I am a wanderer. I would say that I am a seeker, but sometimes I have no idea what I might be seeking, so I will stick with wanderer. This blog is more a public journal than anything. I don't claim to have life figured out. I simply stumble from mystery to mystery, and share my reflections along the way. Sometimes I feel burdened, and trudge. Sometimes? Well sometimes grace breaks through, and its time to dance.

Re-Creation
“Astonishing material and revelation appear in our
lives all the time. Let it be. Unto us, so much is given. We just have to be
open for business.”
― Anne Lamott, Help Thanks Wow: Three Essential
Prayers

sitting on a rock
amidst the sage I stare out over
gray-green, brown emptiness
the wind blows gently through the juniper
carrying with it
the smell of the high desert
dust devils swirl
and dance across alkali flats
a string of antelope scampers
through the jagged landscape
nimble and fleet
disappearing in the dust
the grand desolation
seems endless
and in the hallowed silence,
in the timeless dust
in the stark complexity of this place
the Sacred stirs
and hovers over the surface of the deep
over what was formless and void
over my unquiet mind
re-creation
