Nature’s Quest

Posted on by

The mist of magic waft through the air
with whispers of mystical secrets.
The sacred fog wraps around me
in a blanket of infinite wisdom.

The foghorn sings its rhythmic dirge
taking me ever deeper.
Into the arms of my soul I dive
with complete lustful abandon.

The gulls overhead soar to and fro
drifting on the wind.
The sea laps upon the sand
caressing her sacred consort.

The sunbeams dance across the mist
creating delicate rainbows.
In one fell swoop the sun bursts forth
And the spell is completely broken.

But have no fear, it’s always here
the mists, the gulls and the sea.
Mother Nature is ever present
rocking us in her arms.

But it’s up to us to open our eyes
and see what once was hidden.
The truth of nature she holds dear
Always in abundance.

Now it’s up to us open our hearts
embracing all she offers.
Our partner in life she chooses to be
Are you open to receive her?

It’s up to us
to embrace all she offers.
As a partner in life
Are you open to receive her?

Open and receive her.
Open and embrace her.

Ancient Wisdom

Posted on by

Ancient wisdom seeps through my feet
as I walk barefoot on the earth.
Ancient wisdom sings through the wind
as it whispers in my ears.
Ancient wisdom washes over me
as I dive deeply into the sea.
Ancient wisdom blazes from my heart
with the fire of love.
I AM this Ancient wisdom,
for it emanates from within me.

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.

Note: Rose of Sharon means …
“Consumed by Love” or “The Beloved One”,
often referred to in “Song of Songs” in the bible.

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.
