In the course of our victory, our puzzle completed,
compassion must reign
humanity flowing
in our veins,
as we each become
a new beginning.

The Strength of Encouragement
Once our wings are established,
nature will call us higher
with poetry lifting hearts
bringing the strength
of encouragement
to each other.

Sails
Even in our brokenness, will still
hold onto memories of hope,
as if
they were ships,
sails filled with wind,
bringing us back,
we move forward
as the light sparkles,
on our sea.

Beyond Words
In every season there are signs that we are loved,
the gentleness tucked inside a spring rain,
the warmth of the summer sun caressing our faces,
the brilliant colors of autumn inspiring us,
and the quiet of a winter snowfall, bringing us peace,
all speaking to us,
in a language
beyond words.

Into the White Clouds Over the Bay
As I lift my eyes my spirit flies,
into the white clouds
over the bay,
as every part of me
embraces
a sense of peace.

Listening to Our Hearts
The forest doesn’t hold onto our echoes,
absorbing the sound
so that we can listen,
to our presence
and our hearts.

Where Poetry is Born
In our spirits, the very core of our beings,
waits a special place, a sacred space,
moving us beyond
our tears, our fears,
into the quiet side
of our hearts,
where poetry is born.
