Changing tides The storms are over Waves are smooth Un-ceasing in happiness The breath of life Once again unhindered Flows freely through my lungs I shook off black tentacles Of spiritual death & found I’d never been alone So many helping hands Stretching out to me Like branches of a tree so dense It appears as one, luscious and vibrant Where to turn? I hear a sound, a voice, a whisper Carried on the wind Pointing the way through open doors I thought were sealed On the other side The light is brighter Colors more vibrant I glow in the smiles of angels all around me Another door and another A decision is called for Yet I relinquish all control Just for today I will follow the whispers The gentle voice inside me That is peace, bliss and serenity This one decision itself Takes the weight off me The fairies sing and dance around the old Oak In the clearing, in the wood There, where I buried my heart For safe-keeping I kneel at the roots of Grandmother Oak When she places my heart after so many years Back into my chest Her gentle roots stroke my cheek and hair Looking up in surprise I feel in deepest gratitude that she healed it Healed my heart And it is whole again My arms encircle her stem She bows down to envelop me In the embrace of her branches The tears flow freely The last ingredient of the magic spell Called “heart-mending” As I stand, butterflies dance around me And I sing and dance with them Then, behold An ocean breeze catches me Blows through my hair And carries me off I am a feather on the left wing of an eagle The feather feels light, yet so strong and beautiful Resilient and full of purpose As the wing moves Air pressure adjusts accordingly So much freedom Such joy and elation The feather unplugs And floats to earth Plunging into the ocean A dolphin slices the water The joy of being alive Radiating from every fibre of its being Muscles sleek and moving With a power unearthly The angel of water animals Leaps up into the air To make a lunge at the setting sun Another dive into the kingdom of mermaids A door of shells Time to move on Since I have risen My life is a series of miracles Unfolding before me Since I have let go of the control Everything has moved to accommodate me In perfect harmony In perfect perfection All is well Doors open at every turn New opportunities arise I could not have planned better myself I would not have thought of myself I have always loved surprises Now I crave them For I know – Every door I walk through Every step on the way Makes the colors more vibrant The tastes more delicious Growth more luscious And all joy more intense I am – ALIVE! ~ @Christina Sleeth 2014 Aug.21st 5:57 pm
