~~~~~~~~~!!~~~~~~~~~~~
When seeking seek some spiritual
Me me me doesn't nestle nurturing
Me me me embellishes suffering
To see the world through grown up eyes
Or a child's innocence, which is more wise?
Selfishness may be conventional
But giving love that is intentional
Leads to a life that is much more full

Sometimes giving is what love is for
When it comes to taking, less is more

The Snow Is Falling

And the snow
continues
to fall
I hear the silence call
It whispers on a windless night
Winter wearing endless white
I listen to the quiet
Would that I could fly
It is the magic
The glad, the tragic
Flying freely I
Sighing see thee
Great the small
Oh the wonder of it all
I feel at peace
The sweet release

Wounded healer
Deep soul feeler
Kingly kneeler
Arise. Arise
Distant thunder
From over under
Washed asunder
Surprise. Surprise.
Self reliant
Dream defiant
Sleeping giant
Your eyes. Your eyes
Are opening to truth
Aged ageless youth
For Freedom forsooth
Indeed
In need
Agreed
We dance among the living
Learning loving and forgiving

~~~~~***~~~~~
Trickling rivulets of rain
Prickling minuets of pain
Play out upon the stage
A body, heart, mind and spirit
A movie made to feel it hear it
We write it page by page
We live it age to age
To light
To love
To rebirth
To Healing peace
Upon to earth

Another Christmas gone

Happy New Year
Another Christmas gone
Life goes on within
and without you
Rain soaked
Seeking shelved
Wind blown
Unknown
20 12'd
Bright hope?
New dark dawn?
Love knows we begin
By Being true
By Being
We continue on
Calm cloaked clever clear
Happy 2012 is here

What happens?

What happens
To the days
To the time
Like a stolen stipend
Like lost way's
Descending climb

I feel the waves crashing
Calling me beyond
Step in and swim
Out to see
Swim on and on and on
Straight into eternity
Or the cold dark night
Or sprout wings of fire
And soar into the light

I come to in this waking dream
So far from the sea
I listen to the drizzle rain
Sign saying let it be

Breath out the pain
And in the gratitude
Loose the loss and
Glean the gain
With loving attitude
And smile for my face likes that
Though I far too often do forget
Then I trace the thoughts back
And cast aside regret

Then I plainly plainly see
What happen's up to me

Trickle

Trickle trickle splash
Whooshing of the wind
Counting out the cash
Calling freely on a friend
To follow up on finding free
Making merry to the mile end
The time and place to let it be
We long for living on the island
We live and love whether near or far
But being on the beach by you
Is my wish upon a star
I know you feel it too
Trickle trickle splash
Whooshing of the wind
Let's just make a dash
My lover and my friend

Reflections

The crescent moon points to the evening star
I sit in the darkness and listen to the wind
It rushes and brushes the leaves and then
It waxes and wanes with the door a jar
I consider an early slumber or attempt
To lie upon the bed and take my rest
Too many nights find me on this futile quest
As sleeps eludes me as if I were exempt
Still I find an inner peace as I listen to the trees
Joy or sorrow, today, tomorrow, bless our families

~~~~~~~~~~~
It's a pearl gray day
And the rain is falling to the ground
I squeeze my eyes closed tightly
And listen to the sound
And I feel You all around me
I can hear the things You say
Sometimes shouted silently
They tell me go, they tell me stay
Is a new beginning near or is this the end
Who is the enemy here and who is the friend
So I pick up my guitar and as I sing and play
I forget these questions on this pearl gray day
In the background is the quiet cooing of a dove
Telling me it all begins and ends with Love

What a day is today
Partly cloudy, cold and sunny
Description comes to play
In ways it seems so very funny
What weather words portray

In these times of great commotion
Feelings sway like tall trees in a storm
People are much like the ocean
Calm, crazy, cold and warm
We live in times of deep emotion

We're selfish, kind, happy and sad
Partly good and partly bad
And no one gets out alive
Human kind at its best
Will all be put to the test
Are we worthy to survive

The Road We're On

Challenge me with a Bakugan
I will rise to meet the pain
We will see who will fall
And who will remain
It is only a game after all
Part of the road we're on

Trickling water, cooing dove
Outside the fast lane
And in silence I recall
Sweet comfort to attain
Everything is passing all
What is left is only love

And love will conquer all.
