Audrey's Dream

Creation

I come spinning out of nothingness

To become such that dreams are made of

I am the Soul, the animating force of life

Compared to me the stars are but dots in the sky

I am in this world, but not of it

I create the universe with my mind

I am the thinker of the thoughts

I am the ghost in the machine

 

Re-Creation

I move from life to life each day

With nothing but dust in between

I come and go in the twinkling of an eye

Recreated endlessly till beyond forever

Life after death repeated each hour

Regluing the universe together each second

I am creating a better self each minute

Life is glowing in my reflected beauty

 

Stillness

Find the calm space between thoughts

Become alive by drifting off to sleep

Listen by becoming quieter than your breath

The world will explode inward upon you

Eavesdrop on the cosmic mind

Be still, and come to know God

In between stimulus and response

Lies my freedom to choose to be anything

 

Joy

Joy came with me out of creation

It is the hidden child in me lusting for life

Find beauty in every cell in your body

Experience God in a flower or a rainbow

Past and future are time-bound prisons

The present is the holy playground of life

Beyond right and wrong is an infinite field

Where we will meet to laugh and love

 

Love

The lover and the loved are one

The mirror of you gives birth to my growth

I will pet, cuddle, and lovingly caress

For my love transforms itself into healing

Loving is a wholeness that transcends mortality

To love is to know the truth of re-creation

To find a nurturing mind, body, spirit partner

Is more than sentiment; it is to feel eternity

 

Sensuality

The universe is a sensuous cradle of life

My desires are seeds in the fertile ground

Taste and texture, form and color

Aflame in a ceaselessly reborn composition

Life is a torrent down a steep mountain

It is a lightning flash across the cosmos

Shed the enslaving chains of judgment

Embrace the burning ember of the naked soul

 

Mastery

To discover self over self image

To find my spirit beyond my ego

Escape the hypnosis of social conditioning

Leap over the psychopathology of the average

Act by living out imagination, not memory

The separation between bondage and freedom

Be aware of the conditioning to be free of it

If I understand, then I will be understood

 

Peace

We hate only those who we are

Disease is born only in toxic thoughts

My tormentor today is myself

Left over from yesterday's decisions

Peace is found not by looking for it

But by never leaving my place of meditation

My soul sleeps in beams of warm light

Not to be disturbed by the nightmares of my day

 

Death

Toxins wreak havoc with our physical being

Yet they pale in comparison to the spiritual ones

Shed the need for approval, or death will win

Abandon fear, or life will slip from my grasp

Ideas are the harbingers of death and disease

As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he

My body is a place my memories call home

My memories create this home and destroy it

 

ReBirth

Time is an illusion

Spirit is more real than time

Life is not found in the study of dying bodies

We are more than recycled air, water, and earth

Move away from the whole idea of clocks

Things physical are but migratory birds

Progress is not more ticks closer to death

But getting closer to where you want to be

 

Eternal Spirit

Our bodies are but moments in time

Our thoughts and memories are eternal

Every breath of mine absorbs the universe

Which absorbs me in its infinate possibilities

Past, present, and future are one

Re-creation has bequeathed eternity to me

What's before the beginning?

What's after the end?
