Heartache joyous flowing down
Releasing sadness all around.
Making love a thing of the past
Making sorrow ever last.
Melancholy thoughts abound
Swirling, twirling, I hear the sound.
Make me happy, make me see
This hardship is not my destiny.

I’ve been thinking.
Maybe I should put some of my poems into a book.
Since this would be my first attempt at such a thing, I need some help from all of you who have been so loyal to this blog of mine. That help could come in the form of letting me know your preference of my work. Which poems you like, what affirmations…
So take a look and let me know what your thoughts are.
I will be taking a brief break but will be online checking for your favourites and opinions. Thanks and waiting to hear!

Thrilled with life
And filled with vigour
That’s what should be
My infinite call.
When muse is not enough
And action can be in
The neighbourhood of overload
Tread that narrow line.
Neither slip nor fall
Walk one step closer
To the ecstasy of life
Lived on the edge of it all.

We are here. Are we not?
Full of fear? I hope not.
Full of love? How profound.
Working Hard? Hear the sound.
You and I, we are here.
Look around.

The answer came to me
Not in a flash of light
Nor as a wave crashing in the night
That those past lives lived
Come to us in a way
So simple and so straight away
They come in our DNA.
We remember things gone by
And don’t know why
But the reason is
They are in our DNA.
Such as when you think
You’ve been here before
Think again
For you have been
It’s all written in your DNA.
They tell us what we need
What will make us pleased
It’s all there in our DNA.
When you think you’ve been
In this situation once again
It’s most likely true
The blueprints shows us
Thru and thru all that’s written
There in our DNA.
Why we laugh and grin
Why we cry and don’t know why
The answer is in no other place
It’s our saving grace
There within for eons been
Hidden in our DNA.

The world is a better place
Because of you
And a saving grace
That which is embedded
In each and every place
we chose to live and grow.
See your place now filled
with melancholy lavender
And smell the fragrance
As you sink into that special space
Embraced by a living
Loving, saving grace
Knowing, this is a better place
The best place in this world
Only, because of you.

Once more I write 2013. Still strange and scary in some way.
Gone, lost, done is the 2012 year.
Whatever I had wanted to accomplish in that year
I did – or – I didn’t.
It has ended now and I can’t change one bit of it.
Regrets? Yes.
Devastating? Most certainly.
Truly heart-warming? Yes, and much more.
Now I must move on, make this new year the best that I can.
Will I have setbacks and heartache?
Most likely.
But I know I will also have experiences that will take me to the top.
Joy, happiness, success and most of all, love.
This I know because I will make it so.
This is my plan. My resolution for this new year.
Come join me, make it your best year yet. Filled with happiness, love and those wonderful experiences that will carry you thru any dark days that do occur.
And be assured, they will happen.
But change that negative, find something positive in even those dark moments.
Make the world a better place because you were here and chose to do so.
Shall we start?

The morning rises sun in tow
Showing all a new way to go
Follow the path
Down to the road
That takes you
Where you can behold
Wonders beyond your imagination
Wonders all untold.
Follow your imagination
Guided by your intuition
On that trail
Meant for you alone to go
See things that you can accomplish
See things that others can also do
Make this year a wonder
As the morning rises there
Above of you.
