You have a lifetime.

Bring Your Heart
July 26, 2019
Bring your heart to the fight
Let it show strength isn’t all that wins
Wins the fight.

Decisions
July 23, 2019
Decisions to make
Change my life as I know it
Must make no mistake.
Decisions I make
Will be what I live with
A lot is at stake.
Decisions
Decisions to make.

Deep In The Rest
June 28, 2019
Deep in the rest of sleep tonight
My soul does dream so vividly
Life is full, time is dear
Honoured by those held so near.
I awaken rested, never knowing
Time has passed
Troubles solved and circumstance
Seems not to be the threat I feared
So horribly.
No one drew or threw a veil
Upon my sight
Just goodness does
And will prevail.
I slumber now in perfect rest
No concern, no distress
Awakening to light cascading down
Upon my life where goodness
Does and will abound.

The Heart Does Pound
June 27, 2019
The heart does pound
Breath does breathe
Sun rises and the moon
Seeks to shine light
On a darken place.
No one lives all alone
Everyone has a life
Everyone lives
Within their own space.

Keep Them Secret
June 24, 2019
I mustn’t tell
The things I know
Keep them secret
No one else
Should ever know.
Let them be
Secrets known only
To me
Don’t let the world see
These secrets
I keep inside of me.

My Face
June 14, 2019
Each morning now I greet a face
A stranger, I don’t remember
Back in time or space
An older woman surprises me in the mirror
Each morning, when
I wash her face.
When did she get here?
When did she arrive?
When did she replace that young girl?
Who greeted me in the mirror
As I
Washed her face.
Glad she’s here
Glad she survived and got thru
All the world put on her plate
When I think about it
I’m glad she took that young girl’s place
The one who used to
Wash my face.

Known, Unknown
May 30, 2019
Known is not known
Known anywhere
Bright, airy time goes by
Changing, blending caring
Not caring whether we know
What’s to come
Or why things were done
It’s unknown that known
To come.

I Journey To My Home
May 24, 2019
I journey to my home
The place where I was born.
Memories past, life I did before
Some heartache, some laughing then and now.
I journey to the place
I was born, I journey home.

Butterfly
May 17, 2019
Butterfly
From my window I see you fly
Crossing by
Butterfly
Your beauty is exquisite
Coloured a wondrous earthy brown
Butterfly
Never growing old
Nor flying far away
Butterfly
In winter’s frozen cold
You fly, butterfly
Butterfly
Etched forever in cedar wood
My very own
Butterfly
Thou I imagine one day you will come alive
Flying with other butterflies
Butterfly
To far away places, warm, full of beauty
Butterfly fly
Butterfly
That’s when I’ll say goodbye
To my precious wooden
Butterfly.
