Pausing to hear the wind

This is a short episode to finish the series. It starts with an opportunity for a beautiful pause and concludes by listening to the songs on the wind.

Rick Rubin’s words from The Creative Act: A Way of Being – “The work reveals itself as you go.” – has been my companion text for how Be More Poet is evolving… And I am grateful to you for joining me here.

BEAUTIFUL PAUSE

A most beautiful pause,  

pregnant with possibility  

tethered to the eternal now  

and the stretchiness of time,  

in ripples of fresh stillness  

and the breath of life.  

From A most beautiful pause

SONGS ON THE WIND

Carrying the song  

of the wind,  

not with words,  

but in breath    

open to aliveness, 

responsive to movement, 

and lifted in its presence. 

Will we join the flow 

in the rhythm of life, 

and find our voice 

in the songs that 

others long to hear?  

From Hearing songs on the wind

My hope is that these words enable you to pause, see yourself and your world differently and discover more of the song – the story – that you are here to sing.

Thanks for listening
