Floating

Floating here

You will find me without a care

Heart as light as a feather

Blown about by the breath of God

And yet as I sense the heavy weight

Of thousand human fears

For now

I just allow them

To fall so far away from me

In my heart

Which embraces the silence

I feel my spirit join with the birds

Gathering feathers for their nest

Seeking my soul’s true kin

Feeling my apartness no longer as a sin

Rather such a profound blessing

Carry me homeward

I say to the wind

Allow me just for now to be a soul

Tasting the sweet relief

Of peace

Freely floating

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.

  2. Lovely prose and I too understand your meaning. As a young girl I often wrote poetry about floating and I think it might have been a feeling I associated with being underwater. That sense of quiet, peace and disassociating from the hard taste of reality. Beautifully expressed. Thank you for sharing. Love Joni

    1. Yes, I used to write from a very young age too and yes some dissociation actually saves our soul. We need a relationship with the imaginal realm to help us make sense of suffering too and to provide a place of love and peace outside the trauma.
