Just Being There

So Long And Living On

Corfu cotton, long forgotten,

you are my favourite one.

Double-stitched and reinforced,

with me when all challenges came,

as life, it seemed, departed me

again.

But there you were,

wash and wear anywhere,

dusky shades of muted blue

with smoky colours rising through.

Years and years go by,

leaving and grieving,

starting on a new pathway,

meeting love along the way,

so, as wisdom walks with me

I see beyond with clarity.

You cloak me softly

when courage

 calls me through the light,

then beams of joy are rising high.

All I ever need

envelops me as a seed,

encourages me

to flower like the brightest one,

to raise my mind

with the Solar Sun,

as I see who you are

 my little child upon the earth

who joins me now

in joy and mirth,

evermore to be

shining perfectly.

Honouring Others

She was in her deepest heart

a kind and caring,

friend to all who came to call.

She was our precious friend,

supporting our lives, 

and honoring our choices.

We always saw her guiding light

we always knew her Golden Rule.

"Do unto others as you

 would have

 them do unto you" 

She showed us

 quietly every day

Love

 is what you give away.

Love is All There Is

and only

 the love we received

and the love

 we shared with others

 really matters.

Looking Deeply to Understand Clearly

Under The Oak Tree

May I sit with you a little while
and receive renewal
from your green smile.

May I know each day
whatever arises
will pass
and whatever passes
will come to be
a way of learning for me.

May I breathe fresh air
in the mountain stillness
and allow myself the space to be
knowing clarity.

May I grow the herbs
and harvest the fruit,
may I shine within
and know there is
peace to be with me.

May I pick some blooms
and sing with flowers,
may I live simply
and treasure hours,
quietly knowing
life is growing all around me.

Following Through

Who could ask for anything more.

Just explore.

Go forward.

Go inward

then outward,

beyond and within.

Just begin.

There is always a branching of the road

a frog to kiss

a prince to meet

a life to greet

and change to embrace.

Go there.

Know what to do and what to say

and cherish your life.

Begin Now.

You follow and you lead.

You breathe.

Bring your willingness with you.

Follow through.

Being true.

Weave A Way

Moroccan silk treasure,

I do see you.

 

I see your colours.

 

Each

beautiful

thread 

 masterfully

placed

to become

this

superb

one and only.

Weaving is believing
