I’m sitting in the living room this morning, looking at the tree branches hanging,
reaching out to me from above the balcony.
Near the end of the tree’s longest branch, I see two little birds nesting.
They’re calling out to me, inviting me to greet them.
So I slowly walk to the balcony and say hi to them.
It’s been raining, and they’ve had to face storms these days…
but this morning, they’re still here, flying, talking, singing their song,
and the world listens.
P.S. I’m sending you an invitation to join our life’s dance.
Would you like to join me in the dance?
Will you come?
We can dance in our love and have fun.
Before our time here is done,
we can do everything
and leave nothing undone.
รักเกิด
เมื่อรักเกิดเธออยากตามรักไปทั่วทุกที่
แต่หนทางที่ก้าวเดินอาจไม่ได้คงมั่นเสมอไป
หากยอมรับในสิ่งที่อาจทำให้เธอเจ็บปวด
จากความเชื่อมั่นในสิ่งที่อาจทำให้เธอฝันสาย
แต่หัวใจที่มีรักนั้นทำให้เธอเฉิดฉาย
เช่นเดียวกับเขาที่แบกรับรักของเธอเอาไว้
รักเพื่อการเติบโตของตัวเธอเอง
รักเพื่อการแผ่ขยายเมื่อโดนตัดกิ่งก้านใบ
แต่เธอจะยิ้มและหัวเราะอย่างเต็มที่ที่สุด
และเธอจะร้องไห้ให้สุดเท่าที่เธอเสียใจ
ให้รู้ว่าไม่ใช่ครึ่งหรือเศษเสี้ยวในสิ่งที่เธอรัก
แต่ด้วยหัวใจที่เต็มเปี่ยมไปด้วยทุกสิ่งที่แท้จริง
… และหากใครถามเกี่ยวกับเรื่องราวแห่งรักนี้
ว่าเกิดอะไรขึ้นกับความรักและคนรักของเธอ
‘รักเกิด’ เธอตอบอย่างเข้าใจและภาคภูมิใจ
ในรักที่เธอได้ ‘เกิด’ จากความจริงแท้ที่งดงาม
First of May
First of May, you greet me again with open invitations:
~ to rest in the comfort of the heart I call home
~ to be nourished as I walk through the fields of my own beauty
~ to laugh fully as I roll down the hills of joy in simplicity
~ to flow with the changing waves of this unfolding life
~ to be fully present in stillness, embracing the solitude
~ to welcome the precious abundance of life and share it with the world that has gifted me …
Changes come with thunder and light,
before the rainstorm soothes the night.
The night is weeping.
I wake to the blessing of fresh drops,
flooding through the cracks of this breaking heart.
The heart is opening.
I’d like to send you an invitation
when I come to you with awareness and intention.
As I step closer and we meet our eyes,
please take your time in this space to arrive.
This invitation is to join our life dance,
through everything, as we allow the dance.
Show me you, all and whole,
that align with your truth and your sacred soul.
A Pause
It looks like the world is pausing for a moment, and I accept the invitation to truly see and just simply be.
There are thousands of flares of sunlight filtering through the tree leaves. There are voices riding the blowing wind, carrying whispers of blessings as they touch my skin. There is no movement of daily life in the scene of this empty street,
only light and shadow dancing on the concrete wall across the road. The movement of my chest as I breathe the air in, and the long release of my exhale. The touch of paper in my hand. The words linger in my gaze.
Love, if you want, you can sit here with me for a moment and take in this breath of beauty and solitude.
So I recall this pause of peace
when I look at the pretty face I admire.
When our eyes meet, I see your life dance;
in the stillness of yours, your soul shines.
My heart yearns for presence,
my life longs for beauty.
In a gaze, we see, we connect,
but only in the truth do we truly meet.
The days are nice, and the tea is sweet. I see there’s more beauty in everyday life, just as you wished for. On another beautiful day, I’ll cherish its flavors. And in another pause, I’d climb onto your lap and savor that peace for a glimpse of forever
The Sinking Sun
Looking at the sky,
I forget to breathe,
taking in the landscape
of the world before me.
As the sun lowers down,
touching the rim of the horizon
time halts, I pause,
and the world stands stunned still.
The circled sun sinks
passing the edge of infinity;
to where the sky touches the sea
I strive to catch the last;
Seconds slip away
as my senses ride out with the waves;
to where the sun disappears
beyond where my eyes can reach.
The wonder why my curious mind
follows behind those floating veils
yearning to touch the spaces
and all that lies beyond.
There, I linger longer
in the wonder of the unknown
tasting the mist of mysteries
yet to be known.
Rise to fall
where did I come from, and where am I going?
Between the beginning and ending
where am I existing?
Through the wonder of infinite time
will I keep wandering?
In this very finite life I have
am I truly living?
The sky’s scattered rays shine,
bringing life back to my view,
awakening me to a world bathed
in twilight.
As the breezy wind catches my breath,
I breathe in and out,
flowing into this very existence,
still and until.
Oh, the sinking sun,
so powerful in your being
arriving at me
with the beauty of your truth.
In between the beginning and the ending,
lies unfolding.
I can have ‘everything’,
but only in this very moment can I truly live.
Love (f-r-i-d-a-y)
love resides in Forgiveness,
Remarkable for its givingness,
Inspiring others to dance their lives,
and Delighting the world with light.
this Adorable heart, so pure,
Yearns for the kindness in yours.
