The Gift Offered

A fountain pen on paper with a rose, an ink bottle, and cap on a wooden surface.
 
I resist surrendering to what is –
Life the way I want(ed) it to be
Causes much anguish
 
Creation slows
 
I move towards simplicity
To know truth
 
The gift of poetry,
Gets me out of my own way
Which is much better
Than thinking I have any answers
 
I relax into greater truth
 
Your gifts awaken something in me
My gifts awaken something in you
In our offerings we move
Together towards Wholeness
 
As trustees of the Light
May we surrender
To what is
 
Our souls uplifted
Creation continues
