SUNSLOVE (East Beach, Galveston Island, Texas; 6-22-2000)
the waves in this gulf
caress my body
more sensuously
than any lover
ever has
so why do i still feel
so very alone
at times here
at play
all by myself
with this intimate sea
the balance of warmth
wet and wind
seems to satisfy
my human skin
just enough
as the suns love
slowly cooks me by degrees
sautéing me in my senses
so joyously surrendered
to all this salt water
sun wind and sand
until i seem to have
no more defenses
as im suddenly
so effortlessly consumed
completely by this day
like so many
countless others
which have come and gone
before it
in this soul soothing
heart opened
re connective
light filled
healing way

Thank you Mourganna for your own innately deep, natural ability to so passionately & kindredly relate, in a 'beyond' mere vicarious way, to so many of my (mostly older)poems, which have arisen up from my own passionately intimate, innately spiritual, soul-deep connection's, overwhelming at times, drunken with awe & wonderment at whatever spontaneously attuned experience, no matter how quiet & subtle or movingly profound it may be, whenever I find myself surrendering 'wholly' (as in 'HOLY!') into almost any timeless, one-on-one, special moment with Nature, Life, our Sacred living, Mother Earth & Conscious Universe, within this Great, Ineffable Dance of Oneness with 'SOURCE' that we, all beings & all things are so clearly & ultimately (regardless of our individual & collective level of awareness & choices) still an inseparable part of!!!... (a simple yet profound, universal 'TRUTH', which no matter how far I may wander away from at times in my thoughts, words & actions, I can nonetheless never stray too far away from & so inspired references to it (as a central theme) have always kept appearing throughout much of my poetry over many decades now & no matter how redundant it has often times seemed & how frustrated I have become at times because of it's repeated, habitual resurfacing, I have always felt that I just had to accept it & allow it to re-express itself, because I know that without it's presence in my life & consciousness, I would truly be so very lost & my life & this crazy, consciously disconnected, perpetually destructive world I live in, would neither have nor hold any true meaning nor HOPE for me & others like me at all & so as a human being, this has always been my true spirituality & greatest Strength, which has helped me not only to endure & survive all else, but to find true joy, inner peace & deeper, richer meaning in my life & hopefully always shall?!!!...
