So Let Us Be

So Let Us Be

"god is she

god is he

god is you

god is me…

god is water

god is sun

god is creation

god is fun…

god is mystery

god is free

god is Love

god is infinity…

god is life

god is presence

god is death

god is essence…

I could go on

then you'd see

there's nothing god isn't

so let us be."

Open Lines

Open Lines

"When the lines ice up

words freeze before they fall

message sent, not received

communication squall.

Lines open and vibrating

intentions warmly spoken

hearts open to receive

connection remains unbroken."

"Found a poem in your pocket

a dance in my shoe

a prayer in your eyes

and Love in me and you."

Either Shore

Either Shore

"The rooster crossed the river

to get to the other side.

Certain of his destiny

he pushed other chickens by.

He struggled to reach the bank

forgot why he wanted more. 

It looked the same, the grass was as green,

saw peace available on either shore."

When We're Here

"I shall start over next year," 

said the monkey to the bear.

"There is no 'there,' to improve," 

said the bear, from its truth.

"Don't you want a better year?"

quizzed the monkey of his peer,

"Make resolutions to redo 

last years plans that fell through!" 

"All happened as it must,

without fear and without fuss,"

smiled the bear from his lair,

"It is what it is, when we're here."

The Beauty of Diversity

"Oh, the beauty of diversity,

a gift to this dimension.

No need to cause adversity,

in each kind, Love is mentioned."

Sail the Universe

Sail the Universe

© Judith Froemming 2014

"Oh, to live in the soft place

where awareness rolls in 

on a shimmering emerald wave;

the mist of collective unconscious wisdom

softens the rocky walls

of the incarnated beachhead

and expands the heart 

to sail the Universe."

Awareness' Arms

Awareness' Arms

© Judith Froemming 2014

"Me-thinks that maybe a sphinx

might give just one glimpse 

of what the Universe thinks

with a smile or a wink

reveal its wily high jinks

and fill in all the chinks

that send the mind to shrinks

call one back from the brink

share the missing link

and into Awareness' arms sink."

Waters of Being

Waters of Being

© Judith Froemming 2014

"Some think there's a price for presence

floating on the waters of being

moment by moment

raft of now.

As if 

every tree is not a guide

as if 

the suns warmth lacks Love

as if 

breathing deeply is not enough

as if 

every heart isn't pumping isness."

The Contortionist

The Contortionist

© Judith Froemming 2014

"The contortionist twisted

his mind all around

beliefs became thoughts

turned his world upside down.

Thoughts told the brain

what chemistry to cook

the belly rolled over

knees bent and shook.

He was sure his emotion

caused this presence infraction

'til awareness taught, thoughts

trigger chemical reactions."

Half a Heart

Half a Heart

© Judith Froemming 2014

"Half a moon

Half a heart

What won't be shared

keeps us apart.

Unspoken truth

Half a smile

In the same room

Becomes a mile.

Earth turns round

gifts full moon

Heart turns round

Love now blooms."

The Gamble

The Gamble

© Judith Froemming 2014

"Tossing the heart

path leads to where?

Rushing to the future

loaded with care.

Goals to be reached

dreams to be rich.

No breath in the moment

balance is ditched.

The gamble for more

pays little for peace.

The reward is here, now

presence, the increase."
