I Am not my Story

Posted on by

I am not my old story
a story that was simply
my perception
in that particular
moment in time.

By approaching life
from a different perspective
the old story melts away
and I create a new story
in a new reality
that serves me in this moment.

And with each new
expanded perspective
my story changes
freeing me to experience
a more loving
and joyous life.

Limitations

Posted on by

Sometimes the Universe
puts an extra spin on something
we’ve put out into the world
and it doesn’t turn out
the way we expected.

Instead a new wave of energy
carries us forward
Ah those sneaky expectations
how limiting they are.

Miracles of Love

Posted on by

Step out of your worrisome life
beyond the deception of your human mind
into the wisdom of your heart
embracing all that Love imparts.

Live your life in the stream of creation
in abundance, infinite and free
partnering with Spirit in every moment
exploring the wonders and spender of life.

Live and create from the power of your truth
residing within the mystery of your heart
turn all your dreams into gold
in the cauldron of love, peace and joy.

Divine Love is the substance of miracles
expressing through you and me
stir your heart’s cauldron of miracles
and watch how easily love abounds.

Miracles, all these miracles
miracles surround us
miracles of Life.

Miracles, all these miracles
Miracles of Love abound.

Rose of Sharon

Posted on by

Petals unfurl in the shimmering mist
in velvet folds, soft and rich
droplets of dew shine like pearls
on you, the rose of Sharon.

Your fragrance fills the air so sweet
wafting across hills and vales
in the rapture of morning’s light
you, the rose of Sharon.

It hasn’t always been this way
a life of velvet and sweet perfume
many a blossom failed to open
as the rose of Sharon.

Thorns appear where never planned
at the time it may bring tears
but in the end tears turn to dew
crowning the rose of Sharon.

Now your petals unfurl in the sun
dancing in the sway of the breeze
sweet and sensual, fragrant and free
you, the rose of Sharon.

You’re the rose of Sharon
a beautiful rose of Sharon
Love embodied, radiant light
a beautiful, beautiful rose.

Love embodied, radiant light
a beautiful, beautiful rose.
a beautiful rose of Sharon.

“Consumed by Love” or “The Beloved One”,

Treasures of the Heart

Posted on by

Show us the treasures of your heart
turn the lock with the key of love
show us the treasures hidden deep
and bring them into the light of day

How long have you held them there
hidden safely in your care?
Nurtured daily with angel’s breath
just awaiting to join the rest.

Seeds are planted in our minds
joining Spirit as one of a kind
co-creation at its best
a precious jewel truly blessed.

Glorious gifts you have to share
with all the world if you dare
when you’re ready no matter when
with open arms we’ll celebrate them.

Share with us the treasures of your heart
all your precious, precious treasures.

Song of the Soul

Posted on by

I sing from the depth of my heart
A song that’s the voice of my soul.

There’s so much to say
So much to express from within
Long unheard and suppressed
Yearning to open and sing.

I open up and there I hear
A voice that surges with joy
Free to express, free to expand
Fully embracing life.

It’s here I find passion sublime
Overriding my fears
Here all my dreams await
A playground so long denied.

Songs of the soul, songs of the heart
Songs of wisdom and dreams
Songs of love, songs of joy
Songs that are bursting to sing.

I sing from the depth of my heart
A song that’s the voice of my soul
I sing………
I sing the songs of my soul.

Spell of Love

Posted on by

Every morning when you awaken
feel my arms wrapped around you
at night as you drift asleep
there I await you
through the day I hover around you
making sure you’re safe and well.

I’m your ego tried and true
always been here to carry you through
just like children we fought each other
each one wanting our own way
getting nowhere we’ve finally matured
to see our errors and mend our ways.

Now it’s time for me to step aside
to the truth of who you are
all your wishes are granted now
since you cast a spell of love on me
You are my beloved
you are the Beloved One.

Shall we dance hand in hand
in perfect union step by step
to the music of the Divine
all in perfect harmony
You are my beloved
together we are Beloved.

Let’s splash our colors across the page
sing our songs all day long
may our light shine out in the world
to be all we can be.
You are my beloved.
you are the Beloved One.

Together we are Beloved.

Through the Gate

Posted on by

Long nights, short days
transcend us deep into the mystical haze
where realms overlap and magic awaits
I hear my soul calling, “Step through the Gate.”

My quiet footsteps stir the light
that bursts around me amazingly bright
sprinkles of stardust fill the sky
and the child within me knows it can fly.

Memory’s a mystery that lives in our dreams
but the life we’re living isn’t what it seems
we’ve all been walking a fictional fate
outside the walls of our sacred garden gate.

Tune your ears and open your eyes
to the unseen world where the truth resides
an open heart is all that it takes
to enter the garden and step through the gate.

This garden is your home, no need to wait
you’re a creator and it’s time to create
your fingers are itching to express who you are
as pure Divine essence from the depth of your heart.

Rainbows of color and your pot of gold
no longer buried in the legends of old
the garden sings stories yet untold
where Love is eternal and abundance flows.

This is your story this is your life
spilling forth in wonder beyond your sight
this is your song, sing it with glee
because it’s everything you’ve wanted to be.

This is your story, this is your life
once you step through the gate of Love.

Step off the Pedestal

Posted on by

Step off the pedestal
into the mystery of life
beyond the perceptions
of the human mind

Step into the grotto
of love, peace and joy
residing within
the depth of your heart

Birth all your dreams
in your garden of eden
live and create
from the power of your truth

Step into the Cosmos
the stream of creation
live in abundance
unlimited and free

Partner with spirit
out in the world
exploring all the wonders
and magnificence of life

Step off the pedestal
into the mystery of life
into a new reality
of expanded consciousness

Step off the pedestal
into the only thing that’s real
Step off the pedestal
into Love.

Sister Gaia

Posted on by

From the depth of the earth to the height of the mountains
From the turbulent sea to the gentle rain
From the dark of night to the brilliant sun
From the quiet stillness to the roar of the wind
It matters not, for I love it all.
Oh my sister Gaia,
I bring my love to you,
I love it all.

When I walk the earth love seeps from my feet
As I pocket special rocks along the path
I am a caretaker of plants and trees
Grateful to share their abundance
How much matters not, for I’m so grateful for it all.
Oh my sister Gaia,
I bring my love to you,
I love it all.

I roam with the animals open to their wisdom
Soar with birds free in spirit
I attune to the earth with my blessings of song
Playing in gentle harmonies.
Oh my sister Gaia,
I bring my love to you,
I love it all.

I’m very grateful, so very very grateful.
Oh my sister Gaia,
I love you so.
