Do we walk alone or in threes and fours Seeking ourselves within friends?
Do we seek a soulmate to hold and to be held. Keep the heart safe; Although feeling it might break?
Do we seek validation among the many, Do we seek and give, love and care.
I heard the story about a man
He walked for forty years in solitude, a hermit in the vastness of mountains and lakes in different countries, yet all the same, freedom and truth from the greatness around.
I would like to meet this man, hear his thoughts, Did he find wholeness and peace? Among mountains, lochs and lakes. Does it get lonesome at all?
Could it be that we are part of both? Craving solitude but also a friend. Someone who would walk with us through pain and joy.
Has it struck you at times, out in free open spaces how very loud the little songbirds sing how clear and distinct, from high trees near and far; Yet their dome is the sky and walls don’t exist.
How can their little bodies contain so much strength, beauty and joy. Yet, in between they work hard finding food; Building nests and teaching their young.
I wonder if we think to much whilst they simply live, rejoice in song and flight when work is done. Or in between.
Imagine humans bursting out in song, just like that without wondering if it is good enough, or worse If you are drunk.
It occurs to me that it would be wonderful to be drunk on joy and gratitude for being, here and now. Sing and dance with happiness, not being so correct.
My friends, I so wishyou could hear the sound of Dragonfly wings over the Fen, the whispering of Butterflies as they nectar seek. Would it be that you could share the humming silence; The wonder, the awe.
I spot a little sparrow on the ground, pecking in peace, he also is part of the serenity that surrounds. The stillness that whispers in the breeze the tranquility of crickets, dragonflies, butterflies, of us breathing quietly, not saying a thing.
I can feel the sun caress my skin, not burning, gently makes me feel as if glowing. Earth is giving up scents so heavenly, the richness of which I cannot describe. I wish you could smell it too.
The scent from earth, so generous flooding our senses.
