Solely knowing the past, present
and the distant future
are one.
They are my life, my breath
and
my soul.
Let it be good
let it leave a lasting impression
on those that know.
This life I’m living
this life
this, the only one I’ll ever know.

Pleasantly helping, pleasantly being
the most my world
my life, myself
can be.
There’s no better one to know
then me
there’s nothing I want, desire
except to be.
The one who loves
cares and sees
beauty in all life and pleasantly being
all I can be.

Did you see?
Did you see the beauty
Reigning all around me?
Did you see the magnificence
Holding me
Embracing me?
Did you see the soul
Who told me
I was loved unconditionally?
Did you see, did you see?

I feel your presence
Your breath softly
Falling in and out
I hear your call
Your mournful voice
Reaching out
I remember
Your presence here
Now gone
I miss you
I miss you so
My love
You’re all
All
I think about.

A hummingbird came to my window
today
not seen since
in the fall
when they all
flew away.
Sweet nectar she’s looking for
needs right away
hovering, looking in
she tells me.
Get it ready!
Get it ready!
Get it ready right away!
The little hummingbird
is
hungry
she’s flown such a distance
from far
far away.
Now needs
some sweet substance
til
all the blooms
are
on display.
A hummingbird came to my window
and
told me all this
just this morning
just today.

Tremendous
the feeling of giving
giving love
support
and
everything
needed to make
life lived
in
peace and harmony.
Tremendous it is
to give, to give.

I’m participating in WWF’s Run to Restore Nature, and today is the first day!
I’m running 2.5 kms each day for the next 4 days, to raise funds to help create a world where nature and people thrive and live in harmony.
I’d really love your support to help me reach my fundraising goal of $75.00.
Every dollar raised helps to conserve species at risk, protect threatened habitats, and address climate change.

Bright and sunny
is the day
excited, anticipating
such a brilliant, wondrous day
Let’s play! Let’s play!

I saw a chipmunk sleeping lazily
Enjoying the day
Quietly.
I saw a dog splashing
Playing in the water
All alone.
I saw a deer eat seeds
From my deck
Secretly.
I saw a tree fall
Smashing all.
I saw ants marching across sand
With a leaf in their mouth
They ran.
I saw a dog cry
Mourning the loss of one
Who’d died.
I saw a tree upside down
How could this be?
I saw a bumblebee sip nectar
Quietly.
I saw a fawn cry
Plaintively.
I saw a stingray fly
Majestically.
I saw a crocodile up close
So scary.
I saw life abound
But none, not a soul, no one
Saw me around.

When I look out to sea
I see you looking
looking back over
just at me
The waves roll in
and
back out again
bringing with them
a message from overseas
a message
you sent just for me
In my thoughts I touch your lips
say words of love
then send them
on the wind
over water, overseas
to you with love
just from me.

Lifting up my head
my arms, my heart
seeing all that could be
seeing nothing
that is
empty, lost.
Maybe tomorrow
in the early morning light
all the answers I seek
will be before me
holding me
with unprecedented love
oh so very tight.
