The power of love
Stronger then the bond of love
Stronger then the bond of shared values
Is the bond of shared pain.
Forever connected are those
who shared a  tragedy.
And still it’s because of love that we survive!

Colorful  and diverse
A real fantasy world out there

Diverse sea life
Necessity for Earth

Precious sea life

Healthy oceans are necessary for a healthy Earth.
So let’s all take care.

And by reading she lived it all.
She was there, she was she.
And the whole world opened.
You are what you read

Set free mind, body and soul.
Let behind the world you’re in.
Go to places in your mind, see!
And you’ve been there.

Fresh start.
When a smile warms the heart
Sun shines everywhere
Clovers covering the ground
Time for a fresh start anywhere.
New season of the heart
Sorrows and turbulence will  stay but.....
looked at , in a different way.
Time to let go of the past
Think of things
Soothing for the heart
Let the love melt in within
You are on your way
To better things .
Always stay good at heart .

Great egret
Morning sunbeams on peaceful streams
Creating moving glittering waters,
changing dewdrop leaves in golden nuggets
Between shining gems the birds take off
Flying gracefully towards the sun
where breeding time awaits
With hoarse croak they leave.

symbol on more then one coin
For strength and longevity you stand.

Walking alone in the shadows of the dark
No one saw her

And the whole world fell silent
You can feel pure vibrations reaching your soul
Everyone has quality
Everyone counts.

No matter who you are

You matter.
Just because you exist.

Poppy love
Three sunrises I’ll be here.
Ephemerals bright red.
Field of color, vibrant waving
Until sun sets,
watching poppies breeze dancing wild.
Letting go in soft nuances
inviting night to steal the show.

Nyctinasty,
closing petals while you fly.
Remembering lost loved ones
Saying once again goodbye.
Forever peace, lay to rest
I’ll surround you my loved one
with field of only poppy love.

Thank you
Dear friend,
You walk with me and hold my hand
On days there is no sun
for me
No rainbow on grey sky
You listen to my agony
Even wipe my tears when I cry.

All you do to make me forget
To make me smile again
I know I always can count on
you when everyone else
has left.

You’re also the first to call
and ask me “friend how are you”
The last to leave my side
In the darkest of my days
You never walk away.

Dear friend you are very dear to me.
The best friend one can have.
You really are my mainstay.
A lightbeam in my dark.
I want to let you know
today and say
“ Thank you”.

Thank you my friend.

Special time
It all starts with the beauty
of one Christmas bell,
family. and friends together
That special feeling, like a spell
Beginning of this wonderful symphony.
For others a special time in other ways
Missing of that special someone
Gone unexpectedly, left without a say
but a melody in the heart and tears in the eyes.
Many in solitude, no one left to share.
Sitting, waiting
Praying to let this season pass.
Let us be there for those who need us
To let the meaning of this symphony
be one of harmony  between us all.

Let  this season be one with true meaning.

It was an intense heatwave before.
The Earth warming, cooking, boiling.
Water cooks over.
Silence.
Then it rained and rained, it didn’t  stop.
From heatwave to heavy rain to flood.
Flood created an ocean where millions of people lived.
Source of outbreaks,
disease, famine, homelessness
poverty of the poor.
What have these innocent people done?
But isn’t it we, the people who don’t care! To let it come this far knowing what causes extreme changes in weather everywhere?
Many lost their lives,many their homes.
Desperate people
Children with fear
Forever traumatized, not knowing what to do or where to go.
No home, no food , the lost of loved ones, all in one.
Can’t grasp fully the impact yet.
In shock, can’t feel a thing.
Yet many tears,
so much sadness in the air
Forever traumatized ….
Earth in need of change to survive.

There is unbearable heat.
Unstoppable fire
Flood creating oceans
Weather disasters everywhere
How can one not see.
If world leaders don’t change their priorities
whole planet Earth will be flooded when they decide to take care.
Today it’s Pakistan, next?

Moon smile 😊
I was searching for the Moon above in coral blue sky
Suddenly I saw one big yellow eye
hanging low, watching me walk
A “ wow “ is all I could say.
I was surprised and happy to see
my Moon where I didn’t expect her to be.
Moon you are leaving to welcome the Sun
but already made my day so
thank you for making me smile.

History
Going with a little canoe over the river to the unknown, big waves and some dolphins to see.
Enjoying the view had no clue where we would go.
Ended up where there were fishermen.
Fishing and searching for *****
Then we walked under beautiful big old trees, saw the destination right before me.
A museum under open sky with things from our natives, slavery and from
the war.
Saw wigwams covered in dry leaves and colored tents. Many cannons  and prisons as to expect in battle land.
It was a memory lane through history.
Very special and precious so much to learn and to see.
Still a romantic date it was, taking a stroll under old trees, on a sunny day with a breeze from the sea.
It was a date with historical value
The date now also history.

So much so.......
Everytime you are broken
So much so that you must cry
Everytime you are broken
So much so  you fall apart
Fall apart
in so much pieces.
So much so you want to die
Everytime you are broken
So much so .......
It’s time to write
Write it down
its time for healing
So much so
to never again
fall apart.

A good reflection of all humans beautiful in their own special way.

Hear your mother calling.

Singing the song of harmony.

Rainbow candy
Yum, when I look above
I see cotton candy in the sky
With imagination I see
Ice cream castles and
soft gummy bears, oh my!
But when I see a rainbow I can taste the colors, sour to sweet
A real candy ribbon that’s what I see.
All kinds of fruit in a long bubble gum.
Yes I almost taste it and it makes me smile.

Tender is the soul.
Tender is the soul
hidden in it’s core
Tender is the soul
of those who
lived through pain
and used all tears
Who seem hard now.
Tender is the soul
while there is no softness

For he learned long ago
how to hide.
Still... tender is the soul.
All it takes is love and he will cry.

Homeless child
On the music of the wind
She started dancing
Listening with closed eyes
Felt sunbeams on her skin
Yet another hard day to go through
on an empty stomach
in this no one’s land.
Bare ground is my bed
and everything for that matter.
I watch nature
Hope nature watches me.
God keep the wind soft
Let the sun keep shining
In this dark cold world of mine
So that I can keep on dancing
in my imagination.
Keep surviving.
One day at a time.

God is inside each of us
Let His word breathe within.
To make all that is bad, go away
To set us free from evils game,

Hold close to you , what He stands for.
Let His light in,

Now we can walk the darkest of paths
without fear
When God is near.

Oh fragile baby bird
With your shaggy feathers
Looks  like you are sad
Did you fall out from your nest
or did mama set you free?
you’re watching with fear so  blue
Seems you have no clue.
How to fly and to get by.

A lonely silent passerine.
Sitting , watching,waiting
Hoping that some day
She can fly too!

Sunflower’s head is down.
It’s raining today.
No sun to look at and glow.
Sunflower’s tears mixed with the rain.
Fell on the ground whispering a name.
Then out of nowhere a rainbow appeared.
Saw sadness on Earth
and called out a name.
Sun appeared like on command.
Sunflower lift up her head and started to shine.
Winked at the ribbon of colors up in the sky.

Yes after the rain ribbon of candy
delivered the Sun.
A promise of light after the dark.
Of better times when things are bad.
Just never forget to
call out His name.
