Of Love, Life & Truth ~ Secret Wisdom in the Poetry of WordPlay

Of Love, Life & Truth ~ Secret Wisdom in the Poetry of WordPlay

~ by Vince Gowmon

Know,

know now,
the only time you can
k-now,

and you’ll win
your Heart over,

now
won

One.

But you may 
need to say a brave
No

to what is false,
what is not You,

to say
Yes

to what is real,
what you know
is true

now,
know now.

And so trust 
your 
inner No,

your
inner k-no-w,

its strength,
its worth,
its reason for being,

so you embrace
and follow
your Heartfelt 
knowing,

and boldly 
own 
what is 
kn-own
within,

making You more
authentically
known
to the world,

hiding less,
if only a little,

if only from your
beloved,
co-worker, 
friend, 
cat, 
plant…

If only you
own
not just what is known
now

but

what you’ve 
always known

since you were
a precious little one,

a colourful, wondrous child
with keen instincts,
a sense of Oneness

with Butterflies & Sunshine,
Trees & Puddles,

a child,
like all children,
who once upon a time
naturally trusted her/his

Heart,
without question,

a child who simply
knew
now,

who spontaneously,
exuberantly
owned
what is known,

without shame
or fear,

allowing
his or herself
to be gloriously
sh-own.

Trust, 
Dear One,
the child who
never left,

your Inner Star Child.

Trust
your Heart,
where your Inner Star Child
lives

and longs

for you.

Trust your Hear-t
and you trust
your inner 
Truth,

for Truth
is in the Heart,

is it not?

A Truth
your Inner Star Child,
like all children,
feels and sees,

stands for,
cries for,

nudging,
pushing you
in that direction,

to sing,
to dance,
to risk,
to express,

to feel
alive
again

and
Be Free
Me!

Slow,

pause and listen,

hear
your Hear-t,

hear
your Truth,

h-ear
with your 
inner ear,

hear
so you remember
who you are
in your
H-are-t,

who you are
in Truth,

your Power,
your Purpose,

the Loving Artist 
within
your He-art,

One with the
Stars,

Arts ~ Star

the Heart-ist 
You are,

the Child of God
that Loves to Create,
Loves to Play,

that Dreams
BIG Dreams
as children do.

And yet
your inner artist,
your inner power,
the Love You Are

does not come alive
without courage,
without vulnerability,
without tears,

without the heat
of Heart,

of heartbreak,

inner alchemy,
or healing,

each tear
a gift from your
H-eart,

a calling to slow,
let go,
say No,

to walk away,
inside and out.

To empty

what was,
what you thought true,
everything you are
and everything you do.

Empty
to such an extent
that you cannot 
claim this to be
your life anymore,

and Life
can at long last
claim you.

D-One
N-One
G-One
L-One
Al-One

or is it

All One?

It’s all done now,
it’s all done 
for you.

So it seems…

For in being 
d-one,
you remember
the One.

That

it’s all happening
here,
now,

done for you.

Indeed,
in courageously emptying,
in being 

done for,

you avail yourself
to be

done for.

As it is for 
you,

it is for me,

and our
dying, awakening world
whose prophesied End Time 
has come.

It’s done
for good!

And so,
Dear One,

I invite you
to

courageously,
vulnerably,
beautifully

have faith
in ending

and being
un-known,

in being done for,

have faith
in each tear,

the wisdom of their
direction,

with each 
let go,
each drop,
growing you

d-own
d-own
d-own

down now

into your waiting body,
its secret places 
and spaces,

silently crying,
calling 
you

into somatic
residence and resonance,

into your Holy Heart,
into Mother Earth

Heart ~ Earth

your humus,
raw humanness,
your earthbody,

safe
in the still
quiet depths,

the
Black Womb

of no-thing,

where you are
neither here
nor there,

nowhere
now-here,

the still zero-point,
at long last,

empty 

of all beginnings
and
endings
taken by time,

the Ground
of Being

from which
you indeed
rise,

you rise
anew
from earthy zero,

you rise
as destiny,

you rose
like a Rose,

a roze
from zero,

into the Light
of a
Golden Age,

your
Sacred Rose Heart
calling now,
guiding,

blossoming,

each precious petal
opening
beautifully,
joyously

You,

to the Grace
of Sweet Space,

Embraced 
by the 
Divine Mother of All Life,
Sophia,
God,

Her Luminous Rays,
Her Infinite Ways,

Her Love,

Always,
in All Ways

now-here,

no longer feeling 
separate,

but

together
to-get-Her,

at long last,
as you’ve always 
been,

in Truth,
in Love,
in your Heart.

One.
