The Power of the Manifest: Love Nest

The Power of the Manifest:
"Love Nest"
Dinner at sunset, the delectable table is spread before a vista of deep pink, burnt orange, persimmon and shades of violet blue, below us emeralds linger towards the sapphire of life, real, shining and rippling, the flow, alabaster sailed tall ships out the window breaching a wake on dreams towards us, safe harbour, a room with a view and a bridge inviting the muse to cross the bow, to stay to whisper with the Siren secrets sensual, singing southern operatic tunes in passionate hues beneath the now becoming diamond strung sky of midnight indigo blue one becomes the two in the quiet hours An eagle, far from the safe confines of his homely nest, wings extended intense, hovers outside, considers the feast, then flies through the open window he stays for a while longer than intended lives without hood and fettered bell ringing talons with a calm sea'd mistress who's murdered crows to manifest the future in it's calm and peaceful Nowness He is free to come and go to cross the Bridge to find the Tree of Life the golden hounds to cross the the bough the air breathless, burns "as honeycomb sway in the tree..."

1. Bow The bow is the forward part of the hull of a ship or boat, the point that is usually most forward when the vessel is underway. a weapon for shooting arrows, typically made of a curved piece of wood joined at both ends by a taut string.

Good things come to good people, eventually. Ah, the fireworks, front row seats. How exciting, two worlds, the best of both hemispheres. Despite the horrid destruction of bushfires these past few months, my country is a wild untamed beauty all unto herself. What a dazzling view, what a dazzling life. xx
