A Woodland Teaching

Call me into the hollow
Where I will find my teacher
Walking the path I follow
I come to find this creature

Stillness hides him in the trees
Yet I feel those chasmic eyes
Movement returns with the breeze
Birds and leaves float through the skies

His hooves crunch the underbrush 
As he steps out from the pines
We join our gaze in a hush
Deep black eyes are met with mine

What is your reality?
I ask from within my soul
Relaxing, my heart goes free
And my mind gives up control

In his eyes there’s a knowing
It resonates all around 
Forms are shifting and flowing
Energy and light abound

The magical woods give way
To an underlining veil 
In shimmering colorways
Pulsating in each exhale 

This illusion diffuses
What remains is everything 
The chorus of the muses 
The heartsong we long to sing
