Create in Us

 

Yesterday I tried too hard

tried to be your perfect me:

good daughter, good wife, good Christian,

instead of allowing this mysterious unfolding

to bloom into who I’m meant to be.

 

Yesterday I joined in the forcing,

the competition, the right/wrong,

the pew filled message of us/them, sin/reward

allowing you to be the author of my song.

 

Come join me on a journey

out beyond the judging 

far beyond the black and white.

Venture, each one of us, on

this open canvas to Love.

 

Allow yourself, each one of us

to let your color flow as One;

without plan, without image,

allow that still voice to sing to you

as it sings its love songs to me,

knowing that we flow in harmonious color together.

 

The illuminating white light that guides us all

is the combination of all our colors

blended into One:

Create in me

Create in you

We create as one

In One.
