You opened a door
And stepped on through
Knowing full well I would follow.
Now here I am on the other side
And oh,
What a glorious sight.

Searching
In the sunlight
Of the day,
In this stillness I do
Lay
And wait to feel the
Nearness of your heart.
In the moonlight
I will play.
I will tiptoe through
The stars
Lighting up the night sky
Near and far.
Looking through sleepy eyes,
Searching for you.
I am
Still searching for you.

Open Your Door
Remember those feelings you have on a day you are struggling.
Perhaps standing still.
Perhaps crawling.
And know that others feel that way.
See them when you look around.
You will recognize them.
Instead of building walls
Against them,
Open
Your door
And step outside to meet them.
Step outside and greet them.
Offer compassion.
Offer love.
For we will never get better
If we do not
Lift each other up.
If we all choose to stay behind walls
And defenses
Alone,
We will never
Heal as people.
Alone.

A Whisper
Come along
With but a whisper.
Traverse this midnight path
In wonder.
Revel
With me in the moonlight.
Let’s go drifting into the night.
Breathe
A
Breath
And place a wish
Upon
My
Lips.
Breathe
A
Breath
Once
More
And leave me with
But
A
Kiss.

I Can’t Help It
I can’t help it.
I can’t help but fly.
Fly above the chaos that I have been
Cursing
All this time.
I did my time.
I did my time on the ground.
Now I am spreading my wings.
I am turning my life around.
And I fly
Among the Angels.
I fly
Among clouds.
I fly
Even when my feet,
They touch the ground.

Out Of Room
You
Are
All out of sorry’s.
I
Am
All out of room
To store
Them
In
My heart.

The Great Wilderness
I reopened the gate
And went out into
The
Great
Wilderness.
There I returned to the
Life
I new
As a child
And became
The
Peace
I have always carried.
For the birds welcomed me.
The wind embraced me.
The trees received me with a timeless remembering.
The dirt infused my senses with vivification.
The sky opened up in my heart
And the sun became a friend to my soul again.
I recalled this is where I belong.
There,
In
The
Great
Wilderness,
I did live
Once
More.

Kaleidoscope Reflections
There I am,
Looking at me.
Every time
Hands hiding open eyes.
Listening to your
Sighs
Of
Disapproval.
My mirrored reality
I cannot reach.
To touch.
To
Feel.
How bewildered I have become
Having life in so many
Celestial bodies.
Which one is me
In these
Kaleidoscope
Reflections?

Untrusting
After years
Of feeling
Battered and bruised,
Tired and used
She reentered the world.
Uneasy.
Hesitating with every breath.
Shaking with every step.
A little bit at a time.
Her eyes were so untrusting
For she knew what you see is very rarely,
If ever,
What you get.
Behind every smile
There might lie
A very darkened heart.
Self doubt filled her mind.
For she knew the sky was blue
But since she could remember,
She was told otherwise.
To the point where she did not believe
Her own eyes
Anymore.
Her gut in knots,
Never knowing when she might get caught in a moment of happiness
Just to have it stolen.
There she stood,
Head held high
Ready to give the world
Another try.

The Cat Meows
The cat meows.
The faucet drips.
The dogs bark at an invisible
Presence.
The branches of the tree outside
Scrape the window
As the wind blows.
My
Heart
Beats.
In Between all this
Rests
The
Silence.
Chole Into Diamonds
