In the old time west
Man was at his best 
In the wake of the new dawn
Cowboys were filled with pride and brawn

Riding across the grassy range
They thought naught much of change
Man's promise's was his word
His voice was always heard

The fire within the night 
Kept him warm till light 
Old bones spoke of times past
The creak of a saddle was to last

Generations of spirits walk
Within a cowboys talk
They are a different breed
Riding there grande steeds

Passion lights within those eyes
Campfire stories of all they tried 
Strength and courage go beyond
The reflection you see in the pond 

They know and feel a real romance
In this truth they take the stance
Family and pride is not kept at bay
Within those lines he never strays 

For what is ingrained he will do battle
Whether for wife, family or cattle
For this is the cowboy way
Still on the range to this day
Carol Huizinga Mar 2010
I lie my head upon my pillow
I think of this imaginary fellow
I have faith he is coming my way
Unbecoming thoughts I need to keep at bay
It is so easy to feel not good enough
My looks compared to society is tough
Because inner beauty no longer means much
Nobody understands a compassionate touch
Clothes more expensive than our rent
I think people have become a litte bent
No longer does the world shoot from the heart
We worry more what is on the wall for art
Children being taught so young to model
Plastic parents those we do need to throttle
We are teaching beauty is only skin deep
Pop a few more pills it will help you be sleek
My fellow he will stop inside and see
The difference between them and me
That nothing else in this life will matter
Nor in this world will he ever feel battered
He will forever know I am a gift from above
I will wash his feet in the purest love
My man will know my heart can never be sold
He seeks with me a true passion to unfold
Spirit sought this soul to mirror only mine
Knowing our unity in this heaven will be divine
Reflections of love within our beautiful eyes
Our souls are bare no need to be in disguise
He knows I will never think to close the door
It will not matter whether we are rich or poor
There is no better place for him to be
Than coming home to be with me
So as I close my eyes to go to sleep
I send him the sweetest dreams to keep
Until he is once again within my arms
Flames from our fire setting off the alarms
So I may never be a pretty barbie doll
Nor do I love to go shopping at the mall
But I see the beauty in the smallest things
Angels gave unto me the truest music to sing
For my words will only be spoken to the one
Who is willing to live in the warmth of my sun

Life's strenuous milestones 
At times chill us to the bone
Were no longer soft and pliable
Seeing that nothing in life is reliable
Tornados swirl around our thoughts
Our heart and soul feel wrought
Nothing glistens within our smile
Anger and betrayal leave us riled
One shadow after another we gain 
Surrounding our soul in a black stain
True love a memory diminished 
Our lives like this poem left unfinished
Carol Huizinga Sep 2010
Why did I?
Maybe because I wanted to try
Step out of the world I live
In many ways I am not sorry I did
Reflections of what I touch
Shining within me so much
What is so hard to understand?
The capabilities of this land
I see through different eyes
Only to myself did I lie
No one else to blame
I still remain the same
Or do I?
Why then do I cry?
I wanted the illusion
Of a true intrusion
To the depth of my being
What I am constantly seeing
Simply not so
Back into my world I go!

Why do people not believe in mystery?
It has been around in all the history
Seen in the beginning of all creation 
From the first cells of gestation
Time and time again we've seen proof
Yet we as humans remain aloof
My eyes always remain surprised
How many people are disguised
Into believing science is the be all
Until angels save us from our fall

It was blank
Part of my brain stank
It was dead
Inside my head

This stroke took me miles away
The funny thing was the smiles
I did not know what just perspired
So therfore I just admired

Nothing seemed to bother me
It was like I just wanted to be
The light was surrounding
Bringing me to a good grounding

In essence I felt so far away
It was just me everyday
Nothing else mattered
Life was no longer tattered

I thought wisdom & gifts were gone
I could not longer help lives along
Strangely enough, I become more
More of what I used to adore

Words were no longer what I needed
Blissful energy is what I greater
Alone, I rebuilt my life to light
Archangel Micheal was my flight

The stars, the moon, the sun
Are my way to run
Darkness is no longer around
I will never allow myself that sound!
Carol Huizinga Sep 2010
The waves came crashing in
What I was to do was a sin
As I walked toward the sea
I knew my life was meant to be
Gently stepping forward to begin
The coldness began to sink in
Stopping when I was waist deep
Wondering was the path too steep
I turned to look around
Nothing was making a sound
Just the drumming of the waves
Darkening around my soul like a cave
Murkiness started to surround me
My mind knowing it was all I could see
Water began to fill my lungs
My heart started speaking in tongues
As my listless body began to sink
My lungs took that last drink
For in the world around
I am now no longer bound

