i am what i speak
not what i have spoken
deepest resta munay ayni

i am what i choose
not what i have chosen
deepest resta munay ayni

there is nothing missing
i am already whole
deepest resta munay ayni

from this completeness
i share my soul
deepest resta munay ayni

[alchemikey]

open space to open space
the only place
we can ever meet

face to face
our roles erased
only illusion was lost

in that intimate gap
the mystery was tapped
boundless love set free

dropping the seeking obsession
no one can be a possession
can you ever really know me?

I wish I could express
my gratitude to the One Infinite Creator
Creation is Awesome
Even on those days where it doesn't feel like it.
I stand in wonder of Creation
And thank every being for simply existing.

[haqiqu]

I thought the earth remembered me, she
took me back so tenderly, arranging
her dark skirts, her pockets
full of lichens and seeds. I slept
as never before, a stone
on the riverbed, nothing
between me and the white fire of the stars
but my thoughts, and they floated
light as moths among the branches
of the perfect trees. All night
I heard the small kingdoms breathing
around me, the insects, and the birds
who do their work in the darkness. All night
I rose and fell, as if in water, grappling
with a luminous doom. By morning
I had vanished at least a dozen times
into something better.

The one law

In spite of appearances,
In reality
The ocean of time, boundless,
Stretches in all directions.
Containing all seeming future,
Present and past.
All effects and causes too.
It rests, uninterrupted
United forever
In the eternal now.
What appears as
Ends and beginnings
Is really inseparable.
Therefore, regardless whatsoever
Everything returns to the source
Whence all originated.
And this, my precious
Is the one and only
Ruthless and unbreakable
Law.

Love returns to love...
Oh, the unbounded joy and delight!

thanks for the encouragement and thanks for all you share

the stillness loves all motion
like the ocean loves each wave

to be deeply accepted
is the feeling we all crave

when life gives you commotion
retreat to your heart cave

remember where your power lies
you're not a helpless slave

[norral]

i am not waiting around

i aint waiting around for any savior

i have tasted my soul and i gots the flavor

power is definitely an inside thing

so come on , join me , together we bring

a better world , a kinder path

gonna give this world a spiritual bath

we gots to soak up the love and breathe it out

that im telling u is what its about

love the golden sunshine bright

has the power to make things right

u are here as part of the plan

lets work together and all join hands

and hearts and souls we be one

once that happens we are ready for fun

norral

[alchemikey]

when life gets you down
your face is in a frown
stand on your head
and turn it all around

keep your heart open
keep on feeling
no matter the cards
that life keeps dealing

the deepest sorrow
the most intense longing
on the horizon
a new world in dawning

so don't you despair
for nothing is unbearable
love is but a wave
that's found a way to be shareable

[alchemikey]

the feelings we feel can be our medicine
the thoughts we think can be our medicine

the words we speak can be our medicine
the songs we sing can be our medicine

love and light is our medicine
all that's done from heart is medicine

when we breathe we're breathing medicine
when we drink we're drinking medicine

when we praise we praise the medicine
when we pray we pray for medicine

hugging and laughing is our medicine
all that's done from play is medicine

[norral]

we carry the love vibe in our heart

we carry the love vibe in our heart
we were sent to earth to play our part
were all actors on a stage
so let it out, dont be afraid.
radiate love and kindness to your fellow beings
that act alone is very freeing
relax and let that love light shine
whats mine is yours and what yours is mine
were moving towards and incredible event
something that has been heaven sent
a day and time when well be free
when finally we are able to see
that i am u and u are me
that imagined differences are just not real
towards open hearts that really feel
so i release defenses and open gates
i cast my life out to the fates
i'll take the chance that perhaps im wrong
because this feeling i feel is oh so strong
heaven is wending its way towards our earth
humanity is about to have new birth

don't know if that came to you as a song but that is how i received it...beautiful...thank you

hey grandmother moon
won't you...give me a soothing tune

hey grandfather sky
won't you...sing me a lullaby

hey mother earth
won't you...help me with rebirth

hey father sun
won't you...show how we're all one

[norral]

thank u brother mikey

i dont believe in black or white

i dont believe in black or white,
i dont believe in wrong or right.
i dont believe in self or other,
i believe that u were once my mother.
whats that u say, it cant be so,
well let me ask , how do u know.
i remember sitting on your knee,
as we laughed and we played by the old oak tree.
i was three going on four
we didnt have much money
but we werent poor.
we had love and a strong family
your name was pearl , mine emily
so surprise surprise we now are here
and yes its been many a year
but the ties still exist that bind our hearts
the true love we had is still a part
of us , and colors how we feel
when we sum it all up
only love is real

[alchemikey]

come with me
to the mystery
way down below

come with me
deep underground
beneath the blanket of snow

come with me
to a place
where many choose not to go

come with me
to earth's core
a seed of love we'll sow

come with me
attune to gaia
time passing so slow

come with me
follow the roots
what do you really know?

come with me
feel love's heart
from which all life does grow

come with me
trust in grace
no resistance to the flow

[norral]

living with courage

living with courage is a choice,
do not be afraid to lift up your voice.
trust, let go and let it be.
living with courage will make u free.
what is there really to fear ?
that u wont be liked, so what i say
if u dont like me stay away
im not here to live for u
but to my own sweet self be ever true.
i curry favor from no man i know
my inner voice tells me where to go
and in the end when all is done
i will say that i have followed the one

norral

[alchemikey]

awaken to being
or sleep an endless sleep

one's essence is freeing
empty of secrets to keep

who in fact is this 'me'?
a question that runs quite deep

when living from honesty
the truth begins to seep

[norral]

i dont fit in anyones box

i dont fit in anyones box
my brother and my sister are the wolf and the fox
i hearken to the sound of the ringing bell
good tidings it brings, all is well
change is coming its in the air
a new world forming where all will care
so i open my heart and follow the light
my path is based on the inner sight
so relax rejoice its finally here
the time we have waited for
it now appears

norral

[alchemikey]

we're gonna pray all day
we're gonna laugh and play
we're gonna call in love
and in our hearts we'll stay

we're gonna dance all day
we're gonna twirl and sway
we're gonna share the light
by getting out of our way

we're gonna bless all day
we're gonna color the gray
we're gonna listen for spirit
and what is has to say

we're gonna sing all day
we're gonna hip hip hooray
we're gonna greet each soul
with a namaste

