Today is the Day*

Today is the day I live for me.

Today is the day I speak with radical honesty.

Today is the day I trust my body that it has the natural inherent wisdom of knowing exactly what it's doing.

Today is the day I dance in joy and celebration.

Today is the day I forgive because there's no other way than this.

Today is the day I make art, just cause I can.

Today is the day I bare footed on the earth.

Today is the day I smile because I am this one.

Today is the day I open my eyes.

Today is the day I speak my truth.

Today is the day I immerse myself in the gentle arms of earth warmed water.

Today is the day I am creative.

Today is the day I lend a hand.

Today is the day I see sacred geometry in how everything is built.

Today is the day I am brave.

Today is the day I relax into the fact that I am just one of billions.

Today is the day I listen to the wisdom of the wind.

Today is the day I surthrive.

Today is the day I let go of judgment.

Today is the day I dance to my own private rhythm.

Today is the day I intentionally fill my lungs with life-sustaining oxygen and exhale with complete surrender.

Today is the day I give gratitude.

Today is the day I watch the other animals.

Today is the day I laugh with the playful clouds.

Today is the day I am my own best friend.

Today is the day I have enough.

Today is the day I improvise, off the fly, no matter the challenge.

Today is the day I sing my own, unique song.

Today is the day I do my best, knowing I'm the only one who can judge what my best is.

Today is the day I live for me and no one else.

Today is the day I find inspiration just being the thing that I am.

Today is the day nothing can get me down because I'm ready for whatever life has to bring.

Today is the day I'm slowly falling apart to become one with everything that is .

Today is the day I move towards the things I like and away from the things I don't.

Today is the day life is easy for me.

Today is the day I step into the flow of abundance.

Today is the day that I share.

Today is the day I want what's happening.

Today is the day I am here and now.

Today is the day!

 

Love,

Lady Rainbow, faerie*godmother
 

for my faerie godmother*

when i heard of you on fire
i imagined the tendrils of smoke 
releasing themselves 
to the sky
while unraveling the magic 
that lay within your
curls*

fly on

into the light*

 

*in memory of my faerie godmother. her words in my mind, her smile in my heart, her song in the air, her grace in the movement of the leaves. wherever i look, there she is*

The last time I laid eyes on you...

guilty as charged

guilty is the verdict
trapped in the box untrustable
until further notice
the fence is clearly stating what is mine is mine
not yours
and don't you dare wiggle around in your box 
black and white the only obvious colors to paint this picture
victim/perpetrator
judge/criminal
truth/lie
loser/winner
right/wrong
or, perhaps
:::another vantage point:::
of course always guilty and untrustable
because the human can never get away from being made of always going away 
decomposing before the eyes 
biological machine 
"me" disappears before the label is decided and box is made to put "me" in 
change is the only thing there has ever been to
trust
and yet,
there is comfort in the fact that we never can know what the thing we think we know is
completely blind to everything but "me" experiencing
isn't physically possible to see through another's eyes or walk in another's feet
no matter how hard the level of trying 
and somehow,
we are still just alive
to enjoy the full rainbow of color available
or,
the lens of black and white
choose.

with love,
Lady Rainbow*faerie godmother