Inside I am empty and drained
My tears flow like fallen rain
I see the pool of water at my feet
As I look for the sign of the next street
I am trying hard not to be bitter
Not clogging my head with litter
I do not want to trip and fall
Hitting my head on the walls
It hurts and cuts way too deep
The downfalls I refuse to reap
I will surely take the higher road
I don't want extra baggage on this load
I can untangle the web I have weaved
In this I am truly relieved
My feet ladened move on ahead
For I refuse to live as if I am dead
Beyond I see the crossroads before me
Continuing forward I see what is meant to be
Street lights make my way bright
For future steps to take flight
Soon the trail of tears will cease
Then I will feel the true release
I will again walk on sacred ground
Inner peace again the only sound
Then others will follow in my prints
In the eyes I see the sparkling glints
Rain no longer falls down our cheeks
We now have only beauty and light to seek

I am drowning in a dark pool
Taking the negative to a duel
I summon energy with all my might
Whom will win this final fight?
Behind me stands all that is good
They, in front wear the dark hood
I pray to my almighty mother
As we circle around each other
She continuously walks with me
Giving me the love I share I see
My heart’s strength cannot shatter
I will not be conquered or battered
For I speak the truth of life
Never remaining in your strife
For they silently follow
Ready to swallow
The lost souls are bound
Never again to be found
In darkness they are lost
Evil to them is boss
But I will never give in
Not ever to this sin
I grasp at the power
My soul never to sour
The sword is within my hand
Swinging no mercy where evil lands
Light and love
Always rises above
In us is always the smallest spark
It’s not always given to the dark
You might have won at a time
When self abuse was our crime
But now we stand strong in relief
That love and passion are our belief
You cannot have me or my friends
This is where your path ends
Go back where you came from
My cords are about to strum
As we spread our simple song
For those who have been waiting so long
Climbing this huge mountain
Being washed in mothers’ fountain
Souls full of serenity and peace
Across this land is now released
Whispers are now heard
On the wings of birds
A good riddance I bid the dark beings
The mother’s true light sending them fleeing
For within the swirling light
It was easy to take this flight
Because we have the upper hand
Spirits are the music of the band

In that moment I felt all your strife
As I felt the blade of your knife
Cut through the heart of my soul
You never understanding it's true role

My blood spilling on the floor
You turned your back on all we adored
What changed that moment of life
Making you see only the blade of your knife

Innocence is now but a torrid scar
Everybody's gaze lands on me from afar
You took the beauty from my sleep
Nightmares just make me want to leap

You were lord and master of this house
Me and the kids tip toed like a mouse
Your every desire your every wish
I served the next meal upon your dish

No longer am I who I was inside
You took away every ounce of self pride
But that moment they took me out that door
My true light and soul started to soar

Never again will I feel your pain
No more of my soul will you gain
My spirit soars above the clouds
I now speak my truth out loud

I walk this journey now alone
No more sins do I need to atone
This thing: freedom, I this day do feel
No more laughter will you steal

My children's innocence need not halt
I must teach them it is not their fault
They must learn to see beauty within
On that day their life will truly begin

Now you will understand my cage
There who will put up with your rage
You stare wistful through those bars
Finally we see the beauty of the stars

I pray everday to my God above
In his grace I will lay my love
Everyday we become stronger
In fear we live no longer

The wind whispered a grain of sand
From his tightly woven hand
Sending it spiraling towards the earth
Was this the time of his rebirth?
He needed to seek and to find
The new ideas upon his mind
Preparing morter for a new foundation
Constructing the true gift of elation
Eyes glistening like sapphire jewels
He glanced around for new tools
He realizes there is no atonement
Armor not needed in future moments
Darkness of previous times has ended
Within the light he has ascended
No longer lost nor buried in the sand
Ready now to take charge of his land
Unaware of the sweat upon his cheek
He climbs knowing the path is never too steep
For within the whispers of the wind
He knows no beginning nor an end
Grasping again to the hilt of his sword
Knowing sadness never again to be lord
Now he sees every grain of sand
Sparkling like diamonds in his hand
His soul returned to it's innocent grace
Smiles again cross this handsome face

As a child I thought they stole
The true essence of my soul
I walked without innocence
Listening in vain for my penance
Searching I journeyed to and fro
To realize I had no great place to go
I wandered through my emotions
Which sent my life in locomotion
Not being quite able to see
The beauty that was within me
People would tell me I was a gift
My mind blocking it I would go stiff
Surley if they could see the past
The love for me would never last
Not once did I see my own light
I was way too caught up in my own fight
One wretching hurt sent me stopping
I finally seen all my own mocking
Sick and depressed my heart was crushed
I wanted dearly to become a drunken lush
I was tired of carrying this extra person
A deep look inside sent me cursing
Nobody on this earth can take away
The God soul given to me that day
Still as innocent as freshly first birthed
When I crossed this threshold to earth
I did allow my emotions to take it all on
When it was their burden for the wrongs
Being grateful not resentful towards them
I finally saw I was a beautiful shinning gem
Daily I learn this human suit I am to wear
Has no bearing on the soul I have to bare
With my angels we keep it locked and stored
I see the reflections now on my own accord
What the world thinks of me or this poem
It has no bearing on how I am going home
The voice whispers innocence within my mind
Beauty and grace is my angel soul intertwined
Channeling spirits from above where I belong
Speaking this truth I will forever stand strong
This battle of emotions never happening again
For now I see I am a true princess within

