Blessed Rain

And the rains came
when least expected
on the  cusp of a slim chance
– or was it no chance?
Tiny wisps first appeared
on the coattails of a wish and a prayer
beefed up by stormy emotions
they clanged together
The banging ring of pot lids
grew and gathered
‘til hunkered all together
to rain their blessed moisture
and slake the garden’s thirst

Gold Mining

Others may spot
a gleaming vein of your gold
long before you
 
Still…
It’s up to you
to work your own mine
 
• • •
 
Meanwhile, your spirit shines
when you least expect
 
Innocence peeking
from sparkling youthful eyes

No Pedestals

No pedestals here
neither above nor below
before nor behind
 
Simply two unique individuals
side by side
 
No pedestals here
and no glass case, either
it’s all rather simple
 
You, me
discovering together
We…

Infinite Grace

Singing the glory
of all that life is
Dancing the body
in time to the heartbeat
All is part of infinite Grace
• • •
May your day be filled
with pleasant surprises
sprinkled with joyous encounters
 and punctuated with sweet
moments of peace

Messy Blessings

“Life gets messy!”
says that voice inside 
No need to get testy
just let it ride
 
We’re each and all blessed
with the means to get through
No matter how messed
it’s all Spirit imbued

I like making messes
and cleaning them, too
I play my best guesses
and, sometimes, they work out
(Ooh, messy ending)
