Earth danced my Heart

Anahay yo way!

Earth Spring, singing me her song,
Sweet heresy to this heathen heart,
While dancing I am played along,
Her Urges gesticulate all my limbs!


Anahay YoHo AnAway

Sweat mingles with my longing tears,
Raising me up another sighing breath,
Long and gone all my ignorant fears,
In that beat moving my feet along.


Yo anahay yo way

Lovers dance this song with alert madness,
Natural movements giving feelings sway,
To and fro like childrens playing gladness,
Leaping free in rhythms sweet caress!


Anaway yo ho way!

Feeling this is all I can do ...

This tender agony of parting,
Soul seered by sweet lament,
Love is the goal of all other goals,
Longing is the place that I am sent.

Window of the invisible opens,
Heart waves move of your Grace,
I don't remember where I live,
When you are all of over the place.

The language I use is without words,
Even my breathe is moved by you,
That book of Love that you expose,
Feeling this, is all I can do.

Miseries are Divine blessings,
You make them gifts so pure,
Impressions lost to Loves devotion,
Of this my Heart is sure.

These eyes which clearly see,
Only see shadows, partial images, dust and ashes;
Mere reflections of You... I am blind!

These ears which soundly hear,
Only hear echoes, random noise, modulated vibrations;
Inharmonies of You... I am deaf!

This mouth that moves to speak,
Only talks nonsense, utters prattle, articulates nothing;
Spacious double-talk of You... I am dumb!

These senses cannot grasp the ineffable, nor embrace the infinite!
You are beyond the reason of mere understanding,
I am struck deaf, dumb and blind,
By Your enormity and mystery!
Yet, nonetheless, You are in this Heart carressed...

the bicycle prayer

Riding this gift, my Bike, up North Shore streets,
Then I am nearer to this prayer cascading in my Heart.
As if lungs and limbs finally dance to the Rhythm of that awe!

All roads remind me of you!
Like a paradigm shift,
A mathematical uncertainty,
or a fascination with the space between the houses.

Then I hang upside down,
My Heart soaring in the sky,
My mind immersed in deep seas,
And You showing me that immeasurable chasm between.

Now, even my falls are careful reminders,
That You are keeping me from even greater delusions,
Now my Heart is not different from your immutable Spirit,
but roils and expands in Your simple natural Mystery.

This Prayer becomes You at every turn of the wheel,
My breathing is deep, Heart beat a simple song,
While you unfold your awesome creations,
And I feel the Peace of Your Beauty.