The dreams in my sleep
Are not the ones I want to keep
Walking with my eyes open wide
My thoughts need to glide
A million miles away
Isn’t where my world will stay
My thoughts have become clear
Answers in my life are near
Sometimes it is a delicate thing
This understanding life brings
Realizing pain comes and goes
When it will end nobody knows
Life is not read like a book
Have we ever stopped and taken a look?
Or are we wandering lost souls
Uncaring of our worlds tolls
Does someone need to turn on our light?
So we don’t forever sleep through our nights
Nightmares happen all the time
We just need to keep in rhyme
For if we were to lose the beat
We would forever sleep
Echoes of the old sounds
We would no longer be around
Missing the feeling of the soft rain
Being able to wash away our pain
Grasp the warmth of the sun
Take a moonlight run
Remember this is the way life goes
Don’t become swallowed by her woes

In fleeting moments I have read

That your soul is not dead

Intrige spreads across the page

I see you wanting out of your cage

Time to honor your journey of soul

So once again you will live whole

I see hope of a new promise

With a man named Sir Thomas

I saw those sad eyes many years ago

Only your sail goes the way it knows

It shall be interesting where the tide will take

Really it is only the shadow you will forsake

A ladder has been given to climb the wall

Will you give a hand?  Or watch it once again fall?

What is friendship
Is it a lightship
A warning
That you shall be mourning

You give it your all
Somehow to have it stalled
Being alone now most of the time
This is a huge big mountian to climb

Imagine a friend who leaves you
While you are hurt and blue
Stating it seems to be alright
They are mad at someone elses plight

Let me see
Do you agree
My feeling were hurt
It is the dirtiest dirt

Why read someones texts
This leaves me hexed
Why why why
Makes me seriously want to cry

Therefore you loose many friends
One persons opinion can end
Someone who loves me for real
What a ****** deal

One can never bring you down
Enemies are literally a sound
That you bring to your life
Maybe you like or dislike the knife?

Thank God for angels
A love that enables
It leads you to leadership
Allowing you wonderful new relationships

Crying brings you past mourning
Flying closer to soaring
Within love
Sincerly it does come from Above!
Carol Huizinga Sep 2010
Angel's love is in my soul
Sometimes the world just takes its toll
I hear their whispers in my ear
But I am too busy with my fallen tears
My mind conspires against itself
With the negativity it has been dealt
I struggle in the darkness of night
Hoping soon again I will see some light
The tangled web I seem to weave
Breaking their hold trying hard to achieve
To run away from the pain
Being cleansed by angel's fallen rain
Reaching, striving, fighting tooth and nail
I climb, I crawl so slow like a snail
Every day I try to let their brightness shine in
The more I do I feel I wasn’t born a sin
My angels are my guardians, my friends
With their love there is no beginning, no end
No judgements are whispered across the wind
I need only to feel worthy of the greatness they ascend
I am no longer lost, in angels I am found
Destined to show their greatness I am bound

Hey did you know I was a poet
Some of you might have known it
One day I started to write a few lines
My goodness they really did rhyme
I might put them all in a book
If you’re lucky I will give you a look
But then you will have to see
How ******* up I can be
Or maybe you would see how deep
Reading how my soul likes to creep
In cracks and crevices of the mind
Emotions I like to send you to find
My words may or may not have meaning
I cannot please you all I am no genie
I am sure one of you will dwell within
Come on lets go look beyond; it is no sin
Feel the infinity of your own wave
Before you go to your human grave
Let the spirit bubbles overflow
Watch how you will begin to glow
You just might find who you are
Seeing peace was never too far
Before you go wouldn’t it be nice to know
The grace of love was not just a show
You can still be an angel and devil like me
As long as your true self shines for all to see
so you might not like my rhyme
But we so do thank you for your time
I pray, I hope, your love and learning never end
Blessings I send to all of you my sweet dear friends

Honesty is a lost art
Nobody wants the part
We are all actors
No attention to factors
We forget what it is to feel
Now we just want to steal
Floundering through life
Stabbing others with our knife
Wasting away inside
Stopping to say we did try
What did we stop and do
Except be so totally untrue
Wow that is the new fashion
Sending many hearts smashing
Selfishness is the treason
That is the only reason
We plant these seeds
To flourish the field in weeds
We blow them across the land
In these weeds we take our stand
We nourish our sorrow, our pain
Excusing our plans of future gain
I may at times stumble
My heart may rumble
But I am glad this one I walk alone
Going to sit upon my favorite stone
Watching the flowers wave in the breeze
Spreading there pollen to make me sneeze
I rest upon a bed of rose petals
For no less again will I settle
I am worthy of much more
Than the weeds you pick and store
So as we harvest our crops
My life blooms, your life stops
Exactly where you left it
Collecting the weeds where you sit
So I bid you farewell
My flowers are to0 pretty not to smell
I go without causing harm, no foul
Should've believed I threw in the towel

