Dreams on the wind

By Tania Canibear

 

Once by a quiet river I knelt

with the flower of my heart ablaze.

 

A silken thread of spider web

floating and curling by

caught upon my face.

Whose thread of dream in flight

is this touching upon my skin?

I felt it...it was familiar, yet not to me.

 

This is human dream that has found me,

thought Earth, her face aglow.

Long lost has the human dream been to me.

I called long with my heart but there was no answer.

But look, long has this thread been carried

on the wind eddies of the world.

 

Earth gathered the thread in tender hands

and lay it in the river

holding one end of its slender weave.

The water channeled the message

held in this one enduring light spun strand.

 

A swirling life of colours then danced in the water

and a scene appeared.

A broad plain of rolling, swelling grass.

The ones whose eyes Earth was now looking through

were walking and had journeyed far.

There is a human family looking for me?

Earth wondered, a tear ready to overflow.

They are alive this moment and looking?

 

Earth reached through to the moment,

manifesting as a great lion in their path.

The lion stood like a wave crest in its golden, shinning body.

The humans stopped, awe struck

'What are you seeking, friends '

said the lion to the humans.

From the group, maybe a hundred strong,

a child came forward and spoke,

 

'Beautiful Lion, we are looking for spirit long lost from our hearts,

for the pulse of our creator within our bodies,

for the thread that is an eternal flow and whose breath is love.

For we are lost, even upon the body of our mother, and are in great longing.

Please lion, I have been searching with my family from the moment I was born,

where can we go to be reunited?

 

And the child fell to her knees and lay upon the earth

her tears flowing.

 

The lion melted into a soft breeze

flowing to the child

caressing first her face and hair,

her arms and body, legs and feet.

 

The child murmured, '.. the pain is gone'

and rolled over to look at the sky,

'I am everywhere at once, nothing is now too far'

 

The same breeze flowed to all the humans

and loved them as with the child.

Then from out the other side of the group ran the lion,

a gathered, powerful, golden, streaking orb,

across the plain.

Where it ran the land began to turn in upon itself,

like a deep valley had opened

that all the world was flowing into,

gathering itself.

 

The human family now stood upon the last peak to go,

but it too flowed from underneath them,

they were now falling.

One elder called to the others,

'Wait for the outbreath, it is coming'

And they fell still, but then it did come .

 

Out flowed new earth

a burning vibrancy to its form.

And the family landed softly on a layer as out it streamed

at an incredible pace.

Then the breath was complete.

 

The human family found themselves by a

crystal glimmering lake.

From the lake Earth spoke,

'Here is a place for the human family.

You are Beloved unto me.

Walk in Peace, in Divine Union.'

 

The child who had spoken before came forward

a flower in her hand

and lay it in the water,

into Earth's hand

 

' .. beloved unto me...'

whispered Earth to the child

 

'all the world is love ' spoke the child with sparkling eyes.
