Cascade

Reflections of,
the Shining Sun
Sparkling diamonds
Glisten over the sea
Speaking to all,
“Come back to me.”
It pulls, it carries
It rises and falls,
Swelling 
Like our hearts
It always calls.
Holding our secrets,
Our memories made,
Teen dream summers
Along the ocean cascade.
Beating with our hearts
It always calls.
Lifting the soul
From the Earthly ground
Surrounds us 
we’re found.
It holds our history
Inhabits great mystery
As it mirrors 
the infinite quality
of the cosmos.

Then we feel it tugging at us like a small, lost child afraid to speak amidst all the commotion but we found it.  Curled in a ball under the blankets a heavy heart sinking instead of beating filling with grief and pain friends who have passed, only the diminishing past exists. My heart holds the weight of the world,  client stories of trauma,  hearing cries of children be hurt, billions of animals  being burned this world can be so cruel. There’s a pillage  of the Earth. To go on everyday it takes calcification to continue on despite it all  but it hardens turning the softest  flesh  to rock. On this day of...