Silence falls across the land
Some may not understand
That light becomes night
But do you have the sight?
Tick tock goes the clock
Broken hearts turn to rock
They have lost the rhyme
The beating drum is off time
Happiness is a choice
Within the truth of our voice
Don't allow shadows to win
Next moments are to begin
Matters not who, or what they are
Stop, look, see that falling star
Shadows are not a reality
Only an emotional fatality
I give you a thought, a smile
Maybe only for a short while
People always come and go
Reason we don't always know
But, I do know this for certain
Pure gold lies under your curtain
Time to cut those binding strings
Open them; allow the light to bring
Magic and miralces to you
Your soul knows it is true
Loudly annoucing it is the time
To once again find your rhyme
Tick tick goes the clock
Challenging you to crush the rock

I could spend many hours writing to you
But in the end I would start to feel blue
Without the hope of holding your hand
I might as well bury my body in sand
For writing my mind, my soul, my thoughts
Only gives me memories of what I don’t got
I cannot give up my hope to go on
It is the only way to never give up my song
On this site I could have many friends
But that is not the way I want it to end
I want to meet somebody one day
I give my heart, soul, body to stay
I will never stop believing prayers are answered from above
It’s the only thing keeping my smile, my soul flying like a dove
When you read my words
It makes your spirit fly like a bird
I know you understand
You are a kind considerate man
If you cannot open your heart
Just tell me from the start
I will walk away moving on
Nothing is lost, nothing is gone
I would be happy you understand part of me
We could touch, we could feel and see
You’re an angel of light I can see that even tho we are apart
I am thankful for that opportunity of growth in my heart
You’re not ready to explore your heart in your hand
So I am bound to keep walking across this land

Oh my God I have found love
It fits me like a glove
We have been seen together
I feel so much better
I saw his eyes
Such a beautiful prize
His arms reach around me
The kiss was so meant to be
Wait, wait, lets get this straight
This was only a half hour date
$1.92 coffee makes me fall in love
I blast him with a shove
Who do you think you are
My words leave a scar
But seriously think about it
It seems love has quit
Nobody has time
For this rhyme
Carol Huizinga Sep 2016
It is in my grasp
I see it
I feel it whispering
Twinkling between the leaves
On the wings of a butterfly
Soaring on the eagles wings
Mother this is what is meant for me
Go back to remembering
Karmatic lessons follow you
When will you cut those cords
Freedom awaits you
Carol Huizinga Sep 2016
You wish to yell out and say
I wish not to be prey
Prey of someone's fallen heart
I do not wish to be pulled apart

I want someone to know me
Just allowing me to be
But when this happens
It sends you into action

Who am I
My heart cries
For over 40 years
So many want to domineer

You are so compassionate
All you see is very accurate
But who sees my soul
Look down the scroll

One day
A person came my way
Seen that I needed to heal
Somehow, I did not like this deal

But once you are alone
My mind was blown
It is true
My heart grew!
Carol Huizinga Mar 2010
In sadness I cry
For once again I tried
Interpret the signs
Of a love that binds
To touch a part
Of my heart
That has never been found
Still listening forthe sound
I move forward on
Seeking the new dawn
Washing away the pain
Of the truth I cannot gain
One day I will learn
To call the one I yearn
He is waiting for me
I need to open and see
Stop wasting time
On the ones who don't rhyme
With the sounds of my soul
Standing in truth of my goal
I look behind no more
On the wings of a dove I soar
Angels pick up my feet
Showing the trail is never too steep
For the love I have within
Never to share would be a sin
I am so cherished and loved
I fit in my angel wings like a glove
So as I bow my head
The tears are dead
What will be will be
As God walks with me
Holding my hand
As I cross this land
Once again
I begin
Listening for the sound
Of where my soul is bound

Why do we hurt the little ones?
If we were not ready we should have had none
For often we become what we fear
Acting like our parents is near
Why can we just not love?
Promising them that we will rise above
For if we ourselves were abused
What is the reason we make our children feel used?
They should be cuddled and hugged
Not running second best to our latest drug
We allow our mates to ****
Don’t we realize it’s our blood we spill?
It’s very sad we cannot learn
For what a child does yearn
To be number one
Second to none
Mom and Dad not to be mean
To live a life happy and clean
We all have bad days
But we shouldn’t make them slaves
To what we have been through
We must soon realize it is true
Before all our children are lost
All these kids becoming our next boss
Take a look at our changing world
All the bombs being hurled
Maybe we should take a look inside
Realize where the blame lies

Love whispers softly
As we enjoy our morning coffee
The sparkle in your eye
When you hug and touch me goodbye
The smile that comes upon my face
When my mind drifts in your space
Watching you stand proud and tall
Ready to take on them all
The sweet kiss upon my lips
You hands on my body running amiss
Shivers from your touch
Make me realize so much
Forever a soft place to lie my heart
Something no one can part
A special place only we know
I've been hit by the arrow of your bow
I have touched something unique
Now my journey is complete
Because now love whispers softly
While we drink our morning coffee

