Morning meditation 220706- creative love covenants

 creative love covenants

---

My good woman let me out of the car this morning, but she didn't let me down. In fact her whole demeanour is increasingly to build up. Sharing life with her got me thinking…

---

My woman's good and she is certainly

the closest neighbour that I have on Earth,

I can't this moment understand, nor see

why I am so affected - on her turf.

A hint of her reproach (or disrespect),

in tone, or (over)look, in deed or word,

has such a disproportionate affect,

she has a way to really get me stirred.

And not just in some surface way, I feel

to really have a soal* connection with

this creature of such beauty that is real,

but comes from deeper metaphor than "kith",

akin to the deep diff'rences between

a covenant-or, or a contract-or:

A covenant enacted means there's been

a life put on the line, the treasure store.

But on the other hand a contractor

has limited their liabilities

in such a way they can't be asked for more,

the contract stipulates the payment fees.

But she I see gets up before it dawned,

and just decides to pay her debt of love.

It is a "pay it forward" scheme HE spawned,

or bought into, with what comes from above;

eternal currency that's covenant.

And I would learn to let this move each step

today I make, and ev'ry breath I pant,

full knowing by the end I will have wept, 

but also, too, I trust I will be kept

within, and growing up, inside that love,

a whole life lived within this world now dreamt

by love and truth, the two wings of this dove

who flies beside me in each bird that tweets

its message of abundant life in notes

that can be picked up freely in the streets;

"eternal covenant"  each one denotes.

And as my two feet mimic those two wings

& move me slowly through this lovely world,

I think it should be gardened by who sings

the songs of all the stories it has told.

* soal: to give the phonemes of both "soul" (meaning that core non-physical part of our beings that is the locus for our personality,  history, culture, language, sense of humour etc.), and "sole" (not in the sense of the fish, or the bottom of a foot or shoe, but in the sense of the only one, solitary) because both are true & work well in this context.

OLD TO NEW WORLD VIEW

Despite that science tells us "This world is

not what it seems on outside, to the feel,

with layers upon layers forming things",

I still believe that our ol' world is real.

Our scientific story tells us that

despite what we all see here (think we "know"),

there's layers of "community" which mat

together, and which interleave.. (quite so):《1》

Inside, within each body, making up

the living ones, are individu'l "cells",

or living creatures that can be corrupt-

ed, or combined to make a host where dwells

the multicelled "community" we see

that's planted right before us "on" (or "in")

our ground of being. Even you and me.

And these can be disrupted or can win!

The ways that these communities would seize

things 'round about to aid their tiny parts,

to work together: shelter, feed, and ease

their life, to bring a thriving from their starts,

are called in this Our world "to feed", & "clothe

and shelter", self or fam'ly, other lives.

The old words from Our world that covered both

are "love", & then there's "peace"- which meant "life thrives".

But smaller yet, each body that exists,

of rocks, or gasses, animals or plants;

(and irrespective of "life" tagged to its

existence as an entity, per chance..)

is made of smaller atoms, molecules,

or other things that kind of are like "seas".

But smaller yet (these aren't just words of fools)

are forces "circling", balancing with ease.

Where either particles or waves "impart"

existence to those higher levels too.

But here we haven't even made a start

on bigger things, like Galaxies and U-

ni-verse, or other categ'ries rehearsed,

like Supernova, Nebulae, and Giants,

Dwarves, and other stars that shoot and burst,

to cook up compounds, elements and ions

from which all of the rest can start to "be".

Invisible dimensions in this way

we start to understand, and maybe "see"

within our "mind's eye" - as they used to say.

But still our story makes more sense, or less

of all dimensions we've encountered here,

since we were born - to order and to mess,

with this ol' world. - And this is where I cheer

myself as I move on, and others too.

The world we "started" in, that let us learn

about dimensions and these worlds that you

have just now been reminded of, don't spearn!

The story that's apparent: God made this

whole world with more dimensions than you'd poke

at with a stick, does not seem so remiss

and starts to look less like it was a joke!

"The best is yet to come", as AA found

in fact, through living in this re-al world.

And there's a higher power hanging round

to see if we would reach out and be curled

within the love of biggest Dad, or Mum,

and let the Great Creator's fam-il-y

look after us and grow us, and then some..

towards more of a nature that is free

to love back, as we have ourselves been loved.

And that's why most religions in this world

admire, and think good-life was surely gloved

within the life, that we have mostly hurled

our insults at, and blamed him for our faults

and misdemeanours, laziness, and such.

It's him I would commend to you. Us dolts,

we killed the model human God loved much -

the second Adarm (and would kill his Eve,

that God brings from him while he's "not around").

In jealousy and ignorance, we'd weave

a net to catch them yet, like beasts been found

and named. So if you ask me to I'll tell

the story of the glory of God "THERE",

who loves his kids, and wants them to do well,

take on creative love, and learn to share.
