Courage is.. Fire. A Poem of inner strength











Hi!

I have many new poems and plan to post them one at a time. It is my hope you enjoy them. This one is about personal strength, inner fire, courage. Here's to being courageous--- and I know that you are!






Courage is a type of Fire


Courage is
A type of fire
A dreaded unwanted fire
Coming with fear of being burned
Again
Courage is a type of fire
Molding and transforming
Into some new
Shape we were never in
Before
Courage is embraced by heroes
And sheroes;
This is part of their story
Our story
Even
The story of the earth’s unfolding 



 Thank you for reading and sharing my poetry. My work is from my heart, and it brings e such joy to share it!!

Solitude and Wisdom: poetry for now and always

Hi! Wecome! I am glad you are here. I hope all is well with you and that we are finding reasons to feel encouraged and blessed today. I am just getting back into the writing space again and it feels very good. I thought my newest poems would be on carving out space, enjoying and intentionally growing from time spent in solitude. Here is the first! I hope this resonates and uplifts. It is always my intention to be positive, encouraging and inspiring. Enjoy!! Solitude moments of darkness when the wind barely breathes silence fills the air around me and we inhale we expand my hope for tomorrow in moments of rest between beating hearts and restless minds love can breathe truth can be known and finally lived if we have the courage to step into the space that solitude gives birth to so light will come, following the dark, and joy will flow like a waterfall gushing forth when we quiet our fears and calm our sadness done best in silence and with openness

Hi! Thank you for stopping by today. I have a poem today inspired by quiet meditation. It was during a quiet time of meditation that I felt these words come over me, almost in a rush. I had been contemplating being open to guidance, to the themes of oneness and unity, and was struck by how strongly I felt the realization that my words, my thoughts and feelings, are always heard. I left my quiet time feeling peaceful and also with a measure of gratefulness and awe. Here is the poem below. Hope you enjoy! Inspired Words I sense your presence in stillness and beauty, I hear your voice in a song; love echoes back to me your sentiment, your intent. Standing before me I see outstretched all things lovely and divine; deep within I recognize them as You. I rest in the vision that has a hold of my heart, knowing my life has never been left to chance- my days not set by circumstance. You helped me see that. Reaching for dreams has been our forte, with tenderne

Beginning a new year!

Happy New Year! Things are getting off to a great start.  Welcome  2019! I have been thinking about what I want to bring to this year. An openness to whatever comes, an appreciation for moments of beauty. Peace. Joy. I found a picture that captures that very essence. I hope the poetry below instills a little of it, too. Vision Take your inner vision Nurture and protect your dreams  go where they are are nourished; leave the place where they are not. Bring sunshine to others but give it first to yourself. Moments Tiny moments burst with meaning full of love and circumstance time turns voice and physicality into heartbeat and song Yet I embrace the moment for the beauty it holds Its promises  and melancholy Its joyful sweetness to be savored Thank you for beginning the year  with me. I wish everyone a very happy and peaceful beginning to the new year!
