Pass It On

May your days be bright
and your heart be light.
May Love be in your life,
May hope be in your heart
May peace be in our world.

Wishing many Blessings to all.

When I received this beautiful New Year greeting from my friends at Deep Soul Connection in Glastonbury UK, I truly felt the simplicity and strength in this openly shared expression.


So as they say.... From them to me, and now to you 

"Please Pass It On"
 
 
In kindly ways let us all share.

Sweet Friend



Sweet friend
and lovely faithful one
I see you shine in the morning sun.

Let the golden light
come down through you
and take a spell to gather strength
and ‘ready for’ steps of length
as times are changing
and you are too,
let all the old cells drift away
and live your moments every day.

To Lift Your Heart

What I feel with you is cupped inside
and within your petals
you like to hide.
You have the seeds of abundance
there
and in these pods,
are the ways which are coming through
to lift your heart and know within
all these seeds are ready to
open wide
and on a prayer
they come to glide
down into
every soul
you ‘lift’ each day
with your light
which shines the way
for everyone you ever loved
to know they are and always were
the living love you serve each day
in your own kind and loving way.

Begin Anew

We must all begin
to bring in balance in our every way
and Love to share every day.
Some look deeply to understand
and some clearly live ‘on the edge’
but these new times are coming fast
and nothing rushed ever lasts.

Go within to find yourself
To ‘know thyself’ will bring rewards
sharing and caring,
healing too,
bring these gifts inside you.

Your heart does know another way
to open up and live each day.
Be your truth and glow inside
all you know is never hide
your Self
from yourself.

Forgiveness brings you a best friend,
forgive yourself  to see the end
of disharmony in your cells,
your own true self
is waiting for you
to look within and begin anew
to love the Self shining through.

Seeing deeply
shines a light
on the dark inside
the fears and fright,
the ways you lost
when rushing past
the truth of you will always last
The light in you will heal your Spirit,
call higher
so you see and feel it.

Unwrap This Gift

To share the present given you
go within
and just look through
to who you are
and how you know
all is well
when you keep the faith
and heaven shines
upon your mind
and up above
you’ll one day be
so live as such presently.

Tie a bow around your heart
then present your Self
to your self
and unwrap this gift
given you
and shine your light
through each dark night
and all around
will surely be
a lovely place for you to see,
to share
to open doors
and welcome in
each dear soul
looking for
who they are for Evermore.

When You Feel Like "A Lost Soul"



You say you “feel
like
a
lost
soul”
and will you ever
feel
you’re becoming whole.
From where I see
you
are
free
to be the whole
you’re looking for
to go within
and explore
forgiveness.

Yes, forgiveness
is the way
to heal the past
in everyway
and when you do
the breaking through
expands your heart
to fill the world
and bring to you
the knowing-true
who
you
are.

You are always whole
and always here
you fill the skies
you fly on high
you are the one
to start the ball
rolling.

Sit where you will not be interrupted.
Say I am here now to heal myself.
I am willing now to release my pain
my shame
my rage
myself
I am open to forgiving you
forgiving him
and her
them
and me.
I will climb the forgiving tree,
branch
by
tender branch.

Instead of falling further down
you will be released
and easily
will come to know ‘the setting free’.
The view from the tree tops
is like the wonder
you feel you’ve lost
and all that you need do
is believe
a simple process
heals deeply.

So take a breath and some continual hours,
repeat whenever you are called,
willingness brings clarity
and forgiveness does ‘set you free’.

I Will Be Seeing You

Fare Thee well my old friend

He Was My Long-Time Friend

Ten years ago you left the bus
to start the end of you and the end of us.
Ten days later you suddenly died
in a deck-chair on a city footpath.
I grieved your loss
day after day and on and on
but now I finally have come through
as strong,
or stronger than I’ve ever been
as I’ve seen you in the world unseen.

I sit here in the misty morning
thinking of that last weekend
cutting ‘willow wands’ and wattle sticks,
drinking espressos or woody & earthy Assam tea
and we were contented you and me.

I see deep below
there always was a dark hollow
where you lived with homeless men
but up there in the light of heaven
you still do your best
to find a pillow to ‘line a nest’
caring for ‘those left behind’
when the road ahead is unlit by friends.

So the ants are here!
But only seen singularly,
at the bathroom basin, on the window sill
meandering over my laptop screen
inside the pages of my book
this week one is, wherever I look;
not the path that hundreds took
as you observed their worker ways
to while the hours in your unscheduled days.

Time is for the living
the breathing-in and giving
the breathing out
to take life in, breathing all to begin.
Now and Again
Where and When
Here and Now
we learn somehow
life is here this very moment
we never know when living goes.
God Knows.
