I release my treasure – v2

I release my treasure,
My sorrow, my worry,
That which I hold onto,
What I do not let go…
 
I let go of what I treasure,
That which I strive after,
I release my pain, my sorrow,
All that gets in the way…
 
I release my treasure,
Because everything changes,
We only have today,
This day, this moment…
 
I let go of my treasure,
The things that bind me,
Life is in the living,
Starting right now…

Everything changes – v2

Everything changes,
Nothing is static,
Entropy, movement,
Not standing in place…
 
All is an illusion,
An affect, a moment,
Everything changes,
Let go, and move on…
 
Everything changes,
Our treasure fleeting,
Our worries a myth,
Chains of our own making…
 
All is an illusion,
A hall of mirrors,
We have the power,
To start over again…

Wanderers – v3

We are wanderers, seekers,
mythical beings roaming, traveling,
journeying on this earth,
souls searching, striving,
rising to the heavenly realm,
spirits unbound by time or space…
 
We are water beings, light creatures,
immortal, spirits alive for eternity,
unbound by mortal flesh,
souls moving in dimensions,
traversing planes of existence,
to places we do not yet know…

Travelers

Travelers, wanderers,
mythical beings roaming,
journeying on the earth,
in the heavenly realm,
unbound by time or space…
 
Water beings, spirit creatures,
alive for eternity, immortal,
unbound by mortal flesh,
spirits moving in dimensions,
where we do not know…

Finding Balance – v4 #Zen #nature

Rhythm, spiritual energy,
finding balance, centering,
celestial alignment, Zen, presence,
slowly walking on this earth.
 
Raising my energy, my frequency,
being at one, at peace, equilibrium,
back and forth, right and left,
the universe, my essence, my walk
 
Harmony, balance. emotive, affecting,
in growing, striving, the eternal dance
between ying and yang, positive, negative,
equilibrium in my life on earth.
 
To a calm in walking, the movement,
Traveling from one pole of energy,
From one strand to another
Not resting in only one place.
 
Finding my center, balance, rising,
pausing in the middle, a constant,
striving, seeking, growing farther,
in my walk upon the earth.
 
Reaching for abundance, inspiration,
transforming my walk, my path, choices,
letting go, letting nature, Tao, the universe,
whisper, call to me, being still for Qi’s voice…

Finding balance – v2 #zen #balance

Spiritual energy,
Finding balance,
Celestial alignment,
Raising my vibration,
Being at one, at peace,
the universe, my walk
 
Harmony, balance.
In growing, the conflict,
Between ying and yang,
To a calm in the moving,
Traveling from one pole
From one to another…
 
Finding my center,
Pausing in the middle,
Transforming by walk,
Letting Tao, the universe
Whisper, calling to me,
Being still for its voice…
