Stardust

Let me tell you a secret

Listen, listen carefully,

turn inwards to the

heart of your heart.

Be still, feel the beat,

the steady rhythm

of the blood flow,

running through your veins.

Put your soft hand

gently over it and let

the pulse connect you.

Are you paying attention?

Can you hear the secrets

of your soul, of your

very, precious being?

The secret is not meant

to be so – it is wishing

to be heard and

shouted aloud,

with due ceremony

and appreciation.

At the core, the centre

of your manifested being,

is a crucible of stardust

that has gathered and mixed

all the dazzling pinpricks

of light, of energy,

that illumine

the dark universe.

So that you, in your entirety,

can offer light and hope,

to all who come into your orbit.

And this very secret is also

a commonplace knowledge

that everyone shares.

We are all connected

by this web of diamonds,

supporting each

and every one of us.
