I Saw A Leaf Wave

September 25, 2014

I saw a leaf wave
In the breeze made
By a hummingbird’s wing.

Then is when I knew
Nothing exists on it’s own
No one, no one’s alone.

One vibration
Can set in motion waves
Creating mountains
Or deep caves.

That’s what I felt
When a hummingbird’s wing
Made a leaf wave.

Why It Happened And Where

September 24, 2014

Why it happened and where
Is not, I suppose
My affair.

Doesn’t stop the questions
Doesn’t make my heart open
Willing to share.

Not my affair
Not mine, not mine
I should not care.

But I do
And I wonder what happened
Even if it’s not
My affair.

Comforting With Pleasure

September 22, 2014

Morning Glories ~ Photo by Patrice

Comforting with pleasure
So I greet the day
Forgotten are the terrors
I saw, heard yesterday.

Sunrise promises a fresh
A new wondrous day
Going forth, travelling down the path
Knowing, it’s all what I make it
On this glorious, new day.

Glorious, Glorious Is All

Glorious, glorious is all I can say
Some people are wonderful
Some people on this gracious, grand day
Make my life, my year, my month, my week
And most of all, my day.

We Are Here

We are here
There is a reason
Your life has purpose
Each phase is like
A season.

Cherish it
Live it to the full
And that just may be
The reason.

Understand Your Dreams

September 17, 2014

Understand your dreams
Listen to what they say
Hear what you must do
See what has been, what may come
Know every thought evolves from
Somewhere, something.

You dream
You dream and understand.

Rain, Pouring Rain

September 16, 2014

Spring Rain ~ Photo by Patrice

Rain, pouring rain, cold, colder still
Chills falling, falling down again
Winter’s come, pass the fall
Summer’s gone, we’ve missed it all.

One thing we can do
Is pray for spring, feel the dew
Then summer’s warmth will arrive
Holding us, in her arms once again.

See And Forgive

See and forgive
Without that we cannot live
Heart full of love, not hate
Make your world a better
Happy place.
