AROUND THE FIRE
When it’s cold
When storms are raging outside
Time to connect deeply
Time to be with our tribe
When the flowers blossom
When you’re enjoying high tide
Time to celebrate and dance
Time to be with our tribe
When you’re surrounded by fears
When your exhausted from tears
When you can’t sleep because of stress
And so many things feel like a mess
​
Remember we are not alone
We don’t have to do it all on our own
We’re in this together
It’s time to gather
Reconnect to the flow
Live the vibe
Time to share and let the fire grow
Time to be
with our tribe
THE RETURN
OF THE LIGHT
The warm rays of summer
The joy, the delight
‘We’ll never lose it out of sight.’
Said the knight
The burst of colour
in all the trees
Made many hearts sing
‘This is what we’ll always be remembering.’
Said the king
Then there was the grey, the tiredness
The darkness, the cold
‘Colour and delight?
Only a story once told?’
Said the weary and old
And when everything felt lost
Darkness everywhere
all fell apart
That’s when even brighter
the light came back
Through a crack
in the head
and the heart
‘It all plays a part.’
NO DISTRACTIONS
Silence
Standing still
​
Looking inside
Listening deeply
No distractions
Muddy water
It becomes clear
Wonderful stream of life
Flowing more freely
Silence
Standing still
Looking inside
Listening deeply
No distractions
Muddy water
It becomes clear
Resistance
Fear
Lost
Broken
Missed
Darkness
Pain
Destruction
Drown
Run
Freeze
No distractions
​
Suffer consciously
Surrender
Sink
Break
Into a million pieces
Of light
Loved
Opened
Complete brokenness
Complete wholeness
Connected
Floating in the water
No distractions
Slow progress
Deep healing
Every time a new layer
All the time the stream of life
WE ARE
A LITTLE TREE
‘This is my place’ said the little tree.‘
This is my space.
This is my life.
Here by myself I will thrive.’
​
Then came the storms in spring
The warm sunrays in summer
The rains in autumn
The cold winds in winter
​
The sun, the rain
The darkness, the light
All of the seasons helped the tree grow to be
There’s so much a part of me
realized the little tree
‘The forest that’s me.
We are all the trees I see.
The land, hills and lakes that’s me.
Together we are. ‘ said the little tree
​
Trees small, big, yellow, red or green
On the surface separate we may seem
But when you connect
and look deeply underneath
You’ll see we share so much more
than the ground under our feet
