Transformative Play

Were not your creations
only limited
by your creative mind –
if you tried something out
and it was not to
your liking –
could you not
return to the
ball of clay
that was ready
to be formed
into something new?

And can you connect
with this sense of play –
can you be
as pliable
as the ball of clay –
open and ready
to be formed
by your creative mind
that is connected
to your soul?

Would it not be easier
to try something new
if you could be
in the moment
of creating
and not as concerned
with the outcome
or what the expectation
may be?

Is not your body
here to experience
the creative forces
of your consciousness –
do you not need
pushing and prodding
at times to transform
in a different way?

And if the ball of clay
gets hard to form –
if it is not as flexible
as it used to be –
does it not begin
to come back to life
when you work the clay
and begin to play
with it once again?

Peel off the lid.
Take out the dough.
And with the play
of a child –
begin to push,
prod,
and shape –
creating something new
with the Joy
in your heart.

Play and create
with Love.
