The cover of darkness
Has been rolled back
Slowly, so slowly light creeps
Into the day
Til the sun shines bright
Giving light, lighting each way
To everyone, everything
Each and everyday.

The Cover Of Darkness
December 29, 2015
Had A Dream Today
December 23, 2015Had a dream today
All my problems they just floated away
No need to agonize
No time to feel remorse
Immersed in happiness my course
Set far from sadness
Can’t remember any heart retching tale
Only gladness on this happy trail.

So Much Is Required
December 11, 2015
So much is required
So little to give
Delve deep down
Deep down and dig.
Bring forth all that’s buried
Dig down and live.
Live in the moment
Not in the past
Dig down find the way
That gives joy now
Dig down, dig deep
Nothing required
Except to live.

Heaven Helped
December 9, 2015
Heaven helped, heaven loved
Nothing lost for that is love.
Holding close, holding tight
Living in it’s radiance tonight.

Scarifice Nothing
December 8, 2015
Sacrifice nothing
Don’t let it go
Hang onto something
Let the winds blow pass
All around you
Let them go
Keep that, those you care for
Close and together
Never ever, despair.
Sacrifice nothing
Act like you have nothing
Not a care
Cause I know and will share
That the world will hold
Envelope you
In it’s gentle
Loving care.

When I Try To Understand
November 30, 2015
When I try to understand
Sometimes
The way is not so clear.
Should I take a step behind
Or move forward
So to be near
To the heart of the matter
The source of my dilemma?
Sometimes the way
My way
Is not so clear.

Herald The Coming Storm
November 27, 2015
Herald the coming storm
Dark of night enveloping
With mighty might
Crossing over land
Thundering
Making creatures cringe
While most don’t understand.
Here I am
Waiting, watching, listening
Holding on
As the coming storm
Keeps coming on.

Dangerous Messages
November 25, 2015
Dangerous messages lying in repose
Waiting for the time
When damage can be imposed.
Nothing right, all is wrong
No recourse
The words too strong.
Those dangerous messages now litter the throng
Holding hostage all that’s good
Ruling with what is wrong.
Sadness part of the hour
Part of the one holding
Dangerous messages changing the world
All around.

I Don’t Know, I Don’t Know
November 24, 2015
I don’t know, I don’t know
How the world turns
Or where storm clouds go
I don’t know, I don’t know.
I don’t know, I don’t know
Why everything has an enduring spring
A cascading fall in between
Summer hot or cold, white winter falling
I don’t know, I don’t know.
I don’t know, I don’t know
Which one shows me life to live
Steps to take through it all
I don’t know, I don’t know.

Conscious Of Nothing
November 20, 2015
Conscious of nothing
Enveloped in a vacuum of nothing
Echo, hollow resounded on nothing.
Then
Kindness opens up the earth to everything
Making the world mine to believe and enjoy.
Nothing is left behind
But
Cared for by everything.
