This is a poem written by our friend Jackie. It captures the heart of a journey...
thoughts?

Life is calling out
In a language I’ve never heard
Words and cadence
That frighten and excite me
That stir and entice me
Calling
To listen

Silent rhythm
Beating to be still
Ears that don’t hear
The usual
Eyes that don’t look
For what’s seen
Skin that feels
Unfelt
And disease free

The sky speaks no lies
And the truth of beauty
I can’t deny
Vastness and abundance
Drown pettiness
Until I die
And something better comes alive

Connecting with this
Naturally perfect
So forgotten
And overlooked
Grows in desire
Until life is not lived
Unless here
In the place of
This peace
With the silent rhythm
Life calling me out
With fear and trembling
I embrace.
