Desert Night
Owl Creek Bath -Sandy Jones The vibrations of heaven play in my mind. I hear harmonic tunes turning me into living poetry as I am painting love songs on the canvas of the sky. You merge into me, like music, as my words move you in melodic sounds touching your heart with the soft, silky, quiet breath of love. I feel the heat touch me. I am willing, as the wind unbuttons my heart and blows me into bliss. You came along, slipping, easing slowly into my heart, awakening these forgotten delights, like smooth, pink ice cream, melting into dreams, dreams written thousands of years ago, unwrapped...

Morning Light – Sandy Jones I have an indomitable buoyancy of spirit. I cannot be held down. I don’t know why, but it’s true. I rise up again. It just happens. It is the very nature of me. How joyous this is. Perhaps it is because I am filled with these effervescent bubbles of an enduring and unrelenting love, I suppose. Something lifts me up. I am bouncing in love. Bubbling up. Love keeps me afloat on this wild sea of life, this holy beauty that never ceases to amaze me. I am swinging on the sweetness of it’s glory, the beauty of its wholeness, its perfection. The sun and...

Joy Sings -Sandy Jones I am dancing in the dazzling sky, aglitter, sparkling with the light of emeralds, sapphire and diamonds. Flying over this great expanse of time. I see all the lives I have ever lived, I see it all. I see the past the future, as I soar across the joyful wonder of this timeless self I am. I am filled with myth and secrets and the beauty of this world in all it’s holy mystery. I am alive to the rhythm of the ancient drums that beat with life in the cosmic songs of the universe. The sounds of glory fill me up, lift me higher. My future is the living light of Life, and...

Owl Creek -Sandy Jones Music and rhythm move through me. I’ve heard the celestial choir, and it’s real. There are angels singing here in my heart. The music of my eternal soul. This whole wildly wonderful world keeps bringing me these joyful surprises. Tangible evidence of the love that has found me. It found me when I leaped into the idea that I have to live it, not just talk about it — well, if God really is all, if God is Life Itself, is All That Is, all that is, then, what’s to worry about, what more did I need to know? Then, bravely, in faith, I leaped. I let...

Ojai – Sandy Jones I found this fun sketch that I did. It was in an artwork folder with things I’d painted several years ago. It’s rather adorable, I think, so I just felt like sharing it. I love Ojai, it i such a lovely home for me. I cant’ think of a better place for me, in these times, in these days. I much say, I have been very lucky to have lived in such wonderful places. I grew up in Corona del Mar, one of the more beautiful beach towns of California. It was a very special little little enclave many years ago and remains so today. Then I moved to Maui for a year or two. After...

The rains have brought little sprigs of green grass, and the flowers are coming up. The trees are turning green, and young saplings are sprouting here and there. They are promoted by the inner stirrings of the Knowledge that leads them. Knowledge, no matter which way I look at it, is orderly precision and random disorder, both at once. There is order in randomness and randomness in order. Knowledge is total. It is Life itself. There is nothing outside of this. This Knowing must include it all, all opposites and everything that is. It is Knowledge that always was and forever will be. It is...
