The body bows to Shiva,
The heart loves Shiva-Shakti,
The mind comprehends paramashiva,
And awakening is recognizing,
The bliss of the Self!

promised spring rains
awaken the life within
almond tree blossoms

Shiva - Shakti

O Chit Shakti
I am your loving child
Without you I would not exist.
Appear before me
As a loving parent
To nurture the seed
Of efflugent light.
To please Lord Shiva
As he dances in ecstasy
With the realization -
I AM THAT I AM

In winter,
The murmuration of  birds,
Before roosting.

natural awakening

the golden lotus
opens of its own accord
with light from heaven

Autumn

Walking outdoors
In the language of silence
A windbell chimes.
