Spirit is Waiting – A Poem

Spirit is Waiting – A Poem

We will all make our way down
that corridor into white light
where time stands still,
death our guide.

If you harbour any doubt
your body won’t fall to ash—
dispel it. Your mortal body
will surely turn and pale.

Pale at the end, the spirit
no longer contained by flesh,
will rise, taking flight, a blue star
racing across a blue sky.

A longing now, though?
Blue appears on your horizon,
spreading, staining out. You look down,
your fingers azure, your skin growing turquoise.

Taking flight, a blue star racing
across a blue sky, your physical body in tow.
You don’t need to wait for death.
Spirit is waiting, the body in tow.

About This Poem

It took me a long time to realise that I don’t have to wait until I die and reach the Other Side to be reunited with my spirit. It’s here with me now; it always was. Any time I feel afraid or uncertain, I just have to lean back into my spirit.

We will all make our way down that corridor into white light where time stands still, death our guide. If you harbour any doubt your body won’t fall to ash—dispel it. Your mortal body will surely turn and pale.

They say eventually we’re all drawn back to the place of our birth. We must follow the bloodline. It leads to the gold centre of the heart.

Incarnation, when your soul takes flight, high over the cosmic sky, blue, black, sometimes indigo, the heavens hold you until you enter the womb.

Belinda Davidson, Modern Mystic

If there were but a thing called time, I’d stretch it out like a long rope; I’d thread it through all my past lives, watch all my human drama on display, me, me, in many different forms.

I lie in bed, unwell, unable to move my body or head. Paralysed, dependent, like a newborn, or the very old. My husband hovers. I feel sorry for him; a wife that’s become a sack of wheat.

How I came to suffering blindly, choking, lungs filled with dirt—red hair, red dress, and shoes, skin the colour of thick cream, she stamps her tiny feet up on the mound that will be my grave, and the earth shudders.


What if I told you you didn’t truly love me, but her. The one who visits when you sleep, wrapping you in her blue arms, telling you she is the anima; the soulstar lover—the one whose light mirrors yours without reflection.


Love—the centrepiece, the missing piece of our life puzzle; bright, beautiful star, in pieces …

If fire is my destiny, and we’re to dance for life, how do I grasp the passion end of the straw, and leave pain hanging?


In the tradition of women in my heritage, I did all I could to hide—Red hair dyed black, green eyes dulled, mouth pursed, cheeks pinched, balled fists turning to bruise.


Stretch your face towards the wind, and feel it making love to your face, lips, cheeks, chin—
