A poem in that section
A warm, healing space
held in love and care
comforting rituals, intent and invitation,
a burning candle, a pleasing incense, a
resonating bell
the sacred act of sharing and listening,
gently swaying bodies and beating hearts,
a warm cloak, a tender embrace,
a breeze of words , breaths, pauses,
and comfortable silence,
feeding heart and soul,
a river of stories,
a gentle nudge to dip in, imagine, soak,
flow
a place of discovery, wonder
of surprising reveal
self, the unfathomable and assuring red
thread and beyond
a journey
a warm beckoning, to travel
to known and unknown, familiar and
unfamiliar
at a moment known, unknown
and return
at a moment known, unknown
an unending beautiful bridge
one for forever, when our heart reaches
out…..
