Hug Him All The Time

'When Irish eyes are smiling' -
with Rudi’s eyes so blue, as he
smiles everyone is smiling too,
'in the lilt of Irish laughter' – the
perfect description of his laughter,
all filled with sunshine and mischief,
I forget my former grief and pettiness,
I enjoy his happiness more than he
does himself, I want to hug him all
the time!

All About Hope

Cold, but not miserable,
alone, but not lonely, this
day is all about hope –
hoping you will come home
early

Hope you will have a wonderful
day, hope that the beauty and
love you showed me last night
will fill your being and keep you
safe

Hope that the feeling of delight
that bubbled in me when I heard
your voice, also bubbled in
you…

Soul Evolving, Mind Responding

Spirit communication –
spiritual transformation
beyond your wildest dreams

Learn to be free, says he,
don’t refuse new inspiration
widening boundaries

Freedom is no limitation
to knowledge, unlimited
truth and wisdom

Freedom is rejection of all
that heart and mind
revolt against

Freedom is discarding error
in the light of
new evidence

Then I Turn To You

I keep looking at dew drops
shining silver crystals in the
sun, the leaves edged with
silver explosions also, the
trees allowing the sun to
create lemon-bright leave-
forms through them; trying
to decide whether I would
like to be a crystal dew-dropp
or a sunbeam shining through
the trees – then I turn to you
and you kiss me, and I know –
I would rather be me, safe in
your arms with your tongue
in my mouth....

An Impossible Task

Faced with an impossible task –
collecting the right amount to save
the orphanage – I’ve held collection
boxes before, it was awful, I don’t do
it anymore – now to begin again, being
a beggar for a good cause, my heart is sore,
this is not something I can accomplish, walking
from door to door, standing at a shopping centre
with a collection board, feeling so bad I can’t smile
and beg nicely – if these poor orphans are dependent
on me, they’ll starve to death, that’s for sure…

Kiss You Again

Laughing, singing, dancing, enjoying life,
thanks for being so sweet and kind and
brilliant and shiny and inspiring, you are
a bright light unto me, thanks for contri-
buting to my passionate delight with life

Thanks for eternal moments of infinite
love, moments I relive in my life every
time I dance in the sun and sing with
the wind, pure light without spectral
lines, you became a godly being

In the prism of my mind, a pure golden
light of divine inspiration – come, let
me kiss you again…

The Warmth Of Your Approval

I believe in ideals only, I believe in
creating a vision then bringing it into
fruition, I believe in doting on you, in
being there when you need me, in
holding hands as we go shopping,
in hiding behind your back when I
feel embarrassed and shy, in looking
away when strangers accost me,
in keeping my smile for the reflection
in your eyes, in opening up to the
warmth of your approval, in giving
you what you need and in taking the
loving provisions with which you feed
the need in my soul for togetherness…

Abandon to Physical Sensation

And I swam and swam and dived
into the waves and rode them out
and tumbled about and became a
water sprite and rolled over and
over in the shallow water and ran
into the waves, splashing up a
wide new ball-room dress, beautiful
circles of diamond glitter in the sun,
diving into the cool water again and
changing into a dolphin, water my
natural medium, experiencing sensory
ecstasy, swimming fast and deep,
feeling the delicious fatigue, turning
over and becoming one with the foam,
bubbling with the wave crest, in total
abandon to physical sensation…

Respect his Freedom Afterwards

Reopening the argument, not good,
frustration my friend, I know respect
a precondition in life, but I feel like
stabbing Rudi with a knife, I don’t
care about other people’s opinion,
but his ideas are so important to me,
though he should be free to think and
feel as he chooses, just as I claim the
same thing for myself, but I just can’t
let go, I want him to agree with me, a
real fight with him, the fact that he wins
because of physical strength no con-
solation, one last attempt before settling
the question, I shall respect his freedom
afterwards, first fight for what I believe…

Happiest Person Alive

You are glowing, Louise, Juliette said,
yes you are, and why, I smiled because
the indelible memory of Rudi’s return
from his marine research trip will for-
ever be with me

I never knew that natural feelings and
animal instincts bring so much joy, I
never realized that the mere fact of our
existence and desires fulfilled bring so
much ecstasy

I thought I should achieve in order to
enjoy life and feel happy, now I discover
that doing what comes naturally is the
most wonderful feeling of fulfillment and
brings me more joy

Than anything I ever achieved or accomplished
the primitive urge to simply exist in comfort and
