When blue grey gumtrees beckon you upon a red dirt path into the bush,
That twists through an increasingly thickening monotone of bushes that seem to whisper,
Your every step ’tis taken in trust that the path you’ve chosen has a desired end,
As one step too deep into the Australian bushland can leave one with more than a blister,
Especially when the weather’s warm and an unpredicted storm brews overhead…
For not every moment spent in nature is peacefully filled with blossoms and butterflies,
If one ventures too deep paths can vanish/merge/and eventually completely confuse,
Resulting in one at least feeling lost irrespective where they turn or how they mentally compromise,
Whilst yet another track leads one deeper into the overgrown abyss of a blue grey flora ruse,
The clouds darken and the gidgee wreaks as humidity thickens the air and dust blocks ones view of the skies…
Ones endurance starts wavering as mentally you struggle to remain calm with this moments stack,
Despite being an element usually solid that suddenly doesn’t quite have your back.
Yet amongst the looming threat of storm one stumbles upon another track,
Sunlight illuminating it akin movies guiding characters through sub plots that tend to lack,
With little else to guide you venture onwards hoping ’tis your subconscious with a supportive hack.
As when the red dust starts to swallow the chosen track you hastily walk upon,
And you note thunder starting its crackling through the sky ~ your ego retreats within,
Surviving becomes the perceived motivation as your mind surrenders to one’s subconscious’s song,
For you know a wrong turn in this moment could create challenges with a catastrophic spin,
Thus navigating beyond this situation needs to return you swiftly to where you desire to belong.
So step by step/turn vie turn with an element of faith in your heart you walk on,
Quintessentially returning to increasingly familiar surrounds ‘fore the downpour commences,
Retrospectively pondering your perspective in a rather mindful manner now paramount,
Until the seraphic aspect of venturing into the bushland once again overrides your senses,
Degrading any personal evolution not steadfastly integrated into ones being…

A Poetic Moment Pondering the Balance of Embracing Tech and Simplicity in Life
If the technological devices of our current day one morning were to vanish,
Once the chaos of abrupt change subsides ~ what would daily life really look like?
For whilst the material components of our daily flow have evolved substantially,
What we do throughout our lives is still quintessentially the same where our cores sparks strike,
’Tis just how we manifest it into our physical lives that we perceive to have become polar to the style of generations past…
As if our planets atmosphere were no longer loaded with human created frequencies,
Creators would still wield their crafts ~ They just wouldn’t have worldwide fans of it in an instant,
For ’tis their cores calling thus something they innately need to be doing for their alignment to not be loaded with disconnections discrepancies,
And children whom seriously game online with their friends would still be geeking out just disconnected and distant,
Closed away in books and exploring the sciences with minimal interactions amongst their tendencies.
Hence though a world unplugged may seem divine for a momentary resetting reprieve,
Allowing a lot of us to enjoy a remembered element of times before technology evolved it’s weave,
’Tis probably best balance takes the helm as we learn to align our days with it’s fast paced upheave,
Rather than wishing it would unravel ~ returning all to a perceived slower simpler foundations sleeve,
One could open their mind and ponder then perhaps apply what our current tech suite can help them achieve…
Therefore in the silence of your chosen devices electronic hum ~ what potential do you see?
Is there a way you could be evolving your usage beyond games/doom scrolls and networking?
If you were to have to cast it aside what element would you be replacing it with ultimately?
For these tools we have in multitude have exponentially near endless perspective uses lurking,
We just need to learn how we can personally enhance our core aligned life path balanced in our own way mindfully.
A Mini Mindful Moment of Rejuvenating with the Beauty of Australian Bushland
If one were to venture into the Australian bush in early springtime one would find,
Near every plant preparing to turn the usually monotone blue grey hues,
Into an epic array of a colourful display ~ not limited to shades of yellow and pink,
But an abundance of white/orange/purple/red and even a delightful element of blues,
To entice and enchant all whom pause long enough to take a fragrant breath and notice.
For once cleansing rain storms clear the dust and winter debris from leaf tip through to roots deep in the soil,
Near invisible flower buds start to abundantly grow ~ at times in greater numbers than the plants have leaves,
Akin ones energetic core being rejuvenated and rippling out into ones physical glow as they toil,
Allowing denser elements to transmute into lighter styles cueing seraphic mental reprieves,
After one’s lucubrated time away throwing balance into too tight a stress fueling coil.
Yet soon these buds have filled to the point they’re overflowing their protective ‘shell’,
Radiating their soon to bloom vibes throughout the bushland announcing spring’s to swell,
Like when one walks into a room uplifting it with their presence energetically cell by cell,
The flora’s enchanting it’s way through blooming enticing many an insect and more with its sweet fragrant smell,
As petal by petal unfurls in an outback and beyond perceptually endless bouquet for early springtimes spell.
