ITS OUR WORLD TO RECLAIM AND RE-IMAGINE

© 2009 Howard McQueen

Yes indeed, it truly is our external world.

A bit messy, yes
Well, what else would you expect, with all the shenanigans and all the sufferin’ succotash going on.

Well, well, what to do about it?

Mmmmmmm. Lets start with my own inner world, where everything is created that shapes my outer world.

A bit messy, yes
Well, what else would you expect, with all the shenanigans and all the sufferin’ succotash going on.

Well, well, what to do about it?

Well, well, what to do about my own inner world?

Let it come to rest.
Aspects that won’t come to rest, these deserve illumination and caress.
A steady diet of unconditional love.
Ahhh. So many weeds of false beliefs.
These deserve uprooting,
but with the gentle ungloved hands of love.

It may be that the roots run deep,
so ever so gently,
dig down deep
and trace the roots,
clearing the soil
until you find
and clear away the tap root.

This gives you the pleasure to
fully extract the weed in its entirety,
then you can see its complete shape and form
and how it fed so deeply within your soil.
Love this extracted weed
and remember to place it on the compost heap,
then add your tears,
to keep the compost moist and fully activated.

Sandy, I would guess you to also be a gardener and tiller of the soil! Great to hear from you. Cheers - Howard
