Something precious

Posted on Oct 21st, 2008 by HummingBird : Joy HummingBird
Curtainblows


(dedicated to those who are loving and all those who grant others the honor of loving them)



There was something precious
about the way you left your window open
that day it rained and the wind was howling
Your gauzy curtain, a dancing muse, flying
wispy poetry for all eyes to see

There’s something precious shared
When you leave your heart achingly wide
to share without withholding
loving without a single thought
For that utterly unprotected warm place

There’s something precious that happens
When you drop those boundaries
between self and others and objects
And gift all earth with the abundance
Of boundlessness

There's something precious about being so open to someone else and to all the world has to offer you. That's beautiful and is something that a lot of people need to read. It reminds you that there is more to the world than just protecting yourself from experiencing it. Well, that's only if I interpretted it right. :)

…hearts achingly wide…sharing without withholding loving.  The wide-open loving compassionate heart. 

Your words are sooooo sweet and tender and true, they make me weep – in quiet joy.  What strength, power, wisdom, and Truth are held within those few words you have written!

Deep bows.  Peace and Love,
Jeannie
