Faith and Grace
at the beginning
on a new day
ripe with possibilities
and deeply founded hope
Faith was born
of the heart
in a moment which stood still
for a moment
celebration
… back to work
breathing
until
the birth of Grace
Blessings
Momma Bird
Momma bird sits
the eye of peace upon me
a pile of sticks and feathers
beneath her
gentle sky peeking
through the greenage above
A gift of love
a piece of peace
laid out before me
Minstrel
As he strummed and
plucked, the strings
responded with a
sound that could be
called sublime
Each new phase of his
development in life
was remarked in
the crafted words of his
mind
Sing on, minstrel…
Wrinkles
I discovered long ago
that my weaknesses
and wrinkles in my life,
my shadows, if you will,
are the challenges
toward glory —
The purpose of my path…
So, I’m loving all my wrinkles
nowadays, embracing my fears
as I dance with sweet abandon —
Surrender to the light
Change
Temporary
illusive
the only constant change
yet still
we try to grab on
make it last
make it stay
record it for posterity
Only love endures
only one is ever
always
Now
Greeness
Lush verdant greens fill the senses
healing hearts, soothing sight
velvet moss and delicate fern
in silence listen to water’s fall
wearing away world weariness
plummeting babble
massaging the soul
awakening now the quiet depths
within
