I have walked
I have seen
The most beautiful
Beauty
I could imagine
Ever seen
No hidden flaws
No nasty seams
Just exquisite beauty
This world
Me
Have ever seen.

I Have Seen

I Should Not Believe
December 8, 2021
I know
I should not believe
That all is well
That’s just make believe
Time has come
To stand still
Feel the earth move
See reality
Ugly, beauty
All of it understood
Accepting, unconditionally
Still believing
In the grace of God
Forever
I will believe.

I Have Heard The Voices Call
December 7, 2021
I have heard the voices call
sound so mournful
I remember, I recall
Voices soft, a haunting trill
makes my heart race
even now, even still
One day I may too
join their voices singing
such a sweet refrain
But until then
I will be in awe
of such loving sounds singing
echoing, all around.

I Know
December 6, 2021
I know
my heart is broken
I know
life has stood still
I know
I must move forward
I know
my head, my heart, my legs, my feet are standing still
I know
that anguish will be a ever present
I know
that tears will flow
I know
I know
but still
still
I love you so.

Needing Forgiveness
December 2, 2021
Falling down
Needing forgiveness
Falling down
Because of you
I need no other
I only need
The likes of you.
You will show me
The way
To redemption
The path to forgiveness
As
I see how forgiveness
Has
Forgiven you.

The Heart Is Torn
December 1, 2021
The heart is torn
The soul cries
Tears rain down
From
Sadden eyes.
No more is known
None do care
All alone
Filled with despair.

I Don’t Know The Answer
November 30, 2021
I don’t know the answer
nor the question
I was asked
I’m living with
what has happened
what has come to pass
Will it still be here tomorrow
will it be all I need
I need to ask
No answers come forth
because the answers
are hidden
Hidden deep
deep within
the questions asked.

First Snowfall Brings Brightness And Clarity
November 29, 2021
First snowfall brings
Brightness and clarity to my life
Looking at things covered in white
Sleeping now
Thru the winter night.
To awaken
All new, fresh and bright
Once spring’s breezes melt
This
Winter’s white.
For now I see oh so clearly
What the universe wants me to know
I’m part of all life,
All seasons
Spring, summer, fall
and
Especially winter’s white snowfall.

Been
November 26, 2021
As I sit here thinking
Of what is to be
And been
My mind wanders to things
That have passed, have been.
There are no memories
As strong as those
That I’ve lived
Been part of
Those that have been.
Future dreams that I’ll be living
Won’t be nothing
Won’t be memories til
They’ve passed thru my living
Going into what has been.
