The Teachers

Take me to the gateway of your everlasting
Existence and
Non-existence

Let me set forth with your light,
My light,
Our light.

Let me dive into the portals of presence
Into this world
And beyond

Show me the way, One.

Yet may I say
I embrace your directors
Who have paved and inspired our journey

Grateful for the oneness around me
Teaching and guiding me...
to the known and unknown.

Thank you to the human teachers of light

Thank you to the melodious sounds of the ocean.
(pause...listen)

Thank you to the still
And moving clouds.
(Pause...see them)

Thank you to my conscious...breath
(pause...feel it)

Thank you to the rocks and their stillness
(pause... sense it)

Thank you to the tree
Winter quiet and still
(pause...embody it)

Thank you passing car
Your sounds remind me of togetherness -
for we are not alone.
(pause...remember)

Teachers of Oneness
Everything and everywhere
Thank you for teaching me
How to remember the One.

Synopsis:
To me, presence is oneness. My life's purpose is to dwell more and more in this home. The beginning of this poem is like a prayer. And then I am answered by all that is in front of me. In the now with all my blessed given senses, I find my home. This is a homage to everything that are my teachers.