Allowing those whom can a decadent time to seraphically enjoy a walk through their display,
Replenishing from ones mind to soul given the moment to acknowledge their bud through bloom,
For one can witness their whole melodramatic cycle in mere metres if they care to mindfully foray,
By tree and under where hidden blossoms on often unnoticed ground covers loom,
Despite needing to stay aware of any young chicks and fauna protective parents are watching play.
‘Till eventually the flowers wilt and fall with the help of a warm yet often gentle evening zephyr,
Floating lackadaisically to the ground below reminding all of our physical being mortality,
Though the bushland will soon again bloom in kind ’tis time to prepare for the summers heat,
To prepare to endure the challenges of our lives after reaping from what we’ve tended through stability,
So we can grow/evolve beyond our current best ~ to bloom with increasing grandeur we’re unable to yet imagine…
A Poetic Moment Pondering Releasing the Mundane to Handle Disruptions with Mindful Focus
We all know those days ~ the ones that shove our schedules epically into the bin,
They’re the ones that shake up our lives in ways we can find rather annoying,
For even when we know in advance of them happening we still can struggle within,
To integrate them seamlessly into our preferred flow of our lifestyles undertow,
Long before even an element of their preparation can remotely be pondered to begin…
Yet try as we might days that throw us off course deter the mundane from stagnating,
Like long awaited road trips that take all day with children trying not to be challenging in the car,
Can have moments ones mind can find rather inspiring even if ’tis only noticed later when contemplating,
How one’s evolved through their handling of chatter and the hum of rubber to roads soon afar,
Despite todo lists screaming in the back of ones mind the whole time of what they’ve at home awaiting lucubrating.
Despite all our known tools and how much we try to apply to take moment by moment,
Surrendering to challenges can be mentally impossible despite seeming a helpless component,
If one cannot turn off their mind to what still awaits their attention when returning to said opponent,
They could miss experiencing what may lie in wait to enhance their entire life within this particular segment,
Leaving them to flail alongside with merely a snippet of potential via a much lighter fragment.
Thus casting one’s unfinished tasks aside when off on an adventure ’tis paramount,
For one to fully align to what their journey is to bless their development with,
Knowing that the divine shall allow tasks completion when they’re supposed to surmount,
As having completed every single possible task before leaving so to clear ones mind is a myth,
As one’s mind can always find an element to replace what’s done often once ones en route…
A Poetic Moment Pondering how Shaping Your Mindset Shapes Your Life
Life, ’tis something too few take a moment to truely ponder,
But something we all usually unknowingly design…
For even those surviving their variant choose their mindset,
Which is where ones unique take on life allows them the ability to refine,
To evolve beyond the confines of the life they’ve been allocated/blessed.
Yet so many perceive themselves trapped within expectations bestowed,
Irrespective it be merely a belief that is probably more than irrelevant,
Sometimes they live their entire lives thinking they’re confined to their abode,
Unable to venture into the world beyond fearing horrific ridicule to be subsequent,
Thus remaining glued to their mundane survival style of life bearing an interesting mental load…
However, another with exactly the same perceived allotment may be seen to live a vibrant life,
Always smiling and taking every element as a blessing to be grateful for ~ even ones bringing strife,
Learning and evolving from their foundations melodiously akin the tune of a well played fife,
Never perceiving their lack for they focus on what prosperity they do have overflowing rife,
Rather than wallowing unnecessarily to throw off their balance along their minds sharpened double bladed knife…
Hence one need strive to check their mindset ‘fore determining their challenges as foretold,
As though not an easy element to adjust with guidance and a solid support ’tis achievable,
What is harder is ones ongoing maintenance for continued balance to not fall but hold,
Keeping ones mind open to learning beyond basics ~ ever expanding ones knowledge whilst remaining stable,
Rather than tumbling back into the defaulting arena of stagnations undesirable mould.
For life tends to not bend to mere faith alone but to what in your mind you believe,
As ’tis not the world that changes for the earth still cycles from seed thru plant to bloom,
Thus ’tis how one perceives the world that ultimately determines how ones life shall flow,
One’s mindset the foundation that designs the quality of that one attracts like a vacuum,
Manifesting exactly what one’s mind energetically intends to procure with infinite accuracy...
A Poetic Moment Pondering how Unseen Daily Habits can Enhance Your Life’s Quality
Daily writing prompt
What daily habit do you do that improves your quality of life?
