"The Dream" ~ Writers Island

NOVEMBER 19, 2007

_I Dream..._
_The cool gold_
_of your wedding ring_
_inscribed with our names,_
_my name,_
_in the space_
_of your heart,_
_your love whispered_
_as we descend into deep waters…_
_I am filled with you,_
_my heart_
_is full of you,_
_my passion_
_carries me over_
_and over_
_rolling waves of your heat,_
_of holding your sweet face_
_in my hands,_
_of your lips_
_burning_
_tender upon mine…_
_I take all of you,_
_hand over hand,_
_climbing the scaffolding_
_till we reach into each other_
_filling ourselves_
_with the longing of my love_
_since I first desired you…_
_“Courageous”_
_you say,_
_“you must be courageous…”_
_I wake_
_with your voice echoing..._
_I see_
_bronze starlight_
_in velvet black,_
_solar system born_
_beneath_
_the layers of my sleep_
_where I find you_
_reaching for me_
_again and again…_

The Retiring of a Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

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.

Making A Three Circuit Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

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!
