CAST ME GENTLY INTO MORNING

“This is my morning face. When I am less than full of grace ...

No make-up, hair's a mess, shiny nose, gazing into outer space.

Love me or leave me or cast me gently into morning ...” - AP

 

“When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around.”

 

- Willie Nelson

BENEDICTION

 

The gentle rain that melts away all doubts

all fears and judgements that are better to cast out

so that inside us we can rest our weary minds

allow our hearts to beat a rhythmic kind

of tune and dance until our heart's are quite content

allow in grace and benediction meant

to soothe our souls; allow our aching limbs to rest

acceptance is a blessing; let it do it's best

to heal us and to warm the chillness from our bones

so only light can enter and radiate outwards and atone

for all those times when we were not quite perfect

let slip away those things and start again

newborn; rejuvenated; without pain

focus clearly on the point of light and then refrain

from ever letting darkness overshadow what you know is true

that all things come to pass and so will I and so will you

right or wrong, so many petty little things

prevent us from being joyous; clip our fragile wings

soften; softer; soft and peaceful now

inhale; exhale a lighter pale of purest, white as snow

the smallest problems that we each allowed

focus on each breath; let passing thoughts float by

it's possible you know to let our troubles

slip away from us like clouds up in the sky

it's easy but you have to want to make it so

my mind was racing fast, but now it has no place to go

no place that it would rather be, you see

than resting in this moment's silence

it allows me to be me

it allows me to be free …
