color of the warmth
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
color of the warmth
of the brushing of the leaves
crushing of harsh winds
blistering at your heart strings
as seasons consistently change

Golden colors
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
Golden colors
emerge with
the breezy weather
amazing wonders.
Leaves fall
and crumble
as you watch them drop
one each after all.

I love Roses in my Garden
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
Roses unfold
millions and millions
that it seems.
A garden untold
of gorgeous flowers
and petals and leaves.
Red, yellow, and pink
scattered all around,
bright colors welcomed
as you lay and think
while petals settle.

Moon sparkles
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
Moon sparkles
rising in the sky

A lovely night
to think and ponder
under the silvery moon.

Peace and quiet,
nothing but a calming wind.

Always Mine.
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
I will always walk a mile
just to see you smile.
I will always enjoy your embrace
no matter the place.
No matter if the sky is gray or blue
just as long as it is with you.
You will always be my handsome man.
I will always remind you how you are grand.
I appreciate you every day
in every amazing and incredible way.
I wrote this for my boyfriend on his birthday

Randy the robot
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
Randy the Robot
was a little robo tot.
He never went anywhere
and he did not think that was fair.

He was stuck in the lab
and he always tried to grab
a toy of some kind
just whatever he could find.

He would start to play
and play and play away.
This would bring him such joy
until his maker would say "This is not a toy!"

Randy felt that he was missing a part.
This part was a heart.
He was curious how it felt to beat
and how it fluttered ever so sweet.

He would ask his maker to make one.
He explained how it would be fun
but his maker would say a lot
that a heart is not made for a robot.

His maker began to see
that Randy was not very happy.
So he made his creation a heart
and how Randy was ready to restart.

Randy opened his robot eyes
and due to a pleasant surprise
Randy's new heart began to beat
and with joy it fluttered ever so sweet.

turquoise water
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
brushing against
the turquoise water
waves stumble back
and forth wetting the white sand
radiant blues reflect off eyes
with the sun's paradise so grand
seas so embellished and feet
can't wait to embrace the water off dry land.
Jan 2018 · 103
Over
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
Those eyes I used to adore
now make me feel pain and sore.

I sometimes wish they would call
but sometimes I wish never at all.

All I can do is curl up in bed
and can't get your picture out of my head.

Everything hurts all the time
nothing but bitter pantomime.

I lay and continue to hate
a feeling of a wrecking ball against my weight

Autumn's Enjoyment
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
She climbed gently over the branch
and she rolled up her jeans
and dipped her feet in the cool water
as she watched all of nature's scenes.
She was enthused by the colors
of every reddish, golden leaf
and everything so  vivid mirrored
on the wavy water beneath.
She retrieved her book
she had next to her yellow sweater.
She enjoyed each chapter
as she enjoyed the weather.

A Day's View
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
A Day's View
A new day begins
with a beautiful sunrise.
Light peeks through your window
as you slowly open your eyes.
As the day marches on,
you do what is on your agenda.
As hours go by,
the sun grows slender.
You drive home
as the sun centers down.
You glaze at the beauty
as it disappears to the ground.
Soon to become a white light
to take to the sun's place.
The sky full of darkness
but with stars and space.
You crawl in bed
for it's time to snooze
You smile gladly
at your moonlight view.
Jan 2018 · 107
Rain of butterflies
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
Fluttering wings
in the celestial horizon.
Flaring over the beautiful things
below the blazing sun.  

Soaring and flapping
over every blossom
and every sapling.
Never to be forgotten.

Rain of butterflies
channeling every inch of grass
and gliding the tranquil skies
exploring this world's wide mass

Snowy stars
Crystal Freda Nov 2017
Wondrous mountains up high
rising mighty in the night sky.
Stars glistening ever so
as you feel the wind flow by.
You slowly look below
at the misty, clouded snow
You look above so far
and get lost in the stars.
Nov 2017 · 111
Sparkling
Crystal Freda Nov 2017
Never stop burning.
Never stop your heart
from churning
to embark a new start.
Don't let no wind
or gale blow you out
or to be thinned
rather than bright and stout.
Never let your light spark out
or be watered on.
Let it be bright in life's blackout
always shining like the dawn.
Nov 2017 · 105
Never let go
Crystal Freda Nov 2017
If He can carry a cross,
He can carry you
when you're lost.

No matter the storm
you go through
He will always
carry you.

Just take His hand
and let Him know
that you will never
let Him go.

