65/F/Britsh Columbia/Fiji I am a senior 65+ who loves to write poetry via my helpers the word nymphs. At the moment my second book to be published is to be a poetry/art coffee table book. I love to travel, hike, inner growth and healing work.
Words live longer than people Their inner core holds wisdoms Setting hearts a soaring, stopping Across ancestors and horizons. In the beginning was sound Within each one, a unique vibration Holding it’s history, present and future Like birds awakening the Earth Their spirits travel through air Or carried by elves, nymphs, fairies Each core holding truths Expanded, or reduced by familiarity. Their communications offers Freedom, understanding and insights Repetitive, soft or loud Freely given or shouted. Sounds peppered with smiles & laughter, Create grapevines, interlacing webs For world travellers in far horizons No matter different tongues. Sounds are for listening Opening or closing hearts Activating ears for hearing Ringing like a bell Existing for one and all.

Gift of Sounds
Today’s Poem For me for others? What time? day or night? What subject? Profound or simple? Finding the inner silence Touching inner depth Stillness, subtleties, spaces While hearing bird songs. Inner wisdom seldom searched Available for all seekers Touching Earth’s dept Travelling out into galaxies Our infinitesimal life A horizon’s ant Travelling anywhere But inward. Moments are fleeting Treasure them always Enlightening the truth Creating IS ETERNAL

Today's Poem
Grief is penetrating Unseen, all pervasive Lost to Others A lonely, devastating adventure. Yet resides in all humans Generally, has no colour, texture Provoking strong movements and tears A silent home invader. Origin dug deep within Earth’s strata Like diamonds, requires focus and commitment Removal of blocks, detours, awakens joy and peace Clearing, cleansing creates authenticity, freedom.

POETRY OF GRIEF
Moments in life when blessings appear What a wonderful feeling To know desire, to share A sparkling moment of truth. Trusting all is perfect My heart opens and expands Connecting with long lost friends Setting appointments for future visits. Desiring more expansion More freedom More loving and joy More giving and sharing. The truth of life We are never alone Although unseen Following our inner guidance. Vibrating, connecting, moving We are one Animals, bugs, rocks, sentient beings All want to be acknowledged, appreciated. I thank my lucky stars for being me. Receiving my inner desires Self acknowledgement Through ease and effortlessness. My light climbs up and out And all around spreading Around Mother Earth’s body Patience, understanding, forgiveness. Life can be joyous if we let it Flowing gently in the middle Of her subconscious streams Revealed by intuition and dreams. No need to tremble or fumble Accepting life’s graciousness Letting go, surrendering Emotions, our transportation system.

BLESSED ONES
Inner Beauty It is like the sky Boundless and all encompassing It’s who we eternally are Transparent like our creator. In our Earthly school Lessons appear cluttered, chaotic Like an unkept teenagers room Removal of debris, undesirables Reveals clarity, open spaces. Our true nature Is beauty holding rainbow colours Movements and sounds with ease All is pure potential, all is possible. Holders of beauty, Poets, writers, musicians Athletes, and artists Are reflectors of inner truths. Beauty surrounds all Requiring stillness and desires To be present for All life’s gifts.

Inner Beauty
Brings sunshine and fluffy clouds Warmth, relaxation at cottages Fresh berries, blue, black and red. Taste buds smiling as we swallow. Evenings bring cool breezes Starry bright, sparkling sky nights Crickets chirping, flirting noisily Yodelling loons, diving for fish. Paddling, rowing on blue lakes Dogs, children joyfully skipping, swimming Barbecue smells, roasted marshmallows Families & neighbours loving reunions. Summer lightens our hearts Bringing out the best in us As we shed our winter, rain clothes Freedom, happiness all for the making.

SUMMER
EBBS AND FLOWS We are the cup holder Not its contents Drink it's wisdom and clarity Greater gifts to uncover. Search within for insights Release pain and hurts Find their vibrational resonance Supported by self love. Remove what was never you Clear, cleanse and purify Your true essence lies within Discover the eternal you and gifts. Forsake the interruptions Permit Nature to nourish all Accept her ebbs and flows Swim in clear pure waters of life.

Ebbs and Flows
Wind has a voice Has a force Reaches everywhere High and low and all around. Sometimes it roars in long sentences Paragraphs and stories Nothing is untouched by its presence Its voice rises to high pitches and short notes Like small white caps. Dancing branches, fronds swaying Feeling cozy, safe behind glass doors Mother Nature's symphony of dance and music No escaping its presence It cleans up all loose ends. It tests trees, plants and grasses Akin to human challenges Wave upon wave travelling to shore Grey clouds above, forewarning impending storms. A child's innocence exists Not fearing the winds greatness As one listens to her roar, roar and roar. I am nature's cleaner Lots to say, I come after the calm Before the storm and sometimes during. My power demands respect Not as powerful as fire Thou humbles Man Creating decay upon the ground. Recycled for soil and new growth. WIND THE ENHANCER OF LIFE.

POWERFUL WIND AROUND NANANU-I-RA
A place of nurture A home for living Millions of colures, textures & shapes Sparkling fireflies, crystal snow flakes. Mother, accepts all Constantly reseeds and fertilizes Sends sun showers, winds and rain drops Responds, tempers her wildly children. Storms, blizzards, heat waves Clear waters, unique rolling waves Oceans of history Yet to be unravelled. Man often slow to learn Change is inevitable Choices mandatory Often abdicating his glory. Patience is a well worn path Where struggles stretch to inner strength Safety born from fear Our own worst enemy. Beauty is our true Nature Trees, vegetation, flowers Mountains, lakes, rivers Our reminders Laugh, sing, dance Laugh, sing, dance.

Nature Precious Teacher
WHOLENESS Gathering all scattered pieces Sitting in a pile Disassembled, disarrayed and disjointed Wanting home, wanting home. Is remembering, the answer? Searching for the glue, the clue! Peeling back, layers upon layers Cleaning, clearing sharp edges. Relating piece by piece One's life's puzzle Essential to find smooth edges Connecting, one by one. Attending to all loose ends No thing or person to be ignored Every moment, person is vital Gathering all items, nothing is separate. Connecting: how do it? Appreciating part's uniqueness Connecting: why do it? For belonging, closeness, truth. Warmth, intimacy, harmony Climbing the mountain Risking the challenge Linking, togetherness, bonding. Joining, belonging, finding Lost intimacy's way home No longer isolated, unreachable Amalgamated within the greater WHOLE
