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.

Celebrate Life

Posted on by

I celebrate life
with every thought of my day
simple acts of kindness
propel me on my way.

Life flows ever so sweetly
when guided by my heart.
passion bubbles within me
feeding all that I do.

Creation streams through me
with the beauty of life.
the universe sings her songs
cheering me along.

Miracles surround me
as I waltz my way thru the day.
a whole new world greets me
when I sing the glories of joy.

I celebrate life.

Embrace a New World

Posted on by

Embrace a new world
the one you birthed in your dreams
Create a new life
and let the old one go.

Look around, what do you see?
A world that’s crumbling away
Look around, what do you feel?
A life that makes no sense.

Seasons come, seasons go
the ice melts and petals burst forth.
nature spins, her crystalline web.
then in an instant it disappears.

Paradigms, they shift and change
cycles run their course
time never pauses, it marches forth
but with each era we all evolve.

Let it go, let it fade
that world’s had its glory
create anew, ignite the flame
invite us all to join you
in a new world
the one we birthed in our dreams

Embrace a New World.

Winds of Change

Posted on by

Softly I whisper
gently I swirl
storms full of power
on the winds of change.

I stir your inner ocean
causing waves to brake
then sail you across the sea
to horizons beyond your view.

I bring the clouds of rain
to wash anew
soft breezes follow
filled with perfume.

I rustle your treetops
caress your fields of grain
I sing you to slumber
and stir you awake again.

These winds of change
offer a bright display
of what your life can be
instead of yesterdays.

On the winds of change
we all have choice
to open and receive
these gifts of grace.

Softly I whisper
gently I swirl
storms full of power
on the winds of change.

Softly I whisper
softly, gently
softly I whisper . . .
Change.

I AM

Posted on by

I AM the mother who holds you close.
I am the father who guides you.
I am the sister who giggles with you.
I am the brother who protects you.

I AM the child you rock in your arms.
I am the puppy that nips at your heels
I am the neighbor that lives next door.
I am the waitress in the restaurant

I AM the sun that warms you.
I am the dark of night.
I am the moon that phases through your life.
I am the stars that twinkle overhead.

I AM the trees that sway in the wind.
I am the flowers that bloom at your feet.
I am the stone you skip across the sea.
I am the rainbow traversing your sky.

I am the words you speak
I am the songs you sing
I am the pictures you paint
I am al of creation.

I AM All-That-Is
I am present in everything
I am present in everyone
I AM you
together
We are All-That-Is.

Chalice of Love

Posted on by

I offer love to you
from the chalice of the heart
doesn’t matter who you are
man or woman, rich or poor
black or white, young or old
I offer this chalice of love to you.

My heart spills over
with the joy of life
and fills the chalice
with wine so rich
join me in sipping
from this cup
getting drunk
on the ecstasies of love.

It’s the great mystery
how love heals all
but it’s true
I tell you now
with a drop of love
wounds can mend
with understanding
wars can end.

Accept this gift
graciously given
there’s no payment
this cup is free
all that I ask of you
is to receive it
and when you’re ready
please pass it on.

Pass this cup of sweet, sweet wine
from your hand to another
as we all drink from this chalice of love
One people, One heart.

The Way of Love

Posted on by

On days like this I need you near me
On days like this I need your help
I ask for courage. I ask for strength
I ask you to walk beside me hand in hand.

Amidst my angst, I need a friend
Amidst my turmoil I need peace
Chaos surrounds me. I’ve lost my way.
I ask you to walk beside me hand in hand.

In times like these I need a partner.
In times like this I need support.
My vision is clouded. I need clarity.
I ask you to walk beside me hand in hand.

To show me the way of love, the way of trust,
the way of acceptance with compassion.
Show me the way of grace.
Show me the way.

With you beside me my view expands
With you beside me I see what’s real
I sink into my heart
and always live from love.

When you walk beside me hand in hand
I know the way of love, I live in trust,
I live in acceptance with compassion,
I know the way of grace.
I know the way.

When you walk beside me hand in hand
I know the way of Love,
I know Love.
