Grateful Heart

A grateful heart is not a light heart

But a full heart,

Full of loss and love

And the density of being Alive

Just when you feel there isn’t room

To take in anything more

into the crystalline of chambers

Not one more child in need of surgery

Not one more grim headline on the news

Not one more confusing conversation

Just when you feel there isn’t room

To take in anything more—

There appears a curious laughter in your belly so mysterious

A resonance that shatters the density

Like sound on stones of kidneys

Cascading an unstoppable alchemical transformation of heart

Making space for more to be

More to be held in the structures of love

The structures that formed in the womb

yet keep shape shifting

all the days of our Aliveness

A grateful heart is not a light heart

Yet a heart that is fully Alive

Blessed be the mystery

of sound healing🌀
