I See

I See

i see you

sitting on the curb

traffic blowing by

shirt pulled over

your low hung head

wearing your distress

i see you

your divine spark

the one you’ve forgot

would you receive

could you see what I see

would you believe

we are one

you and me

we and the family

in the dumpster

in the sun

with little ones in their stroller

thinking they deserve no better

were i to show you

you are precious

would you be blessed

or just dismiss it

all of us are family

with the old man

walking down the street

wearing age before your time

using anything

to kill the pain inside

wearing your hatred

of yourself with pride

you are divine

just as I am

though you’ve forgotten

still I see

were I to shine

would you see light

or turn away and hide

these and more i see

and angels comfort leave

praying one day

they will see

all divine are we

one family

precious gifts

are what

I See

Come With Me

Come With Me

come with me

won’t you come

to meadow sweet

where tall grass 

dances with the wind

where flowers lay out color

like artist palette

where Sun drenches

all things

in perfect Love

and rainbows come to rest

come with me

won’t you come

and dance

spinning like tops

till we dizzy drop

giggling all the while

making angel patterns

with our forms

come with me

won’t you come

run and play

stay the day

in meadow sweet

from worlds retreat

just you and i

breathe in crisp air

place flowers in our hair

blow kisses

to the fishes

laughing at us

from the creek

come with me

won’t you come

spread our wings

and soar above

race the birds

up in the sky

dip and tag

the tree tops high

and sing with stars

when night does come

in chorus with

illusive owl

come with me

won’t you come

and share

the wonder

the magic

the fun

come with me…

Spring Blooms Eternal

Spring Blooms Eternal

Spring blooms eternal

for all to see

bursting forth

new growth

to joy and reverie

pushing through

winters harsh terrain

raising planetary frequency

dotting landscape

near and far

with hues of green

and palettes of color

Spring blooms eternal

for all to see

spring dwells

in heart swells

resonating from love

where love resides

winter cannot hide

for

Spring Blooms Eternal

Into My Thoughts

Into My Thoughts

you came into my thoughts today

and settled in my heart

so I said a prayer that you were well

and wished you happiness

then sent I angels to guard your way

and love ~ that you could smile

joy and peace to fill your life

with a kiss upon your cheek

it must have been just what you needed

for you smiled, eyes glistened

and you were gone in an instant

wishing all the same for me

Judgment Throne

Judgment Throne

Yo! You in the chair

in your “group”

