You Tell Me Things
September 23, 2024
You come to me
You tell me things
I can’t comprehend
Nor
Understand.
It seems those things
Those that you
Tell me
Are beyond
My knowledge, my reasoning
Nothing
That I know of
Or
Understand.

No One Seems To Know
September 20, 2024
No one seems to know
nor do they understand
the way to heaven
is always open
That
it’s there
Always
at their command.

Let Go Of My Heart
September 19, 2024
Let go of my heart
Let it be safe, warm
Beating
Inside of me
Let it not
Feel any hurt or angry
Only love, tenderness
And
Especially
Happy
Let it
Beat, beat, beat
Let it be.

You Are With Me
September 18, 2024
You are with me
I feel you near
you will be here
til
the angels call you to them
Can you hear?
I touch your lips, your hand
I see your eyes
they’ve become distant
in their gaze
I’m sure
they don’t see me
standing here
Lie in peace
lay down with love
for we’ll keep you in our hearts
we’ll keep you near
til our time too has come
Oh my sweet
sweet dear.

The Beginning
September 16, 2024
Focus on
the beginning
not
the end.
Let your mind travel
down the path
navigating all bends.
Know your journey
starts
at the beginning
and ends when you see
that blazing light.
When
your gentle soul leaves this earth
when she takes
that
loving flight.

I’ll Be There
September 14, 2024
I’ll be there on the wind
Whispering
You’ll hear my voice
As you walk down the quiet hall
Laughing.
I’ll be there
When you graduate
Applauding
And
Do not hesitate, do not wait
For
I’ll be there
With you
In all your accomplishments
When you’re sad
Alone and just a little mad
To comfort you, see you thru
I’ll be there
When things get hard
When you don’t know
Where to end, where to start
To give you all my strength
Help you see your path
Your lane
I’ll be there
And
When you too
Pass thru Heaven’s Gate
When your time has come
I’ll greet you
I’ll be there.

A Hummingbird Came
September 13, 2024
A hummingbird came
he sat
on the stair
his words were luscious
I knew he was there.
The beat of his wings
the flow of his heart
moved me to tears
I bowed down
I cried
I cried a lot.
For no more til spring
will I hear those sounds
as snow falls
baring down
on a land bleak
where
no hummingbird sounds.
Then
the snow will melt
the heavens wake
and
on his journey back
the hummingbird makes.

In A Spot
September 12, 2024
You place me
in a spot
I don’t want to be.
I struggle to be
somewhere else
somewhere sunny, happy
somewhere
where I want to be.
You don’t control me
you can’t make me
something that I’m not
I don’t want to be.
So I’ll let you go
I’ll move beyond your control
and not be
in a spot
I don’t want to be.

No More Can I
September 11, 2024
No more can I
be
the one that stands
in front of
thee
Protects you from the evil
festering
beneath the filthy sea
the cursed land
that your heart stands upon
longing
to be free
No more can I do this and be
I’m pleading
free yourself from all this trouble
harming you
please, please
break your own self
free.