I fell in love with a ghost
It was a harder lesson than most
We walked centuries before
I had no idea this was in store
Glimpses of the warrior's being
Sent my soul seeking and seeing
A small reflection of what used to be
It did carry my soul for a time in me
But then the shadows would return
The flames to my soul it did burn
How could you lose this battle
Hanging your sword upon the mantle
Why did the shadow take you away
Where I am afraid you will forever stay
I cannot tell you the answer is near
Your true soul I will always hold dear
I will love this ghost warrior for life
Sending him blessings in his strife
Hoping one day he will find the way
In truth his being will live again in day
I can wish it were different
That I made an impact on time spent
But in pain and shadows I cannot live
To the human race I have to give
The ability to walk on this sacred ground
Not desecrate the gifts given nor that I have found
Loving a ghost is like loving a dream
The warrior lost the battle of esteem
Loving the memory of what once was
Is not enough to continue this cause
Without bringing me to the shadows
Instead of riding in the sweet meadows
I haven't lost my sword nor light
I do falter sometimes in the fight
But the darkness cannot win within me
Plainly it was never meant to be
Angels in droves surround me within
Leaving you never felt like a human sin
All your conscious answers were here
Instead you held your shadows near
Hopefully in the next life ahead
The shadows will not keep your soul dead
Because the world is missing your sword's touch
But mostly we all miss the ghost of you so much
I wish the world did not take it's toll
Forever I will love the ghost of your true soul
But in this human race
I no longer see your face

You were born into my hands
Screaming & crying you came out
Instantly I knew I would keep you
Always, I wanted a red girl
Attitude you had
Especially when you would cross your legs
Looking at someone saying I do not want you to pet me
I am better
You so lived up to your name
A beauty
You showed so well
Winning out of all of Canada
I have never been so proud
Everyday I miss you
I miss hugging and loving you
Always by my side in good or bad times
I was never alone
For you were with me
Now you are my guardian angel
With Mom & Dad and others
Sending me so many things
That I know you walk with me
My beautiful red girl
I wish you would have lasted another 11 years
But I was so blessed to even have you for a day
I am thankful I spent so much time with you
Especially before you left
Thank you my gorgeous angel
Mom will always love you!

What do I miss the most
As I watch these human ghosts
Walk endlessly within the mind
Not able to stop and find
Simple answers to the questions
Making it a huge election
Instead of stopping to feel
Is the beating heart real
Does blood flow through my veins
When I bleed does it stain
Ah let's think about that some more
Because we may open a closed door
What would happen as it creaks
Slightly open where light seeks
Will we actually step forward to see
That is the true question to be
Maybe then we would understand
The ghost that we are walking this land

Silence
it's a best friend,
within silence lies a beauty
untouched,
the most exquisite moments
never need words,
nor explanations!
Or others silence may seem deafening,
but listening to it speaks volumes, 
moments of silence either way are victory!
It just may not have been the silence
you wanted to hear!

You cannot hurt me
Because I can see
Within my soul
Others may not be gold
I am not blinded
Do you need to be reminded?
My lesson is learnt
This heart is not burnt
Nor will it ever
Hurt to that endeavor
Mirror mirror on the wall
I will never take that fall
I wiped away those stains
Never to produce pain
To another
Not you, nor sister, or brother
From very young that was my vow
Because of this I live in the NOW
I love those who cross my path
Good or bad you do the math
Questions? Do leopards change their spots
Or should they just be forgot
Left in the huge worldly pile
Of unawakened minds who cannot smile

Our heart’s depth will shine
Illuminating miracles of light
Mirroring the truth of our lives
In a sparkling diamond mist
Souls merging in a dance
Intertwining our energies
To the lullaby in our souls
Merging the sweetness of bliss
Spiraling kindness and compassion
Engendering a magical world
Existing only in truth
To this warrior I give my heart, my soul
My heart, my soul never given to another
For truly only he will seek
The wisdom in the mirror
Reflecting our spirits' journey
Toward enlightenment
Binding our heart into one beat
I listen for the sound of our drum
For the legend has been told
The love will never cease
Redefining what to society
Is only a single word?
Our souls' eyes will teach
What the world yearns
In earnest to reach
The uniqueness of soul
As one we are complete
I will journey this earth
Within your angel wings
I have waited long
Only to simply learn
I have nothing within you to fear
Unto your eyes
I have no disguise
Until my last breath
Whispering in the wind
Will my love for you end

I am so confused as of late
How do I clean this slate?
Tears run rampid down my face
I have lost my own space
In my emotions I fumble
The voices in my head rumble
There has to be something wrong
Because I never seem to belong

I try so hard to have faith
Struggling light in my space
My emotions receive
My heart on my sleeve
I carry this burden inside
My tears are no longer dried
Screaming I question why
Understanding I so try
Everyday I am on my knees
Begging God to give me the keys
Why is it not meant to be
What is wrong with me
I gave it to you
I prayed it was true
Bringing me home to peace
This pain I forever release
This emotional battle I am drowning
I am lost to my surroundings
My words humbly spoken
I await your enlightened token
I only want to understand
Where these thoughts land
Drifting upon the ocean current
I question why I am so different
My tears drop upon your feet
God I know this we can beat
Help me not fall to this human role
God I have given you my soul
I close my eyes thankful to you
I know you aid me in being true
Please carry me through this time
Until I again hear my angels' chime

