light – Rivers Renewed

As Night Falls on the Bay

Even the sun surrenders to the night,

as young lovers dream of colors on the water

with boats floating,

and ducks nestled into their feathers,

while frogs take over the serenade.

A clouded sky prepares

for the victory of fireflies

while the bay embraces

the reflection of our souls

and the moon glows,

in those softer lights

during times of our embracing.

May Light Shape Our Words

A poem will often carry my spirit into the mountains

where I hover

and pray over the land.

I did get glimpse once

of the healing so elusive

in our world today.

May rays of light continue

to shape our words

into prayers,

into poems

until the scars

vanish away.

New Light Lifted

The strength of our healing will never come from our shields,

or our bows launching

instead we will walk in a new light lifted

from the power of our flowers

and from the peace

of our streams,

flowing deep

within our spirits.

Tucked Away Hidden

Tucked away hidden, in the deepest core of our being

glimpses, shimmering

light speaking

through,

the closed door,

because we really don’t believe

we are worthy,

of being loved.

Did you know you are loved?

So You Can Heal and Grow

When our wordflow comes from that jagged edge

we will not be able to bloom

the way we’d hope to,

so allow the light,

to dance

to move within you,

rolling through

open,

so you can heal

and grow.

Thankful for Spring

I’m so thankful for the way spring fills us,

the way God intended

making us alive again,

lifting us, strengthening our hearts,

moving us forward.

Yes, I’m so thankful for spring, and for you my readers. You’re wonderful! Thank you also for your patience as we practice self-care. I know it should be easy to do, but it’s not.

When I practice self-care I have to put things aside. Which means I’ve been here less often than I would like to be. This is new for me. I sign on less often and post less often.

Please remember that I don’t blog with my phone! Thank you for your patience as I answer your messages. I’m very grateful for your comments.

Thank you so much for reading!
