Earth Jewel

the Earth Jewel I feel I am

becoming

and perhaps I already am~

In unison

with

 the  Greater Source of light

that shines around

And I let flow through me...

As a beacon of

Love

Attracting more love

BEING

more love

So magical. So splendid.

Rumi was able to put it down in words

LOVE

Rumi expressed it well.

That Love.

That Bliss.

That open

Heart

 I have so many loving

connections

to amazing people

Such Love

and Peace

shine through me

I live in such Gratitude

of All That There Is

and

All There Can Be

Love Heals

Love Creates

Love Permeates through the toughest places

Frozen Dreams

The wind rings the chimes

as the snow blows around.

The hard ice has created

a crunchy slippery ground.

Playing outside and

wishing to dance.

Winter has come early

 Giving rise to our trance.

We have dressed up in mittens, hats,

jumpers and boots.

Craving to have

every moment it suits.

We play and we play

white face and red nose

until Jack Frost has found

the tips of my toes.

So cold, we must warm up

though reluctant to go in

From morphing the snow

into angels, forts and men.

We watch early night fall

and know in our rest

Frozen dreams will be welcome

as our wintery guest.

 Gratitude Blessing

I live my life with gratitude.

Within me there is an abundance of love & joy.

I am loveable. I am loving.

I love myself.

I have released the pain of the past and live
in the present.

I live each day with intent.

I surround myself with pleasant surroundings.

The people I attract into my life are loving,
giving and full of joy.

I am blessed. I am grateful.
Today is my day. This is my time

Inspiration to Care

Love is all I want to share,
Because I feel so deeply,
That all our inner children,
Need to learn to care.

We are all together,
We are one together,
We only need to care,
For each and every other.

Blessed are we with truth,
Inside each and every heart,
A gift to light our dark,
To journey every path.

Happiness is ours to keep,
It comes from deep inside,
You'll find it there,
If only you would seek.

Core Creations

YOU ARE

You are my sun.
Your rays
beams of warmth
blanketing my body
Providing shelter from cold;
lighting my way.

You are my moon,
your luminescence my light
in the darkest of nights.
Your glow my comfort
When fear consumes.

You are my compass,
my true north.
When I lose my way
you guide me.
Unerringly;
Never failing;
Always constant,
Pointing the way.

You are my tree,
Under whose branches
I find shade's shelter;
Against whose trunk
I rest when I am weary.

You are my stream
In which I place my feet,
When the road I travel
Along life's journey
Has blisters made
And soreness ache.
Your waters soothe me.

You are my house,
my home.
Your walls protect me;
Your roof shelters me
From life's storms.
You keep me safe
when intruders would steal and rob.

You are my fire in the hearth.
Your dancing flames warm me
as I sit before you
Mesmerized
By your hypnotic display

You are my world,
My planet.
The fruits of which provide
The air I breath,
The water which quenches my thirst,
The soil which brings forth my nourishment.

You are,
And because You are
I am.

On Your Journey…

May the morning glow wake your spirit of adventure

The rising moon lull you to sleep with the knowledge you have gained

The sea breezes encourage your salty sense of humor

And the dancing wind in the prairie grass, bring to life those who settled this place.

During Your Journey…

Rise early to the scent of Pine dew and waking lilies

Lie on your backs in the middle of a sand dune

While watching the sunset as the sand slides between your toes

Find the music in the car horns, the shuffling feet, the shouting voice of the city

Look for the stranger in the diner on the corner who might tell you a story, you never heard before

Make snow angels on the roadside just because you can.

 
Through Your Journey…

Drench yourselves in the goodness of people

The beauty of country

The mistakes you will make

The desert rain which can rejuvenate your weary hands and feet

 
And If Your Journey….

Blows harshly upon your spirit and mind

Know that there are people who love you

And will hold a home for you anytime you wish it.
