Rescue
Debra Lea Ryan Aug 2015
When waves of strife
Crash upon the keel
Equipped I Am
At the Wheel
I flag peace
To Still My Sea
Anchor Safely
Within my being!

If Dark clouds
Block my view
I search
The compass
Of My Mind
Even work overtime
To navigate a new course
Away from the gale force!

Sailors resting on the land
Put themselves to a test
When they hear my SOS
Ready and able
To give a hand
They plot Fearlessly
A Rescue in destructive Sea
Deep and Dark
Beyond me!

(c) Debra Lea Ryan, 25/10/10

When I'm safely on the shore
My heart still yearns to explore
Follow my dreams - Flow with the Sea
Honour  Love Within You and Me.

( 31/03/11)
I reworked/retitled  this Piece to be a part of  my online Cine-Poetry project located at my personal website and You Tube.

Anchoring

When waves that Wound
Crash upon the keel
Equipped We Are
At the Wheel
To flag peace
Still the Sea
Anchor Safely
Within our being!

Shining Star
Debra Lea Ryan Aug 2021
As I  look to the sky
Through the depths
Of the night
I  see you shining
In your own right
For you are
A Shining Star

Then when I  wish
Hope or Dream
Even experience reality
I know exactly
Where you are
Dear Shining Star
You Witness Me

My every breath
That I  take
Showing how
I partake
In a sense
Of being struck
Star Stuck
By your  Love!

NO OBSTACLE
Debra Lea Ryan Aug 2016
My Weakness is no longer an Obstacle
And this sense of loss is not true
It was manufactured over time
Ensued....

From what I thought could be
Was simply not a  reality
No confirmation of knowing
Deceiving....

Frightened by an Avalanche
I witnessed in a Dream
Clearly revealed the Barricade
I needed to See....

Life is for Living
Living I will
With a purpose of Love
Endure!

Flying Under the Radar
Debra Lea Ryan Oct 2016
When I truly listen to my Heart
I hear the words Fly under the Radar
Not so my life can not be detected
Wherever I  Journey
It just  means I need to Maintain
A certain degree of Privacy
For Myself, Close Friends and firstly Family

It does not mean I do not care
About what  occurs beyond me
I have just chosen a Pathway
Where it is possible
To Nurture Emotional Security
Involving being far more aware
Of the  Duty of Care
I have for  Myself  
And the True Loves
Of Life Daily.

DLR

I finally realize that all our Days are numbered and I choose not to be swept away by certain distractions so I can   Live up to my own Responsibilities/Purpose and that involves primarily the exchanges between Family and Close Friends.  Beyond this  I do experience Other exchanges however I am far more aware not to be drained of all kinds of Energy/Resources that I need to Maintain my own Reality.  I count too as we all do and I do what I am able for others after I see to things in my own Family & Community(where I actually Live).

Moving On
Debra Lea Ryan Nov 2016
When stung by a certain pain
For a second you are almost  insane
However you  quickly  figure out
Not to bottom out
By choosing to see what you need to
In  a different light
Like wisely surrender from the fight
Long enough to remember
It is not your battle
So why take it on
Move On!
Sunset

A Chess Set

Books to Read

Cups of Tea

Music

And a Sea View

For  WHO and ME?

On Mondays!

Ha!

Then WHO will plan the rest of  the Week?

I know!

Take it as it Flows!

Sweet!

I Hum from Within
The kind of Song
Where True Love Sings

There is no mistaking

Just the Rush
Of Blood Pulsating

Love Igniting
A Song so Striking

Heart
Do you want to smell the Flowers

Be in the moments of each day

Receive beauty life offers

And experience your own bouquet



Where do you draw in such fragrance

In a World of many concerns

Simply search your heart My Friend

Look beyond the twists of fern



As the hedge that surrounds Your Sanctuary

Grows a little out of control

Then prune it back carefully

Your Flower needs to be on show



To other beautiful Flowers

That bloom all around

Grateful for Inspiration

In fertile ground!

An Eternal Bliss
Sheltered From The Wind
In Peace to Exist.

