Rainbows...
MAY 17, 2010
I painted rainbows
all day today...
read them,
remembered them,
saw them everywhere I looked,
despite the gray day
filled with rain
making you think it was the dead of Winter...
Then walking home...
I saw this rainbow of sorts
along the way,
our neighbor's yard
filled with lupine leaves
catching diamond
crystals
singing to the symphony
of flower
gems
so sweet
I could
not resist snapping their picture
with my antiquated
cell phone....
Where I have to type
each letter slowly
like a typewriter of years gone by,
reminding me of a time
when things were slow...
and you had the time
to see rainbows
in unexpected
places...

Labyrinths provide us with a path to practice change. Some labyrinths have withstood the passage of time for thousands of years. Others are here for just an afternoon, drawn in the sand at the edge of the ocean. Many modern labyrinths were meant to last for years, but because of unforeseen circumstances their time is shorter than intended. And they once again help us to practice letting go and giving thanks for the time they are with us. The Labyrinth of Life at the Sebastopol, California Teen Center reached such place of letting go and is at the end of one chapter and the beginning of another chapter that is yet unknown.

Sometimes... a labyrinth can take years to become a physical reality. In 2018 I met with my friend Deb, to discuss her desire to have a labyrinth on the beautiful land she lives on. Despite our plans and several meetings, listening to the land and finding the right spot, the labyrinth did not come to fruition. Fast-forward five years and in the blink of an eye... it happened!