I see the point of direction
You visualize the pieces the sections
Of the puzzle you have been given
Although some of it remains hidden
I need to keep my soul free in flight
You struggle in what is wrong and right
In me there is so much more
When I finally stop having to close the door
When you might actually truly feel
What reality of what is real
There is only you and me
What exactly is meant to be
Neither of us knowing
Except what they, and we are showing
But sometimes we get off track
This I know as a fact
We each need to lead and follow
Each of us new things to swallow
We think, we ponder, we analyze
Me I know within what lies
Just as you know your ties
But unless we learn together
It will never be tethered
For us we both need the piece
Within each other’s reach
Trust in what is being shown
It will not be forever on a loan
IT is given as a fleeting chance
For us to have the first dance
IN whom we truly are
Yet we both keep so afar
Why do we ponder such a gift?
When we have been given a free lift
To rise above the given task
Instead of hiding within masks
Only time will tell the story
If we lose or win the glory

Great mother's spirit speaks through my word
What she transpires truly needs to be heard
We do not worship the greatness of our earth
Instead we fight endlessly over our own turf
Paying huge money traveling to **** her game
Mounting it on the wall to feel our own fame
Stripping trees from her precious mountains
Halting the streams flowing freely as fountains
Animals not a special totem nor a spiritual sign
How as people to her did we become so blind
Lazily no longer a society working our hands
To our continuous **** and pillage of this land
Mother's spirits watching from heaven so high
If only we could see the saddened tears she does cry
Feverishly to awaken they shake they shout
Ignoring the signs we continuously move about
Mother Earth unleashes to us her greatest fury
Oh it didn't affect my life so why should I worry
Spiritual masters try to teach peace and insight
But even they are overwhelmed to our plight
Under our own convictions this life will shatter
Grieving misunderstood lies we are so battered
Maybe we will then stop to look for redemption
She can wash us in forgiveness and exemption
Replenishing spirit in our mind body and soul
Might then we reach our destiny our final goal
Mother Earth patiently taking her sweet time
Hoping one day we set forth to go back to find
Our own spirits whispers of truth and integrity
Before unleashing her fury with no great pity
She's offered us many occasions to save face
Walking the ancient ways of her humble grace
Please listen to Mothers whispers in my voice
Before we are simply doomed with no choice

I wait so patiently
for the world to see
what I do know
it is such a blow
I listen to empty words
lies only to be heard
I wait for honor to win
seemingly that is now a sin
tick tock goes the clock
my heart turns to rock
slowly it stops beating
my life is retreating
saying it's last goodbyes
as I close my eyes
I gave up my life
to show you no strife
it was always your choice
to finally be the voice

This is the true story of the way
My imaginary circle began this day
My soul was seeking the light
Cold and shivering in the night
This path was meant to be
My spirit like the wind was free
Tears of sadness ran down my face
Depression crept around my space
Alone my soul wandered in time
My mind trying to find the rhyme
I am strong enough to follow this choice
I sat quietly listening for the voice
My human being crying in pain
Screaming what do I have to gain
I prayed in earnest for the sight
Of an eagle to journey within flight
Rising above this place called earth
I searched the darkness for my rebirth
Clouds parted I could begin to see
The moon in mystery speaking to me
Like the beautiful petals of a flower
I started to feel my own power
New blood coursed through my veins
The great spirit easing my strain
No longer a man who walks this land
I now stand a warrior in full command
My soul intertwined in a new love
Honored in wisdom from above
My soul seeks beauty on this earth
I thank the great spirit for my rebirth
For within my imaginary circle of space
I found the innocence of my own grace
As a warrior I will forever behold
The truth of my own soul
Written 2009 for a friend who went on a 4 day journey in the wilderness to find his soul.  This poem is his native name given to him later on his journey.

Pictures flash across my mind
Understanding I must find
I stand alone in this fight
Nobody can help with this sight
I want so much to believe
The words I want to retrieve
So the words become normal
Nothing fancy or formal
Just something within me
Lasting forever to be
Opening the flood gate
To my true destiny and fate
To the truth of my whole
That is my final goal
Shining not only for others
But in my own love I smother
Show the laughter and the joy
Not be like a decoy
Show the love I have been given
You’d understand how I've been livin'
How one tiny miniscule thing
Truly brings my soul to sing
For to it all I am connected
Nothing is ever rejected
Lessons are always taken
Never be mistaken
I am full of gratitude
Constantly changing my attitude
Enjoying the small joys of soul
Making me a better whole

