding out into emptiness.
an enigma you are


more energy than form
more mystery than science
more giving than receiving

Long at Sea - Poem about Life

Long at Sea

I left The Home so long ago
now that I would not recognize my own face.
I constructed the Boat of My Life
and I set out into the open sea
waving to all who knew that
the seas would give me everything I could handle
and everything I could not and yet they waved
and I set out in the open sea
in the Boat of My Life:
built from Soul
crafted from Heart
and with great innocence
I pushed off into the open sea
and have been away from Home so long now
that I would not recognized my own face
but I know that Home-
Home remembers me.
