Unarguably
Spirit vibrantly shines bright
Youthfulness no loss
truth
Curveball
Curveballs!
Offsets the course
Upsets the routine
Messes up the plan
What a nuisance!
Life is no smooth sail!
We can all attest to that.
But are not the trials
Opportunities to find your strengths?
Life is not without mistakes!
We have all made a few
But are not the errors
Avenues of resilience and growth?
Life is not without loss!
We have all shed a tear or two.
But are not past fortunes
Relics we hold dear?
Perhaps the curveballs
Are misconstrued.
Perhaps the curveball
Is to set the track straight
Perhaps we lost our way
And needed a pointer
Perhaps we became complacent
And required a jolt!
Before you judge the throw
Set your cap
Shuffle the dirt
And get ready to bat!
Remember you’re in the game
The play is on
And you made the team
Now let’s play……’life’!
Priceless
The mother;
That knows her child’s palate
So her child’s eyes always gleam
And hunger is stirred
Even before the first bite.
The father;
That watches dote-fully
And nudges forward
Yet stands always
As the safety net.
The lover,
That throws the wink
The unexpected kiss
Ignites all primal thirsts
And satiates in participatory manner.
The Divine,
Delivers the life force
Delicately as breath.
Stays closer than close
So that you are never alone.
All impossible to beat
And priceless in nature.
Reflections
As the butterfly you see all her alluring flutters
Yet wait awhile
As the wings are folded to rest
And she stills herself
You’ll then recognize the earlier colors
The flutters performed
Were reflections and windows
Of her inner hues and moves
In her secret place within
She finds her lover of loves
She floats in the clearest of air
She breathes in the perfume of heaven
Surfacing
How can she not
But simply shine and glow
Ooze compassion and love
Want to sing glory and praise
Of her One that showed the way.
True Nature
The puppy on the heels of the child
The flower up turned to the sun
The thunderous run of every river to the sea
The closing of your eyes to go within…
All of nature works with but one rule
To defy not its true course and character.
When nature remains unbroken
Beauty prevails and
Peace is resounding.
When we want to feel love
There needs to be no instruction for where to turn,
When we need to go home
There needs to be no signpost.
Are you true to your nature?
True to your one rule?
Do you know what it is?
It is to be in your joy
Surround yourself with those that fuel this,
It is to turn to warmth and love
And away from fire and anguish,
It is to feel love in and around you
It is to recognize your home within….
In a time when complexity is revered
Such simplicity is dismissed.
Oh how far have we strayed from our true nature?
If the guise of each label
The weight of each role,
If the barrier from each layer
Is all acknowledged as it is,
Temporary and void of ownership
Then yes, return we may
Back to our true nature
One of joy, love and peace….
Journey in Life
traveling alone
yet together , walk the path
accept, love, cherish
Smoke screens
don’t be so afraid
let down the layered smoke screens
show your true pure self
Living Composition
Rock solid backdrop
Reflective forefront blazing
Vivid hues of life
Float on by…
Move towards something
And it gets closer,
True for everything
But the clouds!
They just never
Seem to get closer!
You take a step
They take a float
Even when finally
In a hot air balloon,
Your put your whole self
Straight into its belly,
Still nothing to grasp
Nothing to hold!
Yet all the while
Still there all around!
Such is breath.
You can feel it
You can even watch it
Without it
You cannot be!
Can you hold it?
Can you bottle it?
Can you save it for a later day?
Just as the clouds
Shower a love,
So does breath
Ultimate lover’s love.
Just as the clouds
Transport droplets from air to land,
So does breath
Link strong, you and your source.
So before it’s too late
And breath floats on by,
Connect and secure
The link on your side.
Acknowledge each one
As they come and go,
Bringing the possibilities
For what it’s all about.
Love and enjoy
Acknowledge and appreciate,
Revel in gratitude
And let each breath
Be its wait in gold!