When we find our vocational efforts flailing,
And the flow to our days scattering askew,
We need to explore within ourselves and our plans to find,
The exact elements that need realigning or adjusting,
To relieve us from our malfunctioning/disconnected bind…
As sometimes ’tis not what we’re attempting to achieve,
That is fragmented or misaligned to our core deep within,
But another element throwing our flow off via it’s energetic ripple,
Hence it may simply be akin to not switching off the tv the moment needed for the next days win,
Or not taking a replenishing moment for your body/soul/mind that throws ones future into a quibble.
Thus why ’tis paramount one listens to themselves ~ listens to what their body is telling them,
For ’tis too often from what we initially ignore that flailing elements creating our unbalance stem,
As even something seemingly irrelevant to manifesting our long term goals the size of an em,
Can quintessentially throw our ability to successfully lucubrate seraphically epically into mayhem,
Outing our ability to create even our most aligned endeavours into a magnificent gem.
Therefore once one unveils the faltering element efforts to realign it should be swiftly sought,
For the longer it’s astray the greater the challenges one shall face from the resulting disconnection,
As every passing moment it causes deeper energetic rifts which eventually filter into one’s physical,
Irrespective ones current ability to cast a regular late yet enjoyable night with others into mental deflection,
At some point in one’s future it shall have evolved into something possibly debilitating and quizzical.
So if one’s balance is askew and the obvious answers aren’t the elements befogging your desired flow,
Perhaps ’tis time to look deeper into regular unacknowledged near unconscious habits unseen,
For they may just be withholding the debris creating misaligned energetic disconnection that’s fraught,
Throwing off everything one attempts with their spiralling splinters aggravating wounds,
Until they’re discovered/abolished/realigned and one’s healed from the initially harmless affects they’ve wrought.
A Poetic Moment Exploring the Enchantment of the Australian Outback
Orange red dirt, huge red/grey roos, epic sunsets and vast usually clear blue skies,
They’re the Australian Outbacks well known signature image…
Yet beyond the flies and heat ’tis where a certain type of magick lies,
In the deep thick bushland areas that should be revered by all whom venture,
An easily deadly though enchanting location where it’s best to learn ways to be ‘bush wise’…
For ’tis a place abundant with delicately designed flora though it is often well hidden,
It’s ability to survive inspires a touch of strength within all whom happen to notice it,
Amongst the often blue grey blur of varying gum/gidgee/mulga and wilga trees which then,
Shelter not just fauna but vines and colourful flowers one often cannot even notice without a near hyper wit!
With natural glade style clearings and often moss creating a delightful element of zen.
Despite the remote element that makes venturing anywhere an often disconnected road trip,
For most phones struggle to even grasp a fragment of signal without some sort of bolstering equip,
Yet whilst one never sets out to race the likes of emu’s on a dusty roads straight strip,
’Tis always an adventurous quest that tends to strengthen the stability of every relationship,
Especially the one with your own mind as the hum of machine blends with one’s thoughts conscious grip…
And although there may be often dust in the air ~ and on that note everywhere else too,
Being able breathe and work amongst the near undisturbed dawn chorus each morn is such a treat!
Even when the cockatoos drown out the melodies of the other birds with their rather screechy cue,
’Tis nothing short of inspiring when the sunlights warm yet still gentle and the breeze wisps light and sweet,
Whilst the plants sparkle gently as they’re still covered in a touch of frost or the remaining early morn’s dew…
There’s often flocks of colourful inch tall finches and wrens flitting through the denser bush,
Their delicate song delighting all nearby whom are lucky enough to hear,
For whilst common they can be elusive even when they contrast plants like saltbush,
They do love spending a hot evening moment under a backyard sprinkler when they know they’ve little to fear,
And can be a spectacular sight on a bushwalk providing the desert myrtle’s kept clear of one’s tush!
A Poetic Moment Pondering how Life is Akin to an Outback Banana Vine
If one were to venture into the Australian Bushland chances are you’d find,
A delightfully greenish wild bush banana growing it’s ever entwining vine…
Now whilst it’s not that unknown for its place as a bush tucker delight,
Have you ever taken the time to truly let yourself be enchanted by it’s design?
Fully supported by those around it climbing inch by inch skywards and out,
Rather spindly and near unnoticeable when not directly in ones focuses line…
As all life like the vine ’tis never a straight path ~ but twists and twines through shadow and light,
Unfurling wherever it needs like the vine creeping over and through any obstacles it may face,
Often unable to pursue goals when attempting to go alone upon their quests plight,
Climbing easier through challenges when supported by another’s stronger grace,
Delicate but gaining strength from those whom enjoy this gentle beings energetic might,
Encouraging it’s progressive evolution as it seraphically sprouts at it’s own unique pace.
