Release...

Release these pages and let them flutter

They will write regardless of your stutter

Mindless ideas pulse like-

Feathers in the wind--

There is glow in the hidden moon of day

Release these blessings and begin to pray

Linked by wire paint

Every moment worshiped as saint

Between heart strings of unseen divine

I have chosen to resign

I do not know.

I do not need to know.

I can only do my part

Which is to follow this heart

Sending waves of love to those I see

I have chosen to release me

Morning motions...

Fresh wash over me

Step out into reaching branches

Holding might

Opening the dust to ray shine

We can believe it's finding way

Today is a day

Today is the day

Today filled with morning motions

Today begin to rise

Hero journey...

Yellow brick road

Carry on to shore

Follow the windy green of lush heat

Lions, Tigers, and Bears, Oh my!

Brainstorming memory mind

Hidden heart beats

And cultivating courage

Home is here in this step

Clicking heels to upbeat trails

Take this body safe to shore

 Find strength in the pose

And poise in confident pain

Soften into gold

To melt with the rain

 Lit by a moment

The truth carries us on

Shadow of Gratitude...

Island of lonely thankfulness

Finding the bliss within this

There are curtains to raise

Eyes to rise

The ability to look and bless the sky

 

Burning fires filling shadows past

Turning molten soil into a rumbled path

The death of destruction breeding construction

The loom of forgotten

Blown away in sulfur taste

In a haste of gracious power

 Unknown patterned color of flower

 

All death is destructive

In new birthing kind of way

Guaranteed to follow change

Life is meant to rearrange

The owl has come back again

It's a new day

Tending Home...

The repeating soothe of the whispered tune

Thinking of forever changes and passing winds

Papa died smiling, he sang

Wishing for wishing wells

And running fields into fairy tales

The part of me that still sings

God is good

I think of you

And I imagine me

And I remember passing times and old nursery rhymes

Feeling shift makes me want to drift

Into a pretend house to tend

And I understood

I hold you up, dear friend

You must work your way to yourself

Don't you see the struggle I bare in these bones?

South Georgia

I've never been down South

And he sang, in Sodom South Georgia

Offered Pulse...

 Let's just stay here

As the wind tunnel travels above ground

Following clouds to Oz

I play centuries past

Let's just stay here

Tearing claw digging below

Where nothing rests

The swiftness of moving clocks

The breeze of childhood

Let's just stay here

I miss your tender

Roughed hands meeting soft silence

I won't find you here.

Let's just stay here

And pretend there is a here to stay

To meet half way

In the dark I start to talk

Questions, questions, questions..

Can we just stay here?

Drive me back to the pulse of heavy moments

Walking in the moisture of dull colors

Let's just stay here

We don't know what parts are saved

We don't know what it means to run away

Where are you?

Let's just stay here.

Hidden Treasure...

The lying behind

The buried beneath

All that exists within reach

Of unknown depth within

I find the solace to listen again

Deep beats of metronome tones

Praying my life will be more than a drone

Of calling colors that shadow me

Make the routine inspiring and free

I dance these letters

I swirl my statement

Finding focus in a play date

Living a life worshiping those who create

I adore your life for you

You followed fate

 

Ego stick of wondrous magic

I am part of the trick wrecking havoc

What will choose to stick?

Bitten by the prick

Of a sleeping monster

Pouring my life in front me

It's time to uncover the intention of the hidden key

Union...

Centered standing in full union

Admitting to release of struggle

Remaining flexible at the knees

Humanly humble and saying please

Exercise for the self to shed

Revealing softened skin within

Beginning with infinite faith

Every moment you are safe 

Building new structured balance

Clearing the moving malice

I am my own body palace

Washing away twisting pain

Love is all that always remains

Floating Authentic...

Think for me today new ways

Unfold mystery curtains to reveal

The magic waiting inside

Not just hidden rabbits and false cut ties

But the timing that only Houdini would risk

Trust and hold the trick

Let me go on a date with the creative in me

And ask me what I'd like to see

Over coffee talk lost in excited eyes

Let me find that alive me

She's very romantic and free

And chooses to breathe in sensuality

I'm over caring about what the cool kids do

There is no reason to be anything other than the authentic you

And I'm ok with whatever fashion that may be

I seek self tranquility