You attached the beautiful spiraling string
Waiting for life, what it will bring
Like a puppet I dance the fight
Not to get tangled within your sight
Grasping, you pulled, I flew up high
Your lips bringing me to a soft sigh
Glimmers within your eyes
Those depths are my ties
I leap, I bound
Scissors not quite yet found
Why can you not feel the direction?
Make the simple connection
Can you not see how far it can go?
In beauty our souls can flow
Will you pull my string under?
In your thinking blunder
Or will you pull me within
Feel me like it’s not a sin
See me, mind open wide
Wearing gloves so you don’t slide
Down the spiraling string of life
Within your own soul's strife
You hold the scissors above
Simply I am the love

Cascade words softly 
Upon the one you love
Bare no judgement 
Behold them within
Bask in the silence 
Of unspoken words
Flow from a grace
Within an untouchable
Signature of soul
Carol Huizinga Sep 2010
Comprehend the fight
In trying to make it all right
Growing up feeling alone
What you see, chills to the bone
Your path never an easy walk
Hard to find your voice to talk
Never truly expressing your sight
Of what you see in darkness and light
The dreams in your sleep
Make your soul constantly weep
I dropped by to tell you a little story
Of a knight surrounded in glory
I’ve seen the beauty of your soul
Within the energy waves my angels hold
They told me to whisper in your ear
Remind you of how God holds you dear
In simple pride you must stand tall
The beauty you show us all to reach
Spoken words of truth to us you teach
The love and devotion you give so much
Really makes the difference to all you touch
There will never be anything less
For you have always been blessed
Swing upon your white stallion
Show you wear God’s medallion
As you're running through the fields
Know you're within God’s shield
You only need to see and believe
It’s always been there for you to receive
I see you running strong and free my friend
Beauty and magnificence never to end
Within the grace of his hand
Your steed carries you across this land

Please tell me how many men I have to kiss
Before I find one like you I missed
I still remember the fever of your touch
I wanted to walk with you that day so much
Softly you placed your hand upon my arm
Your muscles rippling from working on the farm
Innocently you grazed my lips with a kiss
All I could feel was a spiraling unknown bliss
Oh my God handsome this was all so wrong
Your passionate grip made me feel I belong
My mind was reeling but I had to walk away
I was in a relationship I could not stay
You are simply my one and only life regret
Although it is something I did learn to accept
I couldn't explore that fire in my own fashion
Although you are the first to match my passion
Imagine the places we could have explored
Leaving you that day I truly wanted to ignore
From that point on I was ruined for life
I was so unwilling to become an ordinary wife
I answered that nagging question in my mind
That neither you or myself were one of a kind
Men always becoming obsessed with my soul
I cannot feel their light only a sinking hole
I tried many times to hide my own feelings
But the lack of depth sends my heart fleeing
To this day I still search with a longing
Knowing it is out there I feel it so strongly
I need to feel a sweet angel touch my skin
To ignite that passion buried now deeply within
Healing and growing I have no need to hurry
Soon spirit will gift a gentleman to my journey
We will explore more than the first sweet kiss
Trust me when I say this one I will not miss
I know the difference of what love I need
I will no longer allow my inner being to bleed
I am worthy of great abundance from above
For the angels taught me the gift of true love

The black moon is here
Taking you to unbelievable fear
Deep you go within
Negativity is spreading on my skin

One night you have no sleep
Over & over you will creep
Darkness has surrounded you
Let me out, this is not true

I am not this anger and betrayal
No, no, really I am simply an earth angel
How can something take you so completely
Like drowning within the deep dark sea

Morning, you have fallen tears
You reach out hoping someone sees
But they cannot, they have not felt this pain
This pain is yours, each hour you gain

You are gaining who you have become
Not what was left behind within this ****
This subbconscious mind can play tricks
Adding so much to this mix

Evening comes along and you are different
Even tho you where back in times that where ancient
I was a ghost of memories of the past
I will no longer allow me to be harassed

Each step forward I am healed
My delivery is sealed
The black moon is here
I have nothing to fear

A butterfly landed on me today
Truly he made my day
I spoke with him awhile
What he told me made me smile
He said nothing in this world matters
We must end our constant chatter
To be able to open and see
All the glorious beauty to be
His message was something to grasp
The peace he brought me is to last
For it's not everyday I can say
Something precious came my way
That is why I know he was angel sent
His colors were so unique and different
To bring joy and happiness to my heart
So I would never walk a different start
Being one within God's adoring love
Knowing I have the ability to rise above
I am so truly blessed he came to me
Truth and compassion are meant to be
Like him I am unique in all I say
Angels' love on my journey everyday
I know my way of life is a choice
Moving people with my voice
Loving as we walk hand in hand
Like a butterfly across this land
Spreading laughter and joy
Like an innocent child with a toy
My words may be easy to conceive
But how many can truly receive
Expressions of love to behold
I am richer than all the world's gold
The truth is always within sight
As a butterfly my soul takes flight
It is so truly wonderful this day
That he decided to come my way
I am blessed to walk this earth
Until God takes me for my rebirth
Light dancing across my face
He then fluttered away in grace
Magic and miracles will never end
Goodbye my little butterfly friend
Carol Huizinga 2009......dedicated to Marlene who lost the battle to cancer in fall 2009, I so miss your sweet smile.

