SILENT SPIDER

Silently spiders spin their fine strong webs to catch a meal.

When spiders wait they dream of spinning~

Swaying in the breeze in the fresh morning webs are magic~

Sparkling in the sun.

Busy spiders clever creatures.

Watch out. Aliwa!

Be kind to spiders and respect their webs,

Wayfarer, and have joy.

CUNNING SPIDER

Cunning cob-kar-webs and the clever spinner

Weaves a net of illusion ~

Strong and fine the web encloses the air

And traps the morning light.

Redback waits in the manjat tree for

Pinti-pinti the moth.

SERIES 2 # 15 AIRWORKS

High in the company of clouds

We walk sky paths

And leave no tracks.

Clouds only cast their shadows

On the Earth and answer

Prayers for rain.

Bless the Wayfarer.

RIPPLES Series three

Surging outwards from the source

No steps unheard

No voice in silence

No candles lost in darkness

Blessings wayfarer

 

Ripples spread out from the source

No sound in silence ~

No candles in the dark ~

Only feeling all there is

Blessing wayfarer.

 

Ripples vibrate outwards from the centre

To the edge of time and space

From the centre the energy

Waves outwards to the infinite …

Peace walk wayfarer.

FLAME OF LIFE

The power within the flame of life

Enlightens the dark passways.

 

Blessings on the gifts of fire ~

Warmth and heat and burning and bright.

We cannot lose the way in darkness

While we have light and fire.

Enabling all life

Yet not penetrating to the seas uttermost depths.

So light empowers and illuminates.

It is the light within

That is our guide, wayfarer.

 

Dream upon the colours of fire.

The element of immolation and consummation.

The distant element of sun that greets

Earth as she turns in time.

Bless fire for light and flame of joy.

THE RIVER

Swim with the flow ~

Against the stream only fish go.

Sit with the rock,

Bend with the reeds

Or dive onwards to the sea.

 

Runs the river of earth’s veins

And beside the flowing water

Life flourishes ~

Tread gently wayfarer

And seek the river

To the heart’s content.

FRIENDS

Consider friends as roses –

With the perfume of kind words.

Accept the thorns.

 

 

The heart is flower to dance

In the afternoon sunshine.

Be glad for Earth’s smiling blossoms.

 

 

Dream in peace and joy upon the rose

Singing in the air

And find the thorn protects the flower.

PEACE  *

Let the wings of Peace

Shelter the world

 

Peace may fill the heart

And rule the mind

And fill the soul

 

In the noise of war

Listen for the quiet song of Peace

 

Be strong and brave

For the flight is long

And the vigil kept to Dawn.

 

The work of peace is love in action.

Peace exists in the field of plenty ~

 

In abundance all creatures may be safe and free.

Walk to peace unladen but carrying gifts.

Fly to peace with a light within

 

And a willing hand of love,

Friendship, sharing and forgiving.
