OPENING THE CIRCLE

Start here. and now. with you. and we
who gather in open company
Parable of the Wedding Feast-open doors
and invite the whole world in.
Those who come -come for good reason-
they weave melodies and harmonies
and sing a future in. It arises when we spin
in syncopations and synchronicities
simple as this-bliss comes to those who kiss
the moment as it flies-William Blake is right!
Wings are given to those who fly
Landbound creatures forget their spirit origins
rise only when some ancestral call or howl
or chant or invocation blesses them
enough to trust that love alone will motor souls
into awakening. Tonight is such a night
and you are voice and smile, call and response
Open your circle-light comes
when doors open in our ears and eyes.
