I feel a heart beating
Here in my own heart
I feel a sadness blue
I know I’ve lost a time
When I lost
Lost you
Moved on
But every now and then
I think
And that’s when
I find myself
Missing you.

I Feel A Heart Beating

Life Holding Me
November 4, 2021
Sometimes
I feel life holding me
embracing, protecting me
Then
I’m invincible
then I can do anything
Yes
when life is holding me.

The Snow Comes
November 3, 2021
The snow comes
It does blow
Winter’s breath is cold
Cold
Cold
In the spring
Blizzards are forgotten
With the dawning of warmth
And
The beauty
Growing flowers bring
Melting into summer
Hot, humid
Splashing in warm water
Watching waves wash
To and fro
Fall doesn’t matter
For it seems dying
Is
The main thing
But
Really nothing dies
Only preparing
For a long hibernation
That winter winds
Will
Soon bring.

Leaves Falling
November 2, 2021
Leaves falling
Leaving all the ground
Covered
With
A quiet sound.
Breezes
Stirring leaves
Here and there
Falling from branches
Now left bare.
Thru the winter
All quietens down
Passing storms bring
The only sound
Of
Branches cracking
Blowing down.
In the spring
Life will come
Bright and warm
On
Into summer’s sun.
Til
Full circle in the fall
Once again
We’ll see
Leaves fall.

Seeking Help
November 1, 2021
Seeking help, seeking closure
seeing the way
with the vision
from all
that
surround me.
Grateful, amazed
that
this could happen
be
my salvation
within, around
and
enveloping me.

Did You See Me?
October 29, 2021
Did you see me?
Were you able to tell me
All that needs to be said
All that is held close
No heartache, no dread.
Did you see me?
Did you feel my heart skip a beat
My breath intake
When I looked
Looked at all the beauty.
Did you see me?
Will you help me
Climb into the highest sky
Gliding thru heavy laden clouds
Knowing all will be well
Breathing in, breathing out.
Did you see me?

I Write The Words That Come
October 28, 2021
I write the words that come
I see them in their entirety
some are in colour
others grey
altogether they make
the words I write
I say.
Tomorrow
they’ll be different
they’ll say something I never thought of
not til that instant
when they came and I wrote
wrote what they told me
to say.

Holy Smokes, Holy Cow
October 27, 2021
Holy Smokes, Holy Cow
The world it turns
It revolves
But
Not around me
No
Not at all.
It may tomorrow
Or
The day after that
And
You know
I’m not sure
Where it turned
Way far back.
The only thing
I do know,
I see
Is that it turns
And
I take the ride
The ride for free.

Horrors Be
October 26, 2021
Horrors be
can’t take them
away
away from the head
they stay
mentally.
The body will heal
but
the spirit, the soul
keep
those things into
eternity.
We know we must
must let them
go
throw them away
don’t let them
crush
your spirit
your kind soul.
Today, just today
let them go
no more in your head
to fester
create dread
let them go, let them go
instead.

Crises Come
October 25, 2021
Crises come
then
they go
Hold
on tight
Stay
the course
Go
with the flow.
