Sometimes the night can seem so beautiful,
and yet holds such a quiet deception,
the deflection of light
limiting,
our vision.

As the Sunlight Sparkles
As the sunlight sparkles on the lake, a few clouds slowly meander,
brushing by a memory,
sparking really a prayer
a hope
that brings shape to a poem,
so gently.

Heart Rhythym
Oceans do bring me back to a true heart rhythm,
a peace filled depth,
a calm
that speaks
and a language
I can understand.

The Wind Coming Down from the Mountains
As the winter storm roared through the trees, thunder rumbled rolling
through the valley, having been sent down the side of the mountain,
and I realized our spirits are so fragile, we often sense
the loneliness of the wind, with snowflakes swirling,
and yet inside our cocoons, we acknowledge the safety
and that God was never angry, even though
He probably does live in the wind
coming down
from the mountains.

Embracing Spirit
Within our limited frames we are so much more than just bones carrying our brains,
an inner life of traveling through, of breathing in and embracing spirit,
the true person not seen.

Birdsong Travels
In waves of cloudflow, birdsong travels
to a future time, sending notes
and prayers
to our coming spring.
And Earth begins her warming.

In Each Piece of Light
In each revelation of words, in each piece of light
a breakthrough
beyond our canopies
that cover our hearts
and minds,
into the realm of discovery.
Poetry lives.
