I am the Storm

You've come to me

Unspeakable passion

You wish to see

You've come to the edge

of who you're thought to be

 

Intense emotions

Lightning crash

Unknown abyss

Fearful ash

You are human

I am your clash

 

Summoned I am,

by spirit and soul

to drench and rinse

in the golden bowl

Your fears, like ash

To make you whole

 

I come to release

Light and power

Blue surging energy

Within my tower

You stand willing

Now come the shower

 

Winnowing storm

Embrace of Love

Seeking seventh heaven

You rise above

The storm I am

Initiated by the dove

 

Changed forever

Not to return

I give you passion

Your heart to yearn

Transformation

Is no wrong turn

 

I am the storm

Impacting your reality

You stand so close

The truth to see

My energy will quicken you

Into what you seek to be

 

For I empower

Commanding energy

Securing the matrix

Of All that be

In this radiance

Of higher quality

 

Prepare to ascend

You're going home

I offer you freedom

After the storm

For I am born of unity

Come to claim its own

 

Tell me now

What do you see

How powerful is

Your commitment to me?

I am the portal

Enter me

Beautifully written!

It is not the number of breaths you take that matter, it is the number of moments that take your breath away. (unknown)

Beautiful poem and gorgeous Picture!

Your words are both alluring and disarming at once. It is truly like standing on the very edge of something beautiful and frightening but cannot walk away. Portals are like that.
Rosa See Ya Oct 14, 2008, 12:17pm EDT
I once was fearful ash,
but the storm came
and with it the rain
that cleansed my soul.
The energy in the storm
empowered me to be
instead of just
trying to be
I AM

I love storms. I find them exhilarating and inspiring. Never fails to illicit reverence from me so an analogy to a portal fitting. Nice!

well written.
Jennifer R. Oct 14, 2008, 1:26pm EDT
Nicely done. The writer could be a jilted lover or Mother Earth. Great job.
Gerry Wass Oct 14, 2008, 1:37pm EDT
I feel that I am truly at the edge of who I'm thought to be and I am so ready to jump off that cliff to dive into the stormy ocean below, the ocean of eternal energy which is our birthright. It's a moment of transformative possibility in my life and you could have written this just for me, so thank you for the encouragement. I found that the "please" in the last line weakened it a little, but it's a beautiful piece of power.

Very beautiful, interesting that today is a Galactic Storm portal day and tonight is a full moon. And here it is raining - such a spiritually moving day ....

I am, the energy that moves me
I am one with the rain
My spirit is thundering
Now i feel no pain
Just sweet serinity of the storm that is within me

careful not to get sucked in!
Rosa See Ya Oct 14, 2008, 5:48pm EDT
Gerry, I think you're right so I'm going to remove the "Please" and thanks for that. And hey, it was written for you..... and you .... and you..... and you..... and all.

Rainy, of course you know I was thinking of you when I wrote this, since it is a Storm day, and a portal day, at that. I was just sitting here this morning soaking up the energy, and this is what came out. Thanks for your additional touch.
Rosa See Ya Oct 14, 2008, 5:52pm EDT
And oh by the way, Thursday is a portal day too - 7 Dragon. Wonder what kind of poem that will turn out.
Bhawana 'Gather Proud Mom' Oct 14, 2008, 5:52pm EDT

The I AM storm-------very much the huge hurricane tree-breaking holy winds we had here just a couple of weeks ago. Wow - branches flying, trees cracking, and the air just holy!

I would like to feature this on Labyrinth. It is an incredible journey.
Rainy Dayz Oct 15, 2008, 1:31pm EDT
i love the comments you're getting on this, thursday is another portal day? Whats 7 dragon mean? I wonder if portal das influence the way you dream,lol - Cuz i wasn't getting many clear dreams for several weeks there and now im getting flooded again .... i love you, and miss you bunches... and cant wait to see what you post on thursday.
Rosa See Ya Oct 15, 2008, 2:11pm EDT
Thanks everybody!

Karen, I don't know if I posted it to Labyrinth, but if I didn't , I will. I will check. Thanks!

Rainy 7 Dragon is Uuc Imix. It's like the mystical power of the larger pattern. I'll see what I can whip up for Thursday when I meditate. And yes, the energies bring you what they think you need. I don't write many poems, but the energies perhaps thought I should. I love you too, Rainy, and I miss you. I'll be so happy when you get here. In the meanwhile I am glad to see you here on Gather. I love that we can share posts.
Rosa See Ya Oct 15, 2008, 2:13pm EDT

the only word I can think of is "yum" ~ and that is sad on my part ~ this is one of the most sensual pieces I've read in a very long time Rosa ~ your muse has blessed you with a gloriously written work of art ~ sincere regards ~j

I happen to be ! After this read !!

So in love the storm beautifully able and endearing !!!
Tracey Lapham Aug 18, 2009, 4:56pm EDT
This is my new favourite poem of any I've ever read, no exaggeration.
There was literally this mounting tension and excitement with the storm, and then relief afterward.
I felt as though I were in a different world...
That is a gift!!
