Poetry Fishing with Atum OKane ~ November 2009

Spent November with my first novel. I am proud to say I've completed the first draft.

I still had time for the odd poem  or two, so here are three poems inspired by a brilliant weekend with a brilliant Teacher.

Heart Tuning

Tune your heart
Ahhhhh~Mmmmm~

Tune your heart
drink the warm deliciousness
of the Divine
Tune your heart
the chalice of life
European dark chocolate full
body hot tub melting

Tune your heart
sing communion
Mmmmmm~Ahhhhh~
become hidden treasure
longing to be found
Ahhhhh~Mmmmmm~

Tune your heart
Mmmmmmm ~
Tune your smile
Ahhhhhhhh ~

Let your heart smile

Ziji Salaam

Hearts Prayer to the Soul

Heart
I forgot again
Ya fattah I'm coming home
Oh I've missed you so

Soul
Dear One I am here for you
the fire is burning
the pot is full and ready
know that you belong

Ziji Salaam


Your Promise to Life

Your soul is your
promise to life.
You don't have to
earn it, learn it,
practice or become it.

Your soul is your
promise to life.
It is the isness of you,
God godding you.
It's Her voice in the
rainbow of manifest creation.

Your soul is your
promise to life.
Your soul is your
promise to you.
Are you willing to risk
keeping your promises?
Are you willing to risk
the truth?
Are you willing to risk
Yes?

Ziji Salaam
