Restless Silence, "You said it." (chuckle)
Recently I have been sifting through endless archives of physical photos, taken with real film and printed out. A whirl of future/past simultaneously appeared in black and white, sepia, shades of grey, and living color: family, friends, vacations, pet parades, and paintings flashed before my eyes all at once in a blur of light yet crystal clear.
The next day, I viewed a poem, a beacon of insight!
*Selfie by Jeffrey Danner
Life is a selfie in earthly disguise,
For a loving Divinity's sky-blue eyes.
I mean, "Here We Be," all radiant and free,
Right here where thick opaque earth seemed to be.
All that drama, that heavy, dimwitted sight
Are now nowhere to be found.
Except in memory, in stories time-bound,
Meant to occlude the Truth of the Light.
Did I take Life for granted, and drain it of Chi?
Only in my wildest imagineered swoons.
Brilliant, Shimmering, Source of the We,
Beyond this magical Tapestry of Forms.
Can I see you all in a big Selfie Smile,
Wherever I look, as long as it's in?
Three-sixty vision in all nine dimensions,
No ceiling, no flooring, no walleyed denying,
No limits all freedom all radiant hymn.
Reflections from Selfie:
* "....For a loving Divinity's sky-blue eyes,...."
The Blue Ray of Truth and Communication comes into mind.
* "....Except in memory, in stories time-bound...."
I felt photos, lives sifting through my hands in timely and timeless stories and visions, hopes and dreams, achievements, and celebrations.
* "....Beyond this magical Tapestry of Forms....,"
the visible and invisible fabrics we weave. What colors and patterns will we choose?
* "No ceiling, no flooring, no walleyed denying,"
Once I had a great meditation image of a home filled with large glass windows radiant with with bright white-gold sunlight. Golden blond wood flooring brushed the floors with solidity.
Better yet, the house had nothing in it! No furniture, no nothing...."I" was just passing through. "I" sat on the shiny floor, looked out the huge windows and felt deep peace. (smile)
I am my memories....still frame and motion, physical, digital, and beyond. "Now" I am writing and enjoying an electronic scrapbook.
* "No limits all freedom all radiant hymn"
