Posted Essential Journey, Radical Wholeness
inEXPOSED by Louise Gallagher Exposed bare naked limbs leafless hanging on to memory of a branch fallen against wind-worn trunk standing stalwart against time and weather battering limbs and breaking boughs made fragile by the wind blowing relentless through your branches sheltering the sap within that flows more slowly now with each passing season. I lean against your body scars and ridges harsh against my cheek. I too am facing time’s relentless pull I whisper into the wrinkles etched upon your weathered skin. My body tells the same story of time passing of life lived sometimes walking with the wind sometimes against my limbs move, not as smoothly now, the bones more fragile able to break with one fall yet still I stand stalwart against time while inside the blood flows sluggish as I weather life’s journey leaving me exposed to each passing season.

inPerhaps ©2020 Louise Gallagher In a rush to make-meaning in all that has happened in all that has gone wrong or right in all that has been lost or gained I lose myself in the desperate struggle to not feel what I tell myself has been lost. Perhaps in my struggle to make it all make sense or have a purpose or fit into a box that only I can see I lose sight of all I cannot see. Perhaps, the meaning is in the experience. Perhaps, the making sense does not make sense. Perhaps, when I allow the purpose of everything to be the experience of everything without holding on to it all without fearing losing it all without judging it good or bad acceptable or unacceptable necessary or unnecessary I will find myself in that liminal space where all I have and all I am and all I know are nothing more than all I have to let go of. And, perhaps when I let go of naming all I have all I lost all I won all I know I will find myself in all I am. Perhaps then I will experience the all that I am as the most precious gift of all.

Let me move
as softly as a leaf falling
the song of life
singing my heart and soul
awake
my senses
enraptured
by the wild and glorious
beauty of this one
divinely orchestrated
planet travelling through space.
Let me dance
as wild as a leaf
spinning with the wind
in sacred communion
with all my senses
captivated
within the fullness
of life
moving through me
as I move with
all of life
and soften
without thought
into Wholeness.
