because the world has you in it
the sun is safe in heaven
my heart will not revert to ice-age
psyche can perform her intricate
photosynthesis and the dark
will not engulf me
you’re on my side
as sunshine supports the cause of light
greet me with intelligent heart
as sunlight etches lines around
the ten thousand things
and so your love
assures me an uncontested right
an un-ambivalent place on earth
when I forget you the
fogs close in
but the axis you burned in me
remembers your alchemy
you’re my sun still my gravitational pull you
hold the particles in orbit
around you I turn.
~Jeni Couzyn
our collective memory has an archetypal hold on us in our histories……how will you shine your light with those in your heart?
inquiry for today~ in each celebration, call in to your heart all those that are repressed and lost without hope……
The wounds in the world
are reflected within us.
Or- did those outer wounds
begin long ago
when we locked a part of ourselves
away?
Who can say just where
the reclamation of the world
begins?
~Robert Bly
