She came to him, not from here, but from within and said, “you will find me and that is when it will begin.” “How will I know,” he replied. So while her light faded to another world she smiled her words to him, “you will see yourself in my eyes.” He paused alone, ”I don’t know if I can.” To which she sang, “you will hear my voice in your heart; follow it.” And as fast as she had come, she was gone.
He jolted awake, then bounced from bed to draw a cool faucet to wet his neck. And leaning upon a porcelain sink, he gazed himself in the mirror. Then whispered, “what just happened here?”
While the days went by, the daze left his mind. And over time, his heart raised a home to guide him how to live. Where hear her song nourished him. For whence his mind bathed in novelty; his heart twittered, “follow me.”
Then it happened, but he didn’t know it yet. For inner change finds its outer gain within an overlapping dance. But he could feel her energy. And like sprinkled bits of shining shred, he connected her to a brighter bed. Where there she lay dreaming diaries. So farther still he followed her, through a clearer current, where washing walls was divining her. For destiny always finds; through its chrysalis , a minted life that rides upon a butterfly.
Which delivered him to an isle beach.
And so within his reach, from chrysalis to catalyst, an angel as a woman appeared. And this where he is, found her eyes gazing him. Within an eternal pause, his heart opened to see at once…it was she. So she held his hand on her beach under open skies capering. And here he stroked her heart fanning the light about her eyes. While bliss so blessed on pebbles strolled, a smiling dove cooed their lives. And longing lips found their love; whilst instantly, time vaporized. So he had found her again. And she welcomed him to hold her dear for now. While lapping waves giggled with the shore to cleanse their hearts as one.
And thus it had begun.

Wow Randy… beautiful
I talked to the sky
and cried “oh why?”
and this it told me..
you must find your peace here
before you can bring it back
listen for the signs and follow your heart
interesting how many signs are being given
all over the place
keep smiling
keep shining my friend
Thankyou LunaJune, always enjoy your poetic comments, and yes…smiling is food for the soul…thanks again ☼
So often, Randy, when I read your work the first response that comes to mind is “Wow”. And then silence. Perhaps I should leave it at that – silence is an unusual state for me and as such is a gift.
I seek a new vision of partnering. A new way of living the sacred connection that lies between all in that intimate space shared by two. This is a lovely articulation of the serendipity I suspect might be involved if I stay in my life, celebrate who I am, and trust the passage of time and life to connect me to the one (or ones) with whom I am to share that part of myself. I went to bed last night knowing you had promised new work and woke to this piece. Life is full of awakenings – real and metaphorical. This is a sweet way to start the day.
See you later!
Thankyou so much Sue. I have a much different relationship with myself these days…and it is one better aligned with the will of love which flows most freely through an open heart. Love teaches me everyday, not so much of who I am, but as to what I am. What I’ve also learned is that most experiences of love are beyond the capacity of words to express. But I can always try.
And Sue, you never fail to be my friend when I need a friend, and for that I am blessed. Thankyou.
It was nice to find this here this morning Randy
A beautifully visual story of the eternal “love found” .
Thanks Diana, I’m glad you enjoyed it. This piece of writing is very special to me for I found in my heart.

You write such beautiful words, like a dream or a reverie….but I still see the world from my wounds and probably my fears.
I watched the youtube video (see above) and it made me think. I think deep, true love exists, but I am not sure that everybody finds it. I wonder if people like me are meant to be alone. Not lonely….not miserable…just alone. I am content in my romantic solitude.
Regardless, what you read was so deep and so moving, I read, re-read, and pondered. It is a beautiful story. If it is a true story….don’t let it go.
Lisa
Okay….in my reverie, I miswrote…the last line should read Regardless, what you WROTE (not read)……
Thankyou LisaB for you open and beautiful comment. Those feelings that you describe I feel so often too…yet, somehow, in my heart, I sense and know that real love does exist! What I am learning with myself is that love has never been held from me. The more I dare to trust my heart, the more love finds me. Never stop opening the heart. Never give up on love my friend…even if it appears that it gives up on us….which I know it never does. People like you continue to inspire me, and to remind me to never give up on following my own heart. You’re a beautiful soul LisaB. Thankyou for reading and commenting on my blog. And as you already know, you are always welcome here! ☼
sing your song to the world
love will hear it and sing along
weave your dream
and love will
come to be entangled
in the flowing
that you’ve given all along
I love the way your write
the glow, the story shows
makes me smile
What can I say, love and hugs back to you my friend ☼
L’amour n’est jamais contrainte.
Il est
joie,liberté,force.
Et c’est l’amour qui tue l’angoisse.
Translated:
Love is never forced.
There is
joy, freedom, strength.
And it is love that kills anxiety.
Merci beaucoup pour cette Vanbelle … joliment dit! Je ne pouvais pas d’accord avec vous, l’amour est suprême! ☼ღ [ Thankyou so much for this Vanbelle...beautifully said!! I could not agree with you more, love is supreme!! ☼ღ ]
Randy……our writing meets as one in a sea of words that only we know. I am blessed to have met you among your dreams and my stars….
The ocean is eternal glass that reaches to the sun as our lives reflect off the sand and onto the sky…….. we are one