For much like the vine inching skywards we cannot see the next obstacle we must climb,
We may sense it when close ~ as it nears within the rhythm of our resonances chime,
But as we venture through our lives like a vine we’re never going for long in a straight line,
As the choices we make from challenges and desires mould the path of our soul sublime,
Irrespective of our destined purpose we grow and evolve with each breath our lungs entwine,
Overcoming debris and striving towards our light ‘till blinded at the end of our physical time…
Hence we learn our route like vines ~ energetic tendrils constantly tasting our options ahead,
Scouting our ideal path through so we may learn and grow as we need whilst we unfurl,
Reaching for support from others at times when we otherwise shall flail with dread,
Ideally learning to flow with a fragment of alignment with the ocean of beings around us as we energetically spiral and twirl,
Grounded by our physical selves regardless of how lightly we aim for our impact to tread,
Forever evolving from each moment we experience not that polar akin to a pearl.
Thus like a vine one should endeavour not to rush ~ but reach/listen vibrationally/grow around that we cannot budge,
Allowing life to seraphically guide rather than force our way through disconnected from our inner core,
Always developing our minds to enhance the expansion of our perception even when our conscious opinions vastly differ,
Flourishing only when divine timing blesses us with conditions perfect for what our unseen path holds in store,
Which for some can create internal challenges rather undesirable as quests towards dreams constantly stray,
Blinding them to the beautiful life they already have ~ the abundance/prosperity/love/achievements they’ve already manifested galore.
A Poetic Moment Pondering how Listening to Your Body is a Path to Wellness
Daily writing prompt
What strategies do you use to maintain your health and well-being?
Wellness, ’tis a delicate balance that is often swayed when one looses the rhythm of their life’s dance,
Yet often we get busy and overlook what our whole being needs holistically to maintain our alignment to it’s beat,
Pushing to achieve in a way we were never supposed to ~ disconnected not just from our core,
But from our entire being! Unable to notice it’s cries ‘till they’re symptoms in a viscous and often expensive cycles feat.
For our bodies keep score with scars and lessons guiding our souls script for our lives,
Thus if we choose to refuse to listen to our script we can find ourselves amidst challenges seemingly never ending,
Needing an abundance of supportive elements just for one to continue at least the illusion of being one that thrives,
Despite spiralling into a disconnected whirlpool often accompanied with expenses near never ending.
As our bodies energetically whisper what they need before they scream in physical pain,
Like an alarm that’s gradually increasing ~ hoping to alert our rather stressed and distracted brain,
Irrespective of deadlines/schedules and the to-do lists you may believe are important to obtain,
However if we ignore our body to chase our chosen hustle what do we truely actually gain?
Hence maintaining balance though ‘tis delicate is often not always something one needs to find,
But what one need remember to adhere by listening out for when our bodies notify us that it’s strayed,
Even if it be as simple as following strategies like drinking enough water to quench ones thirst at least in your mind,
Or inhaling a meditative breath taking note that your amazing body has endured everything that your life thus far has parlayed…
For energetically; healing has no destination ~ ’tis a reconnection to ones holistic soul,
Rebuilding fragment by fragment from the centre of ones divine core outwards entwining with all,
Thus remember that first one needs to listen to their body then allow it’s guidance to flow,
Evolving lifestyle and perspective respectively according to the aligning action it happens to call.
A Poetic Reminder that Finding Balance Includes Embracing Rest in a Chaotic Life
On the days one finds their flow a little clunky ~ a little dull, near hazy yet ironic…
It may just be a simple ebb to the flow of ones chaotic norm allowing one a moment to rest,
A simple lull though it may leave one feeling like there is something missing ~ something off,
As if an element has been overlooked within this current moment upon ones lifelong quest,
Yet even once one uncovers this balancing perspective and convinces it to your mind,
It may still be a challenge to be a touch lackadaisical despite knowing in this moment ’tis rest that may be best…
Hence rather than resting one may start adding elements to the void the lull’s created,
Often things irrelevant in the long term or necessary for a different future moment,
Causing a type of procrastination in a style that seems slightly destructive when later debated,
Irrespective the importance of the side quest ones chosen to undertake instead of a replenishing component,
For even the most delightful aspect of what ones chosen to do that leaves one adequately elated,
Still drains ones being further ~ rather than energetically recharging one’s being for their next task style opponent.
Thus if one cannot ‘switch off and allow their being time to replenish with any element of ease,
Perhaps finding a meditative task to balance ones flow with a relaxing style of task may bring a greater please,
As sprinkling ‘tasks’ akin to disconnected yet mindful tea time can be enough to sway ones mental load to appease,
The stresses that weigh one towards burnouts grasp threatening one to be crawling into bed completely quanked on their knees, Wishing they’d taken that lackadaisical moment when life’s load was light to read ‘neath the trees,
Yet when the next lull arrives they will probably once again find a way to push rather than chill leaving replenishment once again a thought upon the breeze…
