Cover for "The Kundalini Poems"
Cover for "The Kundalini Poems: Reflections of Radiance and Joy"
Here is the cover for my new book, which will be up on Amazon and B&W as well as the wonderful publisher, Emergence Education Press, in a few days. I will let you know when it is available to purchase.
Here is the lead poem from the book:
Seekers
What you seek was seeking you.
Rumi
How is it
that when I was
looking for You,
You were seeking me also?
Silently You watched and waited.
Sometimes gave me
a brief glimpse
or taste
of who You were,
like a shy deer in the forest
that vanishes when
you turn to look.
And so I roamed,
looking here and there,
gazing at the hieroglyphs on trees
or peering into the throats of flowers for secret revelations,
listening to the waves
pounding the shore for messages,
examining books and stars,
seeking essence.
Finally I gave up my searching,
surrendered my deep desire
to stillness.
And then You gave me a kiss
that lasted forever.
