Listening to the Waves

Standing on the pristine beach
where incessant nurturing waves
were cuddled by pink sky
And the sun and the moon
strove to attain equal status
A shift in her consciousness
just happened
Whereupon…
She instantly knew how
to listen with new ears

Exquisite Life

He experienced
a completely exquisite life
Most deeply rich in Spirit
and flavorful
Not necessarily about things
his prosperity ran like a thread
throughout his every fibre
Direct from his true Source
adding texture and color
to his own meek imaginings
And providing a constant backdrop
for his ever constant gratitude

My Friend

We met in such a casual way
and instantly I liked you
Though times, I wondered
“What the heck?”
Many more times, I’ve just enjoyed you
It seems forever we’ve been friends
an eternity I’ve known you
And in my heart such gratitude
for the opportunity to walk beside you
in appreciation of your being
Someone I can count on
this day and every one
Thank you for being my friend…

Crack the Door Open

There’s no need, dear heart
to stomp and storm
Nor declare loudly
your willingness to listen
Simply crack the door open
–that is all that’s necessary–
the light will flood through
Crack the door open
hear the symphony
in the silence
See the glorious light
throughout the dark

Sunrise of Life

Seldom seen and often heard
My heart’s dreams
rose up like daffodils
at the sunrise of my life
It was ever surprising
on this most auspicious day
in a very ordinary kind of way
A once-in-a-lifetime occurrance
each new day
Huzzah!

Moonrise

A rusty moon, full
creeping up
With puckered brow
and larger than usual
——————————-
We’ve all observed
one time or another
That intimate sight
and marvelled at the beauty
with shallowed breath
Moonrise