A message for you...
Crystal Freda Nov 2017
Be yourself.
Never be someone else.
You were made to be you.
Everything you go through
is meant for a reason
why you go through every kind of season.
You should live to be you.
This should always be true.
Be true to yourself.
You shine like pastel.
Every color shimmers
and brightly glimmers
on you.
You can grow and accrue
but you will always be you
of who you are meant to be
as you live to be free.

Love's Great Healing
Crystal Freda Nov 2017
True love
can move mountains,
heal hurting hearts,
and rise above.
True love
makes wise choices,
will always be there,
and makes your heart
flutter like a dove.
Devotion

and march everything
in motion.
A sweet feeling
can mend every inch
of overwhelming pain,
and give us full healing

Today,
I will love my enemies.
Today,
I treat others right.

Right now,
I will tell you I love you.
Right now,

Here and now,
I will be kind.
Always and now,
I will be a light.

PEI
Crystal Freda Nov 2017
PEI
Brisk winds linger at your face
from the cold Canadian breeze
as you fasten your pace
with beautiful skies such as these.

White paint rubbed off this old lighthouse
as you open the door and peek in.
You notice the roof starting to douse
and the walls are growing thin.

You ladder up the dark, creaky stairs
You approach to the top
and smell the fresh PE Island air
as from each ocean's drop.

Your eyes take all of the ocean blue.
You shiver from the excitement and the cold
as your skin musters up the morning dew.
You stand and watch as the ocean waves fold.

Safety
Crystal Freda Nov 2017
Under
the warmth
of His embrace
I am in
my peaceful place.
Love and destiny
wrap me up smoothly
as I conquer
each circumstance
as it roughly be.
His arms protect
me as a bird's
nest.
Full of safety
and rest.

Everywhere I turn...
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Everywhere
I turn,
there is nature
in need
of description
and meanings
much greater.
Everywhere
I turn,
there are
words to be
explored
and many
stories to be
poured.
It's about of
who I am.
I can never
let it go.
I'm a butterfly
full of words
that charters
and glows.

[ We're together ]
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
We're together
when times get hard.
We're together
in this winter cold.
We're together
with this we hold
each other close
and never let go.
Just as long as
we're together
in this glistening snow.

Be the Sun
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Shine,
brighter than before.
Glimmer,
way above the shore.
Sparkle,
like a bright,yellow butterfly.
Radiate,
be the sun in the sky.
Beam,
like a shooting star.
Glitter,
be who you exactly are.

gusting leaves
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
cold breezes
brush and crush
these colored, withered
leaves.
winds gust
against these dying
trees.

Avalanche
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Bundles,
piles,
and mounds of snow
trampled on this mountain.
No living things appeared.
All there was
white,
cold,
and frozen
substance of snow.
Rumble,
roar,
and tussle
the mountain made.
Slowly then faster.
The sky
was gray and ashy
as the rumbling continued.
So the sounds became actions.
Mounds,
pounds,
and hills of snow
tumbled and plunged.
Loud, blasting sounds
grew stronger and stronger.
Slowly they began to stop
and terminate and cease.
Sounds came again as peaceful
as the quiet mountain
returned to normal.

Little Locket
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
A small white box
laid inside a little
sliver heart locket.
Around her neck,
she smiled her
sweet toothless smile.

She eyed the world...
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
She gazed out her plane window
focusing on each white, puffy cloud.
She looked over to see all the people
doing their own thing in the crowd.
She wondered if any of them
had ever flown in a plane,
they all seemed relaxed.
They all seemed the same.
This plane ride was novel to her,
she wanted to explore this great wide world.
This was her first adventure
as a newly adult girl.
She looked down at her jeans
and brushed back her brown, silky hair.
She began to really question
how long she'd been in the air.
She quietly watched below
all the large buildings so small.
She turned to everyone
and wondered if they felt this way at all?
She was excited for her destination,
she tried to contain it at heart
She was ready for a rising adventure,
a fresh, brand new start.

