If You Have Ever...

Some days are magical.  Today I had the joy of being able to read and study spiritual ideas and concepts all day.  I found myself very connected to Source.  At one point the flow was so evident that whilst studying a section in Practitioner studies on money I had not even finished the section when an email with work from a client came into my inbox.  Sometimes we really are ready for instant manifestation - my advice is to not start thinking of elephants while in this state of consciousness though!  It's not so much trying to ignore the elephant in the room that really concerns me, than it is managing to breathe with the smell should it happen to poop!

At any rate I finished a poem I had been working on for a couple of days.  I cannot point to a specific part of my life or event that this poem relates to.  Rather, it is a statement of where I have been, where I am, and where I am going.  Within it is a Truth that resonates for me.  I hope it does for you too.

If You Have Ever

If you have ever seen beauty
you may rest assured my friend,
that behind perceived projection,
is a beginning, not an end.

If you have ever heard the wise,
let this Truth counsel your heart,
beneath the shoulders they stood upon,
is not an ending, but a start.

If you have ever felt sorrow,
know that source will never cease;
fuse compassion with your knowing;
let your heart bubble with peace.

If you have ever wondered why
you came to this living place,
you might marvel at how dust
can have conjured reason and faith.

If you ever have surpassed form
and let Divine nature unfold,
then truly you are beginning
to know a world beyond this world.
