Surrender

Written in the sky, on the spray of the sunset, Surrender was seen
In this humbling silence, my body stills, waits, returns to breath and remembers
“Surrender”, escapes my next exhale
Instead of push, force, restraint, I choose to command my skin to soften, my breath to open, and my heart to drop closer to Earth’s wishes
The chilling glaciers within me rumble, adjust, and transform as Surrender slowly melts them away
Now into cold rivers awakening my body to unveil the Truth
My warming core honors the Truth like the heart needs oxygen-rich blood to pump
I Surrender to being my simple, internally quiet Self who listens, waits, feels and responds to this ancient powerful force within and around me
What is mine, if missed, will wash back up to me on the ever-moving forgiving shore
What is dying within me, I let fall through the minuscule cracks of my bones down into the soft sand under my toes and back to the core of the Earth
This natural rhythm of Surrender soothes my old soul to rest, causing my new chorus to find my lungs and be sung
Unembarrassed, I Trust, heart wide open, feet rooted, and body dressed in Light
I Surrender
