My Heart

When I listen to my heart
I end up outside
running through fields of
wildflowers.
I sing out loud
not even worrying if I’m on key.

When I listen to my heart
I don’t care about getting dirty
I just dive into the bushes
and sit surrounded by green leaves and flowers.
And I smile,
a broad smile
that bubbles out from my chest.

When I listen to my heart
I can feel the aching sadness of the world.
The way the earth wonders why
we are living as we are.
I can feel the potential of
life lived reciprocally
giving more than we are taking.
Compassion overflows.
Desire for deep, deep connection


When I listen to my heart
I am you…are me.
I reach for your tender soul parts
and feel you touching mine.

When I listen to my heart
There is music and laughter and play,
I run wildly down the beach
leaving my clothes behind
and dive into the cold ocean water.

When I listen to my heart
It speaks to me of magic.
MY MAGIC
The magic of heart-based, relational living.

When I listen to my heart
I am calmed by its slow, rhythmic beating
within my chest
I breath deeper
and everything slows down.

When I listen to my heart
I don’t fret about what is right or wrong
or what other people think.
I trust my own knowing
My intuition
My magic.

When I listen to my heart
My wild girl comes out to play
and I dance beneath the stars
in the rain
on the warm sand...
I cannot contain
my overflowing joy
and gratitude
for gift of this body
the wonder of sensual life
on this blessed Earth

When I listen to my heart
There is no need to think.
Just being is enough
More than enough
