  • AngelBright blessingsAs love unfoldsEmbraced by this lightGossamer wingsIn a gentle breezeFree fallingFloating freedom~

  • Pebbles in the ocean,I drop them one by one.Standing on the shoreline,Across my shoulders,I feel the sun.Move to cooler waters,among the shining waves.As I watch the pebbles fall away,Their shadows still remain.Floating on the water now,I am cradled in its arms.Wash me clean, unfold my heart,Hold me close always,Fly me like a bird,Fly me home…

  • In the dark of nightI hear you calling out to meLike a fire to the flameI have come home againSafe in the heartYou hold me closeAnd closer stillIn this beautiful placeClouds melt to the sunI have become oneAt the crossroadsThere is only one road to takeInto the valley or to the mountain topThey are the…

  • Sounds of falling waterfloat through the airLeaves, green-gold,shimmer endlesslyAmong the laden branchesof the mango treeAs I sit in the roomwith pomegranate wallsThe gentle sloping trunkrolls across the canvassAnd down,as if to find its roots somewhere elseMy eye followsthe sprawling path to the doorThe moment you come in,Ah brilliant light,your energy embraces me,As you sit next…

  • I am idle tonight,as I watch the candle wax foldAnd melt into the dish.Thoughts drift and sway,like clouds on a breeze…Still my heart from beating,while the light dances acrossmy fingertips.I cannot hold this captive in my hand,Any more than I can build a rose.Instead, I let the light slip through,free to flicker,And dip to the…

  • I follow the trail of waterWith the tip of my finger,Your coffee cup leftA ring on the counterIn the place where I hadLeft it to dry.I do not remember whereThis digit journey began,Or where it might end,This slow tracing of the pastIn my mind, I can see you,Lifting the mug to your lips,To drink the…

  • I count the beads that sit on my wrist,One by one,I never think to look where the circle begins or ends.The glass is cool against my fingertips,As I sit by the window,When the breeze sneaks in through the cracks,I pause,Letting the circle go~

  • Sitting by the window,I pause, as a cool breeze sneaks inThrough the cracksI wonder if the dream, while itWeaves its way to reality,Will complete the circle?A pebble drops into the water,And though the moon’s image blurs,It remains in its placeIn the sky,Moving endlessly but never leavingLife, like a waterfall, cascadesAnd pours into itself,Time inside time,Renewing,…

  • Kiss the shining face,Of a golden sunflowerFly on the wind,Of a butterfly’s wingsDrink from the dew,Of the morning glorySee the faces of angelsIn the gentle arms of the treesHear the songs of the running waterOver a bed of stonesLeaves rain on cloudless skies,Winds play a symphonyThrough the treesWhile I sit under a maple with leaves…

  • We live in the same voiceWe live under the same skyWhile the candle dancesBrightlyHearts skip and swellWhen kindred spirits meet~

  • Everyone has somethingThat keeps themAwake at nightSomehow you haveTo make peaceWith yourselfI cannot tell youWhen to stop caring orWhen the nightmaresWill stopA white carnationTo hideTo hideThe smell of deathEveryone has somethingThat keeps them awake at nightEveryone~Whisper to meLike the windInstinct moonShine downOn my soulFill it withLight and peace~

  • In the first lift of lightArms widespreadPalms turned upwardTo the skyI seePassed the sight ofThe sun.~
