A silent voice of kindness and love,

Like a beautiful bird kept in a cage,
Like a lion that wants to roar but is too afraid.
Like a fish that can no longer swim,
Like a roaming elephant that does not know where to begin.

Like a mother waiting to give birth,
Like god waiting for peace on earth.
Like being at a train station on a snowy day,
You wait around forever, then it never comes your way.

Every moment can be viewed as heaven or hell,
From the ego, or the heart you cast your spell.
One makes things magical, twinkly and light,
The other painful and heavy, an eternal fight.

What brings out your beauty from inside,
Those talents, your genius you so choose to hide.
A silent voice of kindness and love,
An internal surrender to the voice from above.

If I am honest, humble and true,
Provide service to others, the best I can do.
That will present my best self to this beautiful land,
and touch the heart of another by lending my hand.

Your life is a mirror

Studying the great laws one by one
Means my journey has really just begun
The universe works in the most beautiful way
To reunite us with all we have to say

When the pain seeps from every pore
When the body is weak, so incredibly sore
When the teardrop hangs deep in my soul
When I feel millions of miles from my greatest goal

Know that pain is the disharmony from the inside coming out
Those fears and impurities that constantly shout
Like an operation on the mind
It may feel harsh but it's incredibly kind

We were all built perfectly, strong and true
What we manifest comes down to your belief in you
Your life is a mirror of what's inside
Those impurities will never hide

Until each one has been shown the light of day
They will hang around and have their say
But if we truly believe in the abundance of this land
The gods will obey and lend a hand

Why does my heart continuously bleed?

Storm clouds rolling in
When does this freedom win
To smash the mold, uncover the seed
Why does my heart continuously bleed

Patience is the gift, the lesson is the truth
Honoring both will be of most use
You are exactly where you are meant to be
To learn the lessons to live harmoniously

With your most painful wound comes your greatest gift
The lesson if you take it that will give you the lift
To the higher realms of our existance
Choose to loose the resistance

Ground your feat firmly to the floor
Find your internal flame, your beautiful core
And let it speak to you kindly and embrace your your soul
As divinity glides through your spirit taking you swiftly to your goal.

Trying to hide

Stormy clouds rolling in,
Emotions raw, where do they begin.
The darkness has began to descend,
How do I turn to face it and make it my friend.

The switch has been flipped, the temperature raised,
Why do I react and feel so phased.
Where do I find the buddha deep deep inside,
He is ducking and diving and trying to hide.

I will catch him in the palm of my hand,
that naughty buddha he must understand.
Why does this witness inside of me tut,
As I pout and posture and start to strut.

A silent warrior you may choose to be,
But not when faced with tragedy.
That is when real warriors are brought to form,
In the wildest of winds during the harshest storm.

Deep into night

Falling embers, a burning flame
A voice inside whispering your name
Light and love and mystery
Surrounds my flame when my spirit is free

A candle burning ever so bright
Early morning and deep into the night
Gets cloudy when my energy is low
I loose my my inspirational light and inner glow

Quieting the mind and the heart
Sitting alone in the dark
Can be my bliss or my pain
Depends how I choose to play my game

Listening silently to the body is an honor to fulfil
Whatever is not working must be nurtured and allowed to heal
Surrendering to this place as tough as it may seem
Dispells the tension and restores your connection with the supreme

When you are off balance look inward once more
And choose your divinity which is humble and raw
And silently express gratitude for the gifts in this land
For every soul we must lend a hand

He will never leave our heart

I bow my head when they whisper his name
His legacy, his honor his eternal flame
Emanating warmth and love with every breath
He will never leave our hearts in life or death

His beauty and wisdom so profound to see
Which lives on every moment through his legacy
In the eyes of the children he has nurtured and grown
Who have always felt loved and never alone

And the five brothers, those beacons of light
That stayed close to Babajee in the darkness at night
Reflect the honor and courage of his beautiful soul
Fulfillng his eternal wish, his enduring goal

As generation after generation stand tall from his love


Even though he may be miles away
He brightens my smile every day

I want to be free

Clocks ticking I see the sun
My real story should have already begun
Heart open, dreams up High
Why is time just passing me by

Weak and lifeless heads in the shade
Questionning choices, paths taken and decisions made
Heavy head, heavy heart no time to just be
From these restrictive chains I want to be free

A land of softness and gentleness and harmony
Where every spirit can dance completely free
As things break our heart we open up more
Even if we come out bruised, broken and sore

Diamonds are made under extreme force
Go with your intuition then you will have no remorse
Your time comes closer as the intensity takes hold
It is up to you to choose your moment, strike out and be bold.
