I HEARD GOD LAUGHING
by Daniel Ladinsky
It is Happiness Applauding itself and then taking flight
To embrace everyone and everything in this World.
It is Light breaking ground for a great Structure
That is your Real Body -called Truth.
It is Happiness Applauding itself and then taking flight
To Embrace Everyone and Everything in this World.
Laughter is the Polestar
Held in the Sky by our Beloved,
Who Eternally says,
"Yes, Dear ones,come this way,
Come this way toward Me and Love!
Come with your tender mouths moving
and your beautiful tongues conducting songs
And with your Movements--Your Magic Movements
Of hands and feet and glands and cells--Dancing!
Know that to God's Eye,
All movement is a wondrous language'
And Music--such exquisite, wild Music!"
O, What is Laughter, Hafiz?
What is this precious Love and Laughter
Budding in our Hearts?
It is the Glorious sound
Of a Soul Waking Up
I think this is a nice poem to ponder on..A Soul waking up and moving with the universe...If one lets go of the man made boundaries that are so structured that the soul has no need to wake up, he will see a different world before him. God gave us freedom to a degree, but man needs these rules and boundaries because he has no knowledge of what to do with this freedom. Even if all boundaries are erased , man will make up new boundaries, new restrictions and rules because we are afraid. Perhaps it is fear we learned at the Garden of Eden...if you think about it that is the root of everything. Some people are afraid of being loved some afraid of loving, afraid to trust, afraid to explore too much , it is interesting ..if you took fear away , the world would be very different. Is Satan's name really fear? Wake up your soul, hear God's Laughter and Joy in the Universe!!
Because I know it is there
That different people say the different names
Of the One God."
Would you tell your friends
I was a bit strange if I admitted
I am indeed in love with every Mind
And Heart and Body.
O, I am sincerely
Plumb crazy
About your every thought and yearning
And limb
Becaue, my dear,
I know
That it is through these
That you search for Him

LAUGHTER
It is Light breaking ground for a great Structure
That is your Real Body -called Truth.
It is the sun poking its sweet head out
From behind a Cloud
You have been carrying too long
Veiling your eyes and your heart.
Here is one of my favorites
Would You Think It Odd?
Would you think it odd if Hafiz said,
"I am in Love with every church
And Mosque
And Temple
And any kind of Shrine
You are listening to a beautiful music sample from the Neah Bay CD, by Steven Pfister.
Look for my new books "Angel Lights" and "Butterflies and AngelWings." Angel Lights will be out for Christmas and "Butterflies and AngelWings" will be out this coming year 2000.
