dialogue with effort

who am i without effort?
where do i hold on to,
when every step = 0?
who do i become?
when this is only a collection of nows?
where do i attach, 
when there is no horizontal plane?
who am i,
 when i accept this vertical body?
simply transmitting, heaven on earth.
past and future, only existing now. 
effortless existence.
as if nothing happened, as if nothing will happen.
alertness + effort, not to be confused.
within alertness hides a door,
to effortless space.
where life flows,
through spine.
like sunlight,
informing tree.
who stands upright.
weaving with the cosmic honey,
spreading out into all it is meant to be.
i am,
without effort. 

i see layers

a black bird
lands softly
on the branch
of the tree
the limbs of the heart of the earth
welcoming
visitors of the shadows

bumble bee buzzes blindly
towards the sweet scent
of skin and plants mingling
becoming one coat of bliss
drawing in
visitors of the flowers

water vibrates silently
repeating its rhythms
of desire to return home
to the oceans
to the songs of the whales
revealing
the steady flow of love

ground reaches down
kissing the waters with sweet stillness
holding rocks
holding the roots of giants
holding the bones of recent visitors
allowing
multiple truths to be
Brian Kirhagis

golden forest eye

Michaël Zancan
guardian of the stillness
from here comes full expression
here lives the enchanted embrace

jungle goddess, forest being
i am
a movement within the stillness

every sensation
held in this spacious fire
of this heart
of this breath
of this spine
double headed snake

dancing between
heaven and earth
stars and moss
light and dark

woven, in balance
a blanket
of all colors

resting, coating
this body and the body
we all share.

i am

Tina Maria Elena
i am ocean being
my heartbeat
voice of whales

i am tree being
my spine
weaver of underworld roots

i am cloud being
my skin
morphing with air

i am stone being
my bones
solidification of wisdom

i am flower being
my heart
magnet of golden honey

i am sun being
my eyes
illumination of truth

i am moon being 
my blood
red tides unseen

i am earth being
my existence
prayer of pleasure

her

retreat:  into your cells
they chose you.
choose them.
hold them
in a vision of love,
so that they expand
and you with 
them
to the back 
of a white winged bird
where you can 
rest 
and discover
who you are.
a child
of the brightest light
drifting
in a warm sea of love.
Hirō Isono
your body is her
she holds you
as hands meet, as bodies melt
floating through the woodlands
centuries ago

the space is her
the rhythm 
that your hand falls
to touch
the other

the home is her
on the back of 
a white winged bird
we float
timelessly in love

far away meeting

La Hija de Rappaccini, Santiago Caruso
how can i say
the point of honesty
extending from your heart
into mine

how can i say
the bliss 
in realizing
we both don't know

how can i say
the further i go
the clearer
i become

how can i say
the softest touch of intention
moves the mountains
in me

how can i say
love is beyond us
within us
through us
