Life Force....thing one, two and three

There is a vitality,
a life force,
an energy, a quickening,
that is translated through you into action,
and because there is only one of you in all time,
this expression is unique.
Martha Graham

Moving, pulsing,
shooting,
pulling me,
encouraging me,
beckoning me,
from deep within side
of me
is
this
incredible
"thing"
it is like
"thing one, two and three"
all
rolled up into one
and
if that
sounds a bit
theological
perhaps
it is
in
its own sense.

There is an incredible thing
an
unseen
force
of sorts
that
pulses
out of my heart
enters my head
changes
my emotion
and
roots my energy.
I do not
understand IT--thing one two and three---
can't quite fathom
IT
can't even
see
IT
but yet I can feel IT
in some strange mystical way.

IT
doesn't make sense to me
I can ignore it
but
just as soon as
I discover
i have pushed IT
as far as I can push IT
IT happens

the quiver starts
the pulse appears
beginning slowly and
then
the surge
of force
that at times feels
the wind of a tornado
swirling
and twirling
and
keeping me unsettled--it rises up and messes up my neat little abode.

IT
is part of me
even when I choose to ignore
IT
beckons me to move toward goodness
off my unique gifts
a bit at a time
let IT
move from me
to
thee

sometimes
on a good day
I am free to let IT out
allow that mystical electrons
to
move
quiver
escape
if you will
into the universe

after that
I have nothing to do with it
mystical life force
moving forth
bouncing around
hitting you
and  him and her...

I suspect it happens that way all the time
goodness that is
hope rising up
from the depths of our skepticism
faith meeting fool
grace washing over us like
the drop of water that hits the puddle,
tiny ripples moving out
running into
mixing and becoming part....

IT
I don't understand IT
don't even trust IT
but
IT
pulses
through me
thing one, thing two and thing three
IT changes me
It changes the world.

IT is what IT is
what IT was
what IT will always become

I am learning
a bit each day
to
once again
trust
in the
force
the IT force
that runs through my veins

and
I feel
my heart beginning to hum once again.

Have a great Monday morning..
blessings
