MolinaSoleilLetters to the Moon Pt. II (Omnipresent Stream) appears on the album Sacred Paths by Asia Jazz Project featuring Molina Soleil & Aju (2009)
I wrote five Letters to the Moon during a journey through northern Europe in November 2008. Three of these poems became compositions on Sacred Paths.
This Letter was written near a small town maybe 30 miles or so south of Dublin, Ireland. I can’t recall the name of the town, but I remember the day well. I remember the way the pen felt in my hand, the coldness of my fingers as a I scribbled the ocean’s words.
I was not sure exactly what I was doing in Europe, or what I was doing in that particular city at that moment. But I was supposed to be there, alone, a feeling that shadowed me every
where I traveled.
I fell in love.
It was some combination of personal relationships past and present, reflections on lessons, acceptance and forgiveness of self and others, recognition of the unseen: stunning clarity of all that I am, beyond me.
She became everything that day. She presented herself as all she would be, eternally.
I did not want to leave her. I knew I did not have to. I would write her story again.
