We Join Hands

 

 

 

Tiny visions of hope

Emanating from our souls

We join hands

Uniting into one voice

Healing the divide

Between what was

And what is

 

We sing in unison

A circle of women

To restore to humanity

The beauty lost

In mankind’s shadow

The reverberation of love

 

We come home

Shrouded in our mists

Of elegance

 

The birth of a new consciousness

 

Light Rising

 

 

Light rising

The power of

Owning the image

In the mirror

 

Reopening

The heart of me

Revealing

My own beauty

 

Kisses pouring down

Like rain

 

The heavens open up

I enter inside

Take my wings

I am ready to fly

 

Horizon

Entering my heart

Where I settle

Into the warmth

Of love’s belly

The womb of creation

 

Birthing

A new light

 

The Lightness of Freedom

 

Hands raised to the sky

Arms wide open

The lightness of freedom

Soaring….

The eagle and I

Through an endless horizon

Releasing

All the yesterdays

That weighed me down

I turn now to tomorrow

Full of promise

Opening

The page

Of a new book

A warrior of love

Owning light

 

Reflection

 

Daylight breaking

Sunlight on the water

The sounds of harmony

Echoing

Through my soul

Reflections

On the water

My own image

Staring at me

Wakeful eye

Disturbing

The fantasy of illusion

 

My Friend

 

Though darkness

Has been no stranger

I call the light my friend

Though I do not always

Seek out wisdom

It seems to find its way to me

I could stay in the night

If I choose

Stay lost in the dark

If I wanted

But where the moon

Meets the river

I walk along slowly

Catching my reflection

To realize

These shadows

Bring me no happiness

And light has been

My friend

Long enough for me

To find it difficult

To ignore


 


Opening

 

Time came

To open the fruit

Wings saw you there

Today

We meet

Your eyes

Opening

The light

Of my being

 

Casting Away Shadows

The light has come
To cast away the shadows
In time’s remaining hands
All that was left undone
Becomes a finished chore


Dancing into the light
Of remembrance
Of who I am
My sacredness
A key I have turned
Unlocking
My worthiness
With timid hands
That forgot
How to shine


The shadows barely there
Anymore
As they come
Into the light
To merge
Into wholeness


 


My Fire

My Fire

 

Sometimes words

Sit silently

Awaiting an audience

Hidden behind curtains

I peek through

To see you

In the morning heat

Rising against

The silence

That gnaws at my bones

We pass one another

A longing fills my chest

I burn

You turn

Towards me

Embracing my fire

As I nestle

Inside yours

 


In the Light

Complicated by time

What once was

A simple mind

Shadows

In the light

Disappear

With no might

What was blind

Is so clear

I thought

I might know

But I don’t

And so

I’ll tend

To my garden

And see

What there

Might grow

 

What Sudden Songs

What Sudden Songs

 

 

I don’t know

What sudden songs

Of nature sing

Quiet, though it may seem

Slightly restless

Wandering westward

The horizon of the sun

 

He sleeps next to me

At night

Sweet face

Lying where I sometimes stare

What dreams

Keep him here
