\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Drawing on our own mind and senses and feelings, we can open the heart of space and enter the depth of time. What starts as an idea discloses its availability at the center of all that is. As the magnitude of the positive is amplified, the wholeness of experience steps into the light. Freely and easily, knowledge walks forward to greet us, inviting our participation with a gentle smile.<\/em>\u00e2\u20ac\u009d

MATIN<\/strong>
\n By Ken McKeon<\/p>\n

The shadow fall of a gable on the sidewalk,
\nThe roof topped by light,
\nThe wall, deeply thick and cold,<\/p>\n

The earth below, packed and as hard
\nAs the sunlight is soft on
\n The tubular pudgy caterpillar
\n As it wanders on by
\n To where the morning calls.<\/p>\n

My friend,
\n You climb into my eyes,
\n You waver aloft as you lean back
\n From your many footed steps,<\/p>\n

You are the easily fleshed out
\n Rounding lump I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d be today,<\/p>\n

The rub of morning air,
\n The spell of wings to come,
\n The float of colors,<\/p>\n

Edgy, papery, black eyed,
\n Brief as a light breeze,
\n Content as a longing realized,
\n And now the folded hours of prayer,<\/p>\n

All is so sudden,
\n I am as dumb as silence,
\n My breath stills,
\n My heart opens,
\n Releases now fully to the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
