b20 (7.5-3.2003): the hero rhymes within

the hero rhymes within [1]

we’re having fun and feeling fine
although this poem – it doesn’t rhyme
it doesn’t matter if we win
because the hero rhymes within

__________________________

 
·        the above poem was written (in less than 60 seconds) as part of our annual “Femino Family Reunion,” during the  “scavenger hunt” event.
 
·        the martineau clan had to find 10 items, and #10 was “a four-line poem that rhymes.”
 
·        sidenote: we (the martineaus) “won” the scavenger hunt, in a tie-breaking “challenge” by putting on a one-minute song and dance routine (to “jingle bells”).

poem analysis, two years later, 6-17-05:
 

• the True Self resonates within each of us, in a Real World where earthly victories and defeats do not matter, because this Real World is One of no-matter.

 

• this Real World is a Uni-Verse, a Singing Vibration of Loving Energy, expressed as infinite reflections of Light, interpreted (on the earth plane) as the dual world.  in Reality, it’s All One.

 

• this Real World can be “Connected with” (in glimpses, here), usually via art, song, meditation, creativity, massage, poetry, dance, etc. -- when love guides us toward Unity and Harmony.

 

• think about it: at times when you have glimpsed this “Unified Other World,” haven’t you been in an altered state of some kind?  this (loving) feeling emits a sense of Perfection, when everything seems “right.”  some people call these moments “Aha!” moments.

 

• anyway… the Way to the True Self is an inner journey.   someday, we’ll re-Member that, like dorothy (in the wizard of oz), this wasn’t really a Real journey… at All.

 
note: the word “hero” contains the dual-opposite words “he” and “her” while also containing the symbol of unity and one-ness “o”.   inside each of us is an apparent paradoxical dichotomy: the apparently separate self is a Unified Self.  this Self is the watcher of the Movie, the player in the Play, the dancer in the Dance.  no-thing else is Really Real. 
 
every-One is a Hero.
