Lately I’ve been more inclined to communicate poetically. Opting for free verse speaking, spontaneous song, incantations and blessings over small talk and grammatically correct sentences. My heart speaks easily in this way, so I am letting her speak out and speak true.
In the spirit of all things poetic…here is a bit of free verse about home, heart magick, and creating altars. I hope you enjoy it…and drop me a line if you are inspired, I’d love to here about your unique magick making! We are all in this together.
ALTARING MAGICK
being myself
altar-ing my way home again
into my heart’s hearth
my truest truth
arted apart
far from the land
far from the solid home base
I yearn for
I dream of
no
not yet
it seems a gypsy woman has pulled me aside with a fluid stride
all flowing skirt and wild hair
guitar at the ready
oh, she can do the typical gypsy thing
but no
not this time…
She shows me…is this real?
yes!
she shows me how I am of this lineage
I am of this caravan of souls
not to be discarded as something I don’t prefer
rather a celebration of home
a celebration of a truth that speaks so loudly it is easy to miss
so simple and true
green glass and whiskey she sets down
“drink this” she says
it will help ease the sting
of letting go of those cherished notions
making way for resplendent potions
of power-full NOW
re-woven into tapestries brought in from future visions
made to fit
custom order your own reality
it is Up to you
it actually IS up to you
even when others tell you otherwise
free?!
yes!
free ANYWHERE
violets blooming out side the barred window of a dungeon
violets…of course
Be the violets
and be free!
so beautiful
so unafraid to be
so unafraid to shine
so unafraid of purple hues and dew
so much and so natural
so YOU too
so much
too much?!
nay…not enough
give way my dearest gypsy girl, let your truth spill out from you
on highest stilts you topple
but rooted to earth and you are unstoppable
stars are at your bidding
cause your heart is up to snuff
open and tender
not to be rebuffed!
So hold tight and hold steady
all is so well
nothing to it
and be well
this is your lineage
a long awaited path
be joyful
for all awaits you…YES!
