Today

Today...

The word vibrates with meaning as I sit in meditation this morning.

Today as a marvelous stage to act upon.
Today as a ship sailing,
casting off from what has been,
an island of experience, rich with possibility.

Today to venture deeper into the realm of God.
Today to know myself, even as I am known.

Intrepid traveler, where do you go today?

I go to seek my joy
in beams of sunlight falling on leaves.
I go into this moment, ever deeper,
a miner after infinite things,
riches not seen but felt.

I go for joy, for becoming, for the edge of life unfolding,
for the spice and luck and mystery
of all I can become.

Today...
