Intention

Word of the Year 2013


intentions are bred
in the delicate depths
of our being
they come from
the seeds that are scattered
across the soulfield of experience

they sprout forth
peeking shyly above the soil
often turned back inside
never feeling the sun’s full rays



they need to be named and noticed
spoken of
called out
verbalized
voiced
nourished and kneaded
watered and tended to



soin lies their power
no longer dormant
but thriving and flourishing
like a flame
which severs the darkness
