We Are Each a Channel

By: Leslie Oldershaw

I would like to share this energy poem written by one of my TCC students……Teen

We are each a channel
For the virtues of the universe;
Love, Peace, Harmony, and Vision
Flow through us.

Open the ‘souls’ of your feet
Feel the energy surge from the Earth
And gather within you
Like roots into a tree.

Let the passions of the cosmos
Fill your heart, and radiate
Into every muscle and nerve
Like the blood that nourishes.

This strength then emanates forth
From your smile, fingertips, eyes.
It weaves its way through the stars
Creating the net of existence.