Mosaic of Green
Debra Lea Ryan Oct 2016
It amuses me how I often thought of the Colour Green
As simply Hue stained leaves that dressed the Trees
Or Carpeted parts of the Earth
Like Seas of Turf
Also taking Flight
In the Sky
Certain Birds
Distinctly Green
And a number of Reptiles
With such a Glow
However now I know
In our World
When Human Beings Create
They may tap into the Stream
That Flows Green....

Mosaïque de vert

Cela m’amuse comment j’ai pensé souvent à la couleur verte
Simplement comme teinte coloré des feuilles qui habille les arbres
Ou des parties de la moquette des mers comme terre de gazon
En prenant le vol dans le ciel
Certains oiseaux
Distinctement vert
Et un certain nombre de Reptiles
Avec un tel éclat
Mais maintenant je sais
Dans notre monde
Quand créer des êtres humains
Ils peuvent puiser dans le flux
Les coulées vertes....

Am I renovating
Or letting go
Of All
I no longer need?

Is this a Dream
Or an emotional Scene
Deciding what to Toss
Then  Box?

Will  New Paint and Tiles
Erase A sense of Time
And Memories of Mind
In this space called Home?

After 20 years
Is it possible to face
All kinds of  Fear
Especially Change?

Or will I simply
See this process through
To experience
Something New?

I prefer to  Concede
My ongoing thoughts
Will eventually reveal
What will BE!

A Raging Sea of Mystery

Trying to make Sense of it All
Looking out at that Crumbling Wall
And Slap-Happy

Never mind if the Planets Align
If you prefer to Ignore
Cause your Smile from Inside
Oozing with Life
Keeps you 10 Feet Tall

Why make sense of it All
As you Scale the Walls
Aren't You Happy.

My Heart Awakens every day
Desiring to express in some way
A few thoughts that Occur  
About the coming Dawn
Like the Happy Birds
Singing before the Sun
Kisses the Sky and Beyond
Moments like these
Then pump through  
Every part of my Being My Body
Slowly Seeping into my  Brain
Dare they Refrain
Until I feel attuned
To all that surrounds me
Is flowing fully Within me
Truly it is lovely
Natures Song
Then Equips me
To set about my Path Daily
Glad I am part of Life's Throng.

Dream Talker #1
You travel time and space
Show me your lovin' face
I hear your voice - breathe you in
Then you disappear again

Sometimes you shout and wake me up
Its cruel and sends me into shock
I rise to show I truly care
Acknowledge always you are there

Dream Talker or Heart Stalker
What do you want from me?
If you can not hang around
Then let my soul be free!

You really love my playful mood
That spirits us across my room
We dance and I hope we never stop
Till I hear Goodbye Love - I'm Off!

I often wonder will there be a day
You walk into my life
Instead of playing our mind games
Throughout the night!

Dream Talker or Heart Stalker
What do you want from me?
If you can not hang around
Then let my soul be free!

Walk Away
If you don't know what you want
Then you don't want me
It's (so)Head Stuffin'

There's the door
You can't ignore
It's over Baby

Yes your indecision
Is driving me crazy

And I know I sound
So angry
Walk away...

Suddenly it seems like I've stopped Lovin'
The truth is - it's just confronting

How you feel
Is a big deal
To me baby

Being lost
In a life of Maybes

(So)
Goodbye
It's Time

The Tree
Liberty is planted in the heart you know
It has taken root and flames our soul
Once a seed but now a Tree
Outstretched with Branches
For the World to See
We can Breathe, We can Conceive
Believe we can in all our Dreams...
Journey on  yes we  must
Blind at times
But still we trust
That when a rush of wind
Blows through our leaves
Safe is our Soul, Our Tree
We can Breathe, we can Conceive
Believe we can in all our Dreams.

I want to say I'm holding you up
Feeling deep a blue kind of mood
Hoping you rest in all our love
Keep holding us, holding us up...

So tell me what actually happened today
Who said what in a hurtful way
(You know)Upset you, hit our World hard
Can we let it go - hang on to our love...

I want to say I'm holding you up
Feeling deep a blue kind of mood
Hoping you rest in all our love
Keep holding us, holding us up...

Don't you think enough is enough
Wake up and only feel our love
Let loose that silent scream
Come closer to us let it be

I want to say I'm holding you up
Feeling deep a blue kind of mood
Hoping you rest in all our love
Keep holding us, holding us up.
