WIND MOUNTAIN MORNING  ('A CHEWENA SONG of ASSIMILATION')   7-4-2000, on Wind Mountain, near Tres Piedras, New Mexico

     
sunrise reveals      
pink bands of clouds      
stretching out above      
wind mountain      
out over this vast      
glorious horizon      
a continuous flow      
of far off      
mountain lines      
that rise and fall      
in distant shadows      
of blue gray slopes      
silent song      
of earths great circle      
surrounds me here      
awakening      
all across      
throughout      
this vibrant sea      
of boundless land      
in gently rolling hills      
and plains      
of cactus  rock      
and sagebrush calling      
standing still  
motionless here      
outside in the even  
greater    
more expansive  
natural  open  
majestic stillness  
and primal calmness  
of this  
peaceful morning  
with several other distant  
though visibly smaller  
in height and size  
long expired  
volcanic cinder cones  
scattered all about  
many miles apart    
in several different directions  
away from    
my location here  
seemingly at the  
very center  
of this vast  
wide open  
stunningly beautiful  
pristine  peaceful  
natural landscape  
which fell asleep      
so long ago      
yet which each  
all still appear  
and seem to be      
so wondrously dreaming  
this entire magical  
living world  
and myself as well    
into being  
here and everywhere  
spread out all
around me here
out all across  
beyond as well  
this untouched  
ancient  
truly wondrous and magical  
scenic  south western    
wild terrain      
where densely forested  
pinon covered hill sides  
and more barren  
wind blown  
lava stone hill tops  
constantly brush      
and reciprocally  
tickle the sky  
in flowingly delicate  
tender return  
with every gentle  
passing breeze  
with every powerful  
raging  violent  
lightning storm  
of great spirits      
every loving breath  
no matter what form  
it may come in  
or take    
in its magnificently  
radiant  
sublimely illumined dances  
elegant grand ballets  
ever changing  
ever morphing  
breathtaking displays  
of earth      
of clouds      
and sun lights  
resplendent collusions  
as they slowly  
spread out overhead  
across the lucidly seamless  
sensitive  dome like  
crystalline lense  
of continuous skies above  
in graceful  poetic flight  
to fill and paint  
them all  
relentlessly    
day and night  
forever connecting us all  
and all of life  
down here  
upon our sacred  living  
conscious  
mother earth  
inseparably to and with  
the conscious  living  
heavens above  
as well as to  
all the other infinite  
unknown worlds  
universes  realms  
and dimensions beyond      
while back down here  
on earth below    
centered where i am      
spirit softly speaks  
to  into  
and throughout my being  
as i stand      
in utter child like  
wonderment and awe      
of and at      
what all i see      
both before      
and everywhere      
around me      
as i listen      
to the constant      
ever ringing spell      
of every atom      
every molecule      
of every living cells      
sweet interconnected      
vibrational songs      
high frequency tone      
the sacred singing      
great  cosmic aummmm      
of the universes      
harmoniously unified      
infinite unfolding      
resonating throughout me  
throughout everything  
that is    
wherein i sense      
experience  feel  
realize and know  
more profoundly  
more intimately  
more clearly than ever  
before  
now here once again  
in my eternal spirits  
presently manifested  
temporal  physical form  
that in this  
newly requickened  
refreshed  
epiphanic  
self realization  
wherein i  
more fully recognize  
see  feel  
hear and know  
outside and within  
all creation      
as one with me  
as one with all  
as all one  
infinite  eternal  
divine  inseparable whole  
in which i also  
just now  
further sensed  
felt  realized  
and now  
more deeply know  
even down here  
in my    
consciously awakened  
eternal  
sacred beings  
presently manifested  
only temporal  
physical form  
i just as fully  
realize and know      
it is simply  
another  
timelessly timeless  
benevolent sign  
and profound reminder  
of divine ineffable creations  
highest  eternal gift  
of divine  
ineffable love  
for me  
in my renewed realization  
of my immutable  
eternal  
oneness awareness  
as one  
of and with  
the inseparable  
oneness  
of all  
that  
is  
which i so deeply      
sense  see      
and feel here now  
in this  
very moment     
where i am presently  
still this very moment  
truly so intensely feeling  
so much more  
vibrantly alive and free      
awakened  and attuned      
more fully      
into this      
much higher frequency      
of oneness awareness  
vibrationally filling  
every particle  
of my being  
especially where i  
presently am  
so deeply nested  
here in the living  
fully conscious  radiant heart  
of this beautiful  
wind mountain    
mornings  
truly transcendent      
living  healing      
innermost shining  
all encompassing  
transformational peace  
such a precious gift  
to receive again  
especially after  
so many  
long  long years  
of decades passed  
slipped away  
like slowly fading ghosts  
of distant  
past lives gone  
then suddenly now  
here today  
to have received again  
this precious  
sacred gifts requickened  
reminder again  
in such a beautiful  
sacred place  
perhaps not so much  
another miracle  
as it was  
the first time  
it was given me  
but rather this time  
perhaps more  
just another desperately needed  
long overdue  
timelessly timeless  
second act booster  
of equally wondrous  
benevolent grace  
nonetheless  
seemingly  
so very rare    
and increasingly    
hard to find    
anywhere  
anymore  
these    
days  
it
seems