Rain of Pain.
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
I'm scared.
I'm in a midnight tunnel
that never sees the light of day.
I am covered in fear
that never seems to go away.
Decisions haunt me.
I struggle to let go.
I hate this panic and pain,
hunger for something new.
I want sunshine instead of rain.
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
We don't need people to tell us
or things to think of us as more.
We don't need lots of attention
or more waters on your shore.
You and I are beautiful
just the way we are.
It may be something you hear a lot
but you are perfect even with your scars.
Love yourself.
You are important.
Don't forget it
because you are not forgotten.
Oct 2017 · 229
Angel Of Light
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
An azure sky
received a blaze of light
shining with wings so broad
soaring with great height.
So freeing and liberating
and magical flight.
Shine glowing
as snowy white
glimmering in the day
and in the night.
Overflowing with beauty
is this glorious sight.
Oct 2017 · 99
Live
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
I can conquer any obstacle
any mountain too steep
suppressing no sleep.
Nothing is impossible.
I can stand
when I am weak
when times are bleak
and nothing is planned
I can live forward
abide and testify
and to live by
my Saviour and Lord.

A Peaceful Stroll.
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
A stroll in the calm scenery
a swift breeze at your face
New beginnings start this season
as you stroll along in the park.

Blossoming colors spread all around
Mind and eyes capture and marvel
Every green, yellow, gold, red, and orange
all draw close to a picture reflecting on your eyes.


Crumbled leaves brushing on the ground
other leaves cling and slowly hang on branches
Leaves crunch as your polished boots prance away.
Fall's season begins your peaceful amble.
Oct 2017 · 127
Desire
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Inhale the sweet smells
of the Holy Spirit
Overflowing wells
of His great love.
Dance and rejoice
with awing feelings
at the sound of His voice
and seeking His face.

Hidden Highlands.
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Below the majestic sky
lies a mountain so high.
Sacred places rise at the peak.
Destiny and adventure for all who seek.
The climb is quite steep
but the sight will make your heart leap.
As you approach the top,
turn around and stop.
There is a boulder in the way
of a secret passage here to this day.
Turn it over and feast your eyes
to the wonder of a glorious surprise.
Behind this giant rock
lies a wonderland that's quite a shock.
Hills, flowers, butterflies, and more.
Your eyes wander and soar.
More adventure is soon to arrive
with each image you feel so alive.
Oct 2017 · 93

Don't stand back

Violet Night Sky.
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Vibrant, violet skies
as the moonlight
glimmers over your eyes
catching this stunning sight.
Thousands of stars
glitter so high
below Mars
right in this bright sky.
Up on the mountain
rising above the land
towering a fountain
of stars so grand.

Autumn Timberland.
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Leaves flee in the dusk
near a fine ending in this evening
bringing a musk
in the air in a fragrant mist.

Surpassing the land
lies radiant shades
held in the midrib or strand
fluttering and drifting in the wind.

Up high in the gentle breeze
leaves take flight and travel
Leaving their safe place in the trees
all embracing the taste nature brings.
Oct 2017 · 159
Wait and Trust.
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
I sit and wait
like a lingering vine
whose fruit hasn't bloomed yet.

Everything is gone
except for God
who knows what He's doing.

I need to trust
more than I think I can
to be brave.

Pain hampers
my aching heart,
I wait and trust.

Someday my spirit
will be full of jubilation
as He planned.
Oct 2017 · 178
[ What He did ]
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
What He did
will never be forgotten.
What He did
will never be forsaken.

What He did
was a precious moment.
His suffering
will always be a bestowment.

Getting to know Him
because He survived.
Our hearts have embraced,
flourished, and thrived.

His blood
beats through our soul
lingering to our body
and transforming us as whole.

[ Trapped ]
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Trapped
in the same day.
Over and over
and Iit won't go away.
Trapped
in one time frame.
Running again.
Always the same.
Trapped.
Can't reach.
Forced in be secluded
to a breach.
Trapped
in a forced mentality.
Chained.
Wanting to be free.
Oct 2017 · 109
Stargazing.
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Laying in the grass
gazing at each star.
Watching each one sparkle
away so far.

Look at each twinkle.
Every constellation
rising in the charcoal sky
in this large nation.

Millions and millions
flashing much they be.
Below these heavenly jewels
on the ground is me.
Oct 2017 · 119
Blissfully Yours.

You hold my spirit

Seashell ( Acrostic)
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Splashing color all around.
Each wave 's crashing sound.
Around the dusty sand
Swirls of shells on the land.
Hurdles of colorful coral
Every tint so floral.
Loveliness on the shore.
Looking for more.

Letter to pain.
Crystal Freda Sep 2017
Dear Pain and hurt,

I've let you tangle me.
I've let you strangle me.
No more from you.
I can't let you through.
You've given me discomfort
and extreme anguish and suffer.
This has got to stop.
No more sorrow, not a drop.
You will not control me.
You will not troll me.
I am more than you.
You cannot come through.

Sincerely good-bye,
you need to die.
