Ancient Ones

Come to me O Ancient Ones
For I have missed you
Your presence fills me with
Light and joy

I hear you calling me in the night
Tendrils whispered 
On the winds of time

I receive you with grace and humbleness
In awe of your spirit
Your keen glance says everything to me

I see into you...
All that you have been
Lifetimes of pain, evolution  and 
Ascension beckon me
Your winged form welcomes me
Carrying shamanic wisdom from realms revealed

Returning to carry me inward
To unimagined beauty 
Towards the soul we all carry within us
That seeds, soothes and feeds
Our spirits

Your gifts unfold as I journey
To purple misty valleys 
Surrounded with living mountains 
Adorned with ancient relics

I am gifted with your knowledge
Of all things past 
Being reborn in the now
Thank you for allowing me
To know what it means
To be truly human

Scars of woven life grace my body
My depth of consciousness is a gift
That allows me
To see the beauty in others
I reach my hands out to you .. all of you
Humans, animals, plants, and energy
To kiss you with my fingertips

For we are one
Energies of light stitched together 
In such intricate grace
Gold cellular magnificence 
Diamond heart beats that glisten on wave tips
Salty spray
Eyelashes dotted with sunrays

We are united in our humanness
Kissed by the goddess of the wind
Always and forever
In gratitude for this moment in time

So evocative, Susan, I love your lines 'I see into you, all you have been' and 'eyelashes dotted with sunrays' - there is much wisdom in all realms~

Susan, your use of imagery - "energies of light stitched together" - showcase your amazing poetic talent. Each amazing image just leaves me in awe as they flow from stanza to stanza like a gentle waterfall. Love the last line. Sometimes it is hard to be in attitude of gratitude when chaos is the hallmark of our days but your last line is a wonderful reminder to be grateful for each minute. Thank you for this beautiful piece my friend. So happy to see you posting again. Blessings!

What an authentic poem...one I deeply identify with. I feel the connectedness with my ancestors from the past--so often.Hard to explain, but I know you'll understand.My connection with them is deep, enigmatic, and transformative. I also feel the oneness you mention in these lines: To see the beauty in others I reach my hands out to you .. all of you Humans, animals, plants, and energy To kiss you with my fingertips. We are all 'one' -- and I find that truth undeniable and reassuring. hugs, Sara

Truly shamanic. Authentic, as we embody the transcendent in the immanent, here, now, shifting from separatenesses to interconnectedness to oneness.

Much enjoyed the journey to purple misty valleys surrounded with living mountains adorned with ancient relics---splendid images throughout, Susan, stitched together in intricate grace--as you say. Excellent, as always.
