  • "Love 7"
    Sacred Intentions Book

    Need
    Love is           forgiving
              Love is                 tender
                                           fierce
                                              kind
                                         Rage unleashed
                            and tenderness holding
                            forgetfulness
                                        forgiving
                                                    forgetfulness
                                        forgiving
                                                    earth Sky
                            Rice finches
                                      paradise finches
                                                  love is
                                      purposeful
                                                  Direct
                                      Respectful
                                Allowing other
                          to be to
                              see to live
                                      Their own
                                          way

    love is             honest
                forgiving
                   forgetting
                            love is
                      Lakes     Deep
                          Rivers     wide
                      Streams
            Old growth
              Simple smile
              23rd and 4th
                                Chances
                            Changes
                              Red yellow
                                Blanket
                            Split up
                                 The
                               Middle
                           Eros tears
                                apart
                           the un real
               The truth           is
                        Separated

    from convenient
            Illusion
                  love is 2
         1     over ocean
                knees on knowing
       on humble earth
    on       sight     white
       owl         wings
                    glowing
                           in the head
    lights
              Barely
                missing
              Barely
                accountable
              Barely showing
    a trace of
        gratitude
    love is knowing
    when to stop
        and start and
                have
                  and hold
    and young and
                  old
                  Tea
    old lilac trees
                  in wisdom
                  white Cloaked
                  and obscene
                  Not Beautiful
    But terrible
                  and oh so
    Terribly Beautiful
                  love is
       Oceanic
                  Seismic
       patient and
          over coming
          underwhelming
    Separating
    The seeds
                 from the chaff

    Separating god
                            from the cumulous
                                        and the stratosphere.
                clouds

       saw your
            Face and God
              was in it
            and now you
                are
              here.
            love is patience
           but never
            stoops to
                  appease

     Brilliance
            with Something
          less than
           its patient
        Divine gratifying
            looking Back
    So gratefully
        Self

    love is           wheat
        furrowed Brows
          Breath
         Alone
            mingles
          Together
          Making one other
              whole
          Making one other
              holy
    in the heart of god
    in the eye of god
    a perfectly shaped cloud,
                            nourished and nourishing
                           held together by the moisture and         the light.


New Life


If you ask a question
And hold it in your heart
The how
will reveal itself
a white globe of shell

will move from its underwater home
and stretch out
will enter the world
slowly, bringing what is sacred to the surface
persevering gently, preserving the way
the way is to hold sacred
the way is to listen to all things good

from this place comes the essential
the tenderness questions no one dares to ask
from this place comes
wonder
inspiration
and be aware
the strait path takes courage, and the crooked path awaits
so every day
I will pay attention
Every day
I will break open the dark water
Every day
I will honor what is beautiful and real
in each human being
And every moment
I will surrender the easy path,
Because I am
a disciple of the mysteries

May you be blessed in all ways.

In ceremony,
Char Sundust
