prompt (white cliffs / seaside memories)


the sound of the waves
the cliffs
year after year
you, me,
crumbling

prompt (dahlia / bud)

a myriad of petals
waiting to rise
to the last summer sun

you,
who can weight your sorrows on butterfly wings
you,
who dances through life with cosmic kings
I suspect that you,
and forgive me when I’m wrong,
are trying to make me happy…………
happy, just by singing your song…….:

see the world in all it’s glory
just listen to it’s ancient story
and you will know
all the secrets that lie deep within you,
hidden but eagerly waiting for your light
and yes you touched me,
while holding me tight and comforting my soul,

and I
I say thank you
thank you
thank you
thank you for just being you

When
I think of you
my heart opens
like the wings of the white dove
spreading light
in its flight
blessing me

when I think of you
my heart jumps
on the rhythm of nature’s song
a hymn of true wisdom
inviting me
to life’s dance

when I think of you
I am small in your greatness
great in your simplicity
and complete
in how I am designed
I bow in grace

he catched mortality
without framing it
left it as a gateway,
an open door to Light
until the end
entering his real world
he knew the way
not by death
but real life
marked it
gently
when taking off

the smile on your face
laced
by shadows and dusk

morning fog keeps her secrets
while night is softly slipping
a sigh creates shreds of light
