Being Home

Arrived home last night
from sunsets and moon rises
forever etched in my minds eye
whole body memory

as I was sitting in my kayak
in the vastness of the Pamlico Sound
where heaven and earth meet infinity murmurating birds  just off shore brought songs of delight 

sky and water of the same hue
reaching beyond my memory
into newness

 watery puffs of Dolphin breath passing within a foot of me as my kayak gently rocked with a sense of uplifting buoyancy

eyes seeing and meeting mine matching breath brought tears of connected resonance as open hearts oozed into the vast surround

sensations of nature being with (my) nature knowing this to be a result of practicing non freight the passed couple decades

 I am filled with so many emotional states all my body can do in response is empty 

all my heart connections brought to the forefront of my thinking as the continuing puffs and eyes pass bringing my heart into stilling mystery, gratitude, love and joy 

an initiation, a reunion, a continuation of my urge to become whole as part of the greater wholeness. Home.
