A POEM IS BORN

When the heart stirs

deep within,

and a tone sounds,

primordial,

issuing forth -

pen in hand,

the mind a willing servant

to overflowing inspiration,

and in its' wake,

a Poem is born...

'THE CALLING'

The wind whispers her song.

A song of wonder and of mirth.

A song of longing to be heard,

by the faithful, by the strong,

unto them she whispers her song.

Ask not the meaning of her melody.

It is implicit, it is simplistic.

It gathers unto its own.

To dare, to be, to do, is her command

and the few that abide, are chosen.

NEW DAWN

Greet the new dawn's sunlight as you would
the light of your radiant self or that of another.
They are one and the same.

You are that light spreading your life-giving love,
as the sun shine's it's warmth upon the earth
enlivening all that it touches
in one glad embrace of its own;
knowing you but embrace yourself...

'Flower in Bloom'

We are like beautiful flowers coming into full bloom, not just here on earth but continuously in the Cosmos – an ongoing unfoldment, becoming more and more of ourselves, forever…
