Spaciousness

Imagine you’re spreading your wings.
Now inhale deep and move your body.

Do you notice space opening within?

This spaciousness is always available,
requiring only the breath to reveal it.

In this space is your being,
the sacred palace of your soul.

You must come here to collect
the many gifts you have to give,
before delivering them to the world.

And it is here you must return,
bearing the gifts others have given.


Desert bandit,
penance breaker,
silver moon beloved, you’ve come.
Rumi