with your judgmental stair

making it clear

without saying a word

you judge me unworthy

your space to share

I hear from the mic

yours is a church group

and you wonder why

so many have left behind

the church and religion

its dogma and tradition

while you sit on your own

self made throne

judging others

to make yourself feel better

you’re sleeping with your secretary

while your wife drinks down

medication with her booze

hoping to drown

the pain and the stains

of a cheating husband

and friend sitting there

sharing in your judgment

is too addicted to his porn

to hold his relationship

and he’d never admit

he enjoys women and men

so sit there on your

judgment throne

‘cause I don’t accept it

I live in honesty

in truth and in love

something you forgot

long long ago

I choose to live love

to wear truth

and leave the judging

to someone else

for there’s far too many of you

willing to do it

I’m flawed and I know it

not afraid to show it

I love myself

‘cause my creator created me

from love, in love, for love

and though you sit

on your judgment throne

I want you to know

I’m sending you love

‘cause honey, you need it

you got none of your own

and the beauty of love

 is there’s always enough

so I send you this message

in hopes you can hear it

and allow yourself

real love to receive it

maybe then you can

come down off that throne

you’ve designed

and enjoy living a life

of honest, of truth

and love divine

My Paradise

My Paradise

oh that eyes

would open wide

see what is

what wants to be seen

that mind would stop

its mindless chatter

that noise would shush

be still ~ be silent

let me hear

beyond my ears

perceive the singing

of stars

and shimmer

of moonlight

oh that heart

would still its beat

capture love’s whisper sweet

that blood would coarse

melodically

to nature’s rhythm

gently beat

that I in all the moment

would be

drink in the reverence

of existence

oh that eyes

would open wide

and stir the course

to turn the tide

and navigate

from clamor and chaos

and draw me closer

to my bliss

my paradise

of unity

where all is

simplicity

that there I

may simply

BE

washing away the grime

built up over time

erasing the pain

cleansing the soul

nourishing new hope

The Caterpillar

The Caterpillar

this morning as I sit

in the stillness of the moment

into my presence

comes the caterpillar

not remarkable to look upon

a simple and humble being

yet as I am aware

he speaks lesson that I hear

of walking in the way

one is created to be

not running ahead

not lagging behind

traveling the path

in just the right time

no fear of the moment

cocoon is to envelop

providing for transformation

no regrets for not being

any other than he be

content in his creation

complete in his design

and very simply

in his being

he, my heart reminds

to travel my path

living life on time

embracing transformation

content in my creation

complete in my design

a simple and humble being

just as

Of Love ~ Healing and Peace

Of Love ~ Healing and Peace

I awaken to see

the world around me

crying out for healing

crying out for peace

whilst they slumber

those who remember

ignite from within

points of light

no longer hidden

radiating love

resonating peace

healing the whole

of the being we be

awakened from your sleep

by a ripple on the sea

gentle waves sent forth

of love ~ healing and peace

I am drawn

unto the reality

unfurling prismatic Wings

In the Magic of Embrace

In the Magic of Embrace

there is powerful magic

as two embrace

no walls between them

only the energy

their essences create

sharing from their hearts

divine love of their souls

giving and receiving

the love

which created them

more than just a hug

a magical embrace

in which the finiteness

of humanity

drifts away

and the infinity

of the universe

stops all time

that the gift

of these moments

may be

forever captured

~ in the magic of embrace

Inspire

Inspire

I was asked today

from where my inspiration came

what was it that caused me to write

about such things I hadn’t thought

it came so clearly in that moment

it was my escape from sore abuse

abuse I grew up in and married the same

writing allowed me to dream of pretty things

of place and lives where fear didn’t reside

of love that was true and not cruel

a place where love words were spoken

replacing those of inadequacy and unworthiness

with one question I realized

escape sprung forth from this pen of mine

and now I am free of that which inspired me

now my inspiration lies in speaking my truth

sharing emotions which spring from my heart

taking joy in the love when it touches another

praise and fortune are not what I seek

to know that I inspired and touched someone

made their life brighter this fills my needs

what inspires you? what brings you to life?

think on these things, figure out your why

then dare to dream it ~ believing you can

get out there and do it ~ go on 

Inspire

In This Day

In This Day

moon illuminates the clouds

creating ripples of silver

on darkness’s background

only wind is awake

to converse with me

in the silence before daybreak

and I this time do take

to just simply BE

before the expectations

of yet another day

I receive these moments

just to breathe

I watch sun rise

paint the sky shades of pink

kiss the moon good morning

and I this day do greet

sun and moon both shine on me

each their own loving frequency

bidding me this day receive

all the gifts love wishes for me

that I may fully know

the beauty of presence

Where Is Joy

Where Is Joy

where is Joy?

where has she gone?

my inner child

stands cyring ~ screaming

to find her once again

where has she gone

it’s been so long

since I have seen her

where could she be

it’s a mystery to me

how life got in the way

I hear a voice

to my inner child say

stop making so much noise

be still and look this way

see Joy in the love

of your family and friends

see Joy in the touch

of a lovers hand

see Joy in the birds

singing sweetly in the trees

see Joy in the sunrise

shining light on all your dreams

Joy never left you dear

you simply lost her in your fears

Joy is always all around you

push your fears aside

embrace Joy once again

as this truth does settle in

my inner child starts to grin

laughter erupts as Joy embraces

and we set off for brighter places

Joy, my inner child, and my self

I Am a Poet

I Am a Poet

I am a poet

I let the rhythm flow

I let the beating of my heart

tell the story of my soul

I capture life at its essence

paint its picture with words

caress the cortex of your brain

with the lines of each verse

yes I am a poet

just doing my best

to share this God given gift

cause I know that I must

follow the dream

that I dream

be the me

I am supposed to be

for I am a poet

I live ~ I breathe

poetry

every thought from the heart

ends up poetic prose

why I even speak in rhyme

without conscious thought of why

cause

I am a poet

I see the love

that ushers peace

from which joy flows

yes the view from here

is lovely dear

as your heart pours forth

sweet gratitude

so hold my hand

as this journey

we tread

‘cause the view from here

is lovely dear
