Dawn Patrol

10/15/2022

 
So much has been moving and rattling and coming undone in my psyche that I'm not even going to try to play catch up... I'm sticking in the moment. This morning I was present to a feeling of riding waves of energy. I'm also present to the natural world which is full of cycles and circles and spirals and seasons. I am apart and also a part of all of that. I ended up writing a poem of sorts, just an observation of the reality being a rider of the waves of energy. I enjoyed checking out the surfer slang both for names of the ways waves look and behave and interact with surfers as well as insight into the affects the waves can have... wipeout, washing machine, raked over... worked. I definitely feel that way some days. There are also Party Waves and Rock Dances, peeling and paddle pussies. How fun!

Dawn Patrol
There is a wave - a swell - a ripple
Over - under - through all that is
Today I am outside
(The place beyond the lineup
beyond where the waves break.)
Bobbing on the energy tides
Searching the horizon
Observing the lines
Looking to catch a "heavy"...

I am a member of the Planet Earth Wave Tribe
A human surfing Mother Earth's space & time.
I am a member of the Dawn Patrol.
A wave rider
A swell traveler
A ripple jockey
A crest seeker
A breaker bandit
A student of swirl
A guide of sweep
A queen of quiver
An architect of flow
A mistress of whirl.
Am I sleeping or awake?
Does it matter?

Pulsate - Palpitate
Vacillate - Swish
Rise and Fall
Billow and swing
I twirl and wobble
Twist - dive - soar.

I am a FREE agent
Grateful, Thankful
and Blessed.
