In Diversity There is Strength
In this age of racism and strife, I wanted to make a statement that all people are welcome here!
Regardless of your race, or where you are from, or your language, or religion, or if you have no religion,
you are welcome here. Unless you’re a bully! No bullies are allowed on this site.
Diversity is a strength. We each have something important to contribute to our world.
I so appreciate all my readers!
Thank you so much!

The Light of Wisdom
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.”
“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Great leadership seeks wisdom from above,
and maintains a confident yet humble heart.
Amen.

Poems from Our Wordflow
May our poems emerge from our wordflow,
shaping themselves to encourage
from the stillness
of our peace within.

Peace Be Still
On that day, when he most needed it
coming from within the depths,
a voice…
from the most ancient of days,
saying…
“Peace,
be still.”

The Promise of Blue
On those days when the wind gets knocked out of me, I remember the sea.
Pine trees swaying on the shoreline, with my sails full….I journey seeking the promise of blue,
and the adventure
of tomorrow.

Ocean Meditations II
The rhythym of the waves speaking to who we truly are,
we are spirit
and in the quieting of our inner life
we remember
it was not always this way,
there truly was a connection.
And I realize now
the oceans cleanse us
from who
we were never meant to be,
restoring us,
so amazingly.

The Sacred Feather
It wasn’t until he was near the top of the ridge that he distinctly heard a set of wings, it was unmistakable…
so he looked up into the brightness of the sun. He saw nothing…but felt the presence of wings.
Was it an eagle’s spirit, or an angel? He couldn’t tell. And then one single white feather, tinged with grey came floating down,
landing on his shoulder, and for some reason he felt….well protected. Then he remembered,
that feathers could be held as sacred…..he carried that feather in his hand to the top of the mountain,
then he closed his eyes, whispering a prayer. He didn’t know it then, but a very large shadow of wings covered him……
so completely.

Hope Finds the Light
Our hearts will not answer the call of our scars forever,
because hope finds the light,
holding us steady,
giving us a vision
for a brighter tomorrow….
aren’t you glad?

I Saw the Light
I saw the light of my people, of all people
walking over rugged terrain,
in small towns, in the cities,
sometimes through ruins
marching peacefully
with fire in their hearts,
huge crowds gathering
for their brothers and sisters,
for all people…..
demanding liberty
and justice
for all.