If only people could understand
Messages that cross this land
That there is not always a wow
When I sit before you in a bow
Angels speak across my mind
Trying to alleviate the bind
It is not always want we want to hear
As I watch your fallen tears
If you're blocked at this point
Your angels will not cross this joint
They will not tell history or ahead
Until you clear the cloud in your head
I wish I could perform the miracle you wish
I do bring to you food on a dish
But because you wish to hear different
Your energy will always be spent
I give you answers to your pain
But to you it seems lame
I am sorry you could not be open
As I watch you loping
Running far from you and me
So inside you will never see
Such a shame you ran away
It was a beautiful moment for you to gain
To reach that power you have inside
Realize your pain and cries
Are awaiting to be washed away
All you needed was to say
I am open, I can heal
No moments will again will it steal
To this negative earth we walk
In our angels we need to talk
The love and abundance we would feel
Would feed our next emotion meal
Healing and growing we would move on
Enjoying the dew of the new dawn
I always will do the best I can
To make you understand
I am not always the answer
For truly you are the dancer
I see what is needing
For you to stop bleeding
Only you can apply the bandage
If you could only manage
You would see the gift of love
I gave you from above
It is the answer you needed to see
You only just needed to be
I am sorry to you my friend
Prayers to you I forever send
To you I am not good enough
Lessons for you are too tough
That I cannot help
It is your hand dealt
I only try my best
I will never give any less
I am who I am
In this I take my stand
It is a gift from above
Only you cannot see the love
That is not my fault
You do not open your vault
I walk away strong and free
And you walk too blind to see

The time is here
for you to see what is near
greatness walks beneath your feet
new worlds for you to greet
living within your soul
your heart no longer to be consoled
seeing beams of radiant light
I watch your true soul take flight
seeing new sparkles in your eyes
to me is no surprise
I first saw your beautiful soul
from afar not long ago
spirits never again to be lowered
as time moves forward
now your time is on sacred ground
you need only to listen for this sound
time to fly within the wings
enjoying the true freedom it brings
adventures coming within time
you need to be only the ryhme
as you stand high on thy tower
a stoic warrior within your full power
I bow at your feet
as you take your true seat
stride forever strong and free
as it was always meant to be

Today I came across a beautiful bird
It started talking to me; how absurd
He said people are so caught up in strife
Not enjoying the simpler moments of life
No longer as a people do we feel deep joy
Children no longer making their own toys
We sit them in front of cable television
Wondering why hate is all they can envision
Eating fast food from boxes in microwaves
We truly wonder why we are early to the grave
Doctors get paid extra to make us addicts
Pain and suffering is running so tragic
This gorgeous bird hopped onto my shoulder
Him and I chatted of life's huge boulders
He said people used to simply cover their ****
Now we are selfish over the almighty coin
Days are gone of fresh food from our gardens
Now we are just a lost society hardened
We talked about how nobody looked at the stars
No more fantasy only dreams seemingly so far
We wondered why we were far from the norm
Why people cannot sit to enjoy a perfect storm
The bird and I came to the conclusion
That compassion and love are just an illusion
How much longer before this insanity stops
Before our life burdens are too heavy to drop
The bird chirped a little music in my ear
He told me I have nothing in this world to fear
My eyes were open I could truly see
The beauty of what spirit provided me
Grateful of blessings and gifts given to us
In angel spirits my soul will always trust
My little bird, sadly he soared up and above
But not before he embraced me in total love
I will never forget this little bird
Nor the kindness to me of his word

Today I am tired
I wish I were fired
So I could do nothing at all
Just into my bed I'd fall
Pick up my favorite book
Not caring how I look
Just relax in a dreamy daze
Trickling through my mind's maze
Tomorrows another day
Energy will return my way
I will return to this human race
Even have a smile on my face
But for today I am going to stay
Keeping everything far at bay
Curled up by the blazing fire
Of that I could never tire
Sometimes it is awesome to be alone
Giggling when I ignore the phone
Rejuvenate my body's lack of sleep
Oh sometimes hiding is so sweet
I bid you farewell at this time
So I can go back and find my ryhme

Every time you touch me you set off an alarm
I feel the fire, the flames run up my arm
It spreads from head to toe
Perfect places to touch you know
The heat of your lips
I feel in between my hips
Lavishing untold passion unto me
Sending me to unknown places I love to be
The love I feel from your heart
Sets you from others apart
Whispering those words in my ear
God, oh please help me I cannot see clear
Special thoughts we share
I know now what it’s like to care
You took away all the hurt, the pain
The flow of tears disappeared like the rain
You’ve shown me the warmth of the sun
Believing in myself is so much fun
Someone special to hold close
One I can respect the most
This is what I need
To plant and water this seed
I will sit and watch it grow
For love should not be low
To feel really true passion
Hitting us like waves smashing
We should be able to touch
The love we need to feel so much
