Canopy of Leaves
The canopy of shivering leaves
danced the light across her face
Waking up dreams of soft spring days
followed by warm summer nights
each magical in their own way
On their own day
one moment at a time…
Child at Play
Once in a while or a day
it’s a great idea to play
to stand things on their head
or turn them around instead
Imagine, if you will
the surprises that can arise
when, with flow, you flex and turn
yet centered, in Spirit still
Whence the bottom becomes top
and the world, it flip flops
Let the child in you be awake
for the joy of it, for goodness sake…
Deja Vu
After these years together
as some sparkling new day begins
so many times I notice
it’s déjà vu all over again
Familiarity, it seems
(at least, in our experience)
causes not contemptuous lip
Instead a deepening of Love
With new eyes, I see you again
a whole new being with tender spots
and blossoming heart
Ever richer connection
Child’s Imagination
A child with great imagination
stood at the brink of insight
With a smile upon her face
eyes of wonder and mystery
softened even the toughest heart
As fantastic stories of epic proportion
flowed from her mind
tickling her lips on arrival
Spirit’s Tapestry
You are a thread…
in the tapestry of God’s presence
A note…
in the celestial symphony
of Great Spirit’s creative expression
And Great Spirit
is so in love with you