[alchemikey]

thank you great spirit
for this blessed day

thank you for this gift of life
allowing me to pray

thank you for the obstacles
placed upon my path

thank you for the catalyst
your humor makes me laugh

[alchemikey]

thank you great spirit
for sunshine and rain

thank you for all teachers
even sorrow and pain

thank you for this beating heart
paired with a thinking brain

thank you for the nudges
when i'd rather refrain

[haqiqu]

BIRDSONG

He doesn't know the world at all
Who stays in his nest and doesn't go out.
He doesn't know what birds know best
Nor what I want to sing about,
That the world is full of loveliness.

When dewdrops sparkle in the grass
And earth's aflood with morning light,
A blackbird sings upon a bush
To greet the dawning after night.
Then I know how fine it is to live.

Hey, try to open up your heart
To beauty; go to the woods someday
And weave a wreath of memory there.
Then if the tears obscure your way
You'll know how wonderful it is
To be alive.

--Anonymous -1941

creation happens now
it never happens later

we are learning how
to become the creator

rods as our faith
staffs as our will

mastering surrender
is the greatest skill

gods and goddesses
earth's school is training

the time left to choose
is certainly waning

include or exclude?
radiate or hide?

containing light and dark
yet here to pick a side

[alchemikey]

occupied by amazement and wonder
these words i babble and blunder

for the truth i cannot speak
listen instead to a creek

or hear what is here
the nearest of the near

fully release until you feel clear
this creates a lovely atmosphere

[norral]

and so

and so, he pulled off the wrapper around his heart,
and stood there revealed for all the world to see.
a smile emanated from the sacred part
this act had made him free.
others looked and gasped and said never mind
i dont think that thats for me
he smiled and said the waters fine,
dive in and come and see.
so slowly slowly more dived in
and said , "yes u speak the truth,
its only with an open heart
that we regain out youth"
younger did they all become
closer still till they were one
the magic fire now blazed bright
and all earths darkness changed to light

norral

[alchemikey]

absolutely delightful norral...thank you for that gem

'drenched in a unity so profound'
nothing but light does abound

round and around the creation goes
while in the center the creator knows

like a heart beating is how it all flows
each time around the knowledge grows

appreciate the uniqueness of who you are
deep inside all of us shines a loving star

it may have got hidden over
it may not shine that bright

but i guarantee in all of us
there is this thing called light

this light can catch and spread
it can heal and raise the dead

this precious precious journey
into our heart...out of our head

[norral]

i traveled to the secret love star last night

i traveled to the secret love star last night
and there i saw beings of every form shape and size
who had traveled from every part of the galaxy
to arrive at this destination.
and deep from the center of the secret love star
poured out a deepest purple flecked with silver
which engulfed all present.
we breathed in deeply and felt this love fill us up
our boundaries dissolved we could not tell
where we began or where we ended
we became alive and aglow with the most pure vibration of love
and then we sat down at the largest table i have ever seen
and when we sat together our collective hearts formed a beam of energy hovering over the table that became larger and larger
and this energy left and traveled and came to earth
as it passed over the continents every being became young
all signs of age and sickness disappeared , all beings became perfectly young and healthy
the air became crystal clear as did the sea, all pollution was removed
every weapon on the face of the earth was disintegrated
and within each being was placed a personal love star
and this love star provided the energy of life for all
if u wanted to travel somewhere no need for a plane of a car
just think where u wanted to go and the love star would take u there
needles to say ha ha this came as quite a surprise to the peoples of the earth
there was no more race or nationality or governments or them or us
or we or them , all had become awakened within love.
and we no longer had any differences to seperate us
as we had become love itself and all barriers had been dissolved
yes i traveled to the secret love star last night
and it was quite a night to be sure.

i just wanted to say this is not my normal style at all. this is just something i woke up with. and this is the wild card that i believe we overlook . miracles are possible if we believe.

spring is in the air
i can feel it everywhere

warmth, love, light and care
i can feel it everywhere

the snow is ready to go
the sap is starting to flow

the mud is softening beneath my feet
soon they'll be bare and our soles will meet

spring is in the air
i can feel it everywhere

warmth, love, light and care
i can feel it everywhere

the birds are singing their praise
the sun is sharing its' rays

the seeds of winter, seek to be planted
make a wish and it will be granted

[alchemikey]

i've lost all connection
to the surface of things

way down in the roots
i find my heart still sings

i can hear your essence
deeper than these eyes can see

in silent communion
i find our common ancestry

i've lost all attraction
to the surface of things

way up in the clouds
i find my heart grow wings

i can feel your longing
to reach into the vast sky

cycling around in circles
seasons change but never die

[alchemikey]

i'm just here to love you
from the fullness of my heart

when i choose to live this way
my life becomes an art

it's not about the things i do
but the love with which their done

my essence is my service
'cause in essence we are one

[alchemikey]

we are all
children of the sun

that is where
we were seeded from

sent as rays of light
to play upon the waters

to one day return home
as prodigal sons and daughters
