Miracles





Hi! Welcome!

Thank you for stopping by. I am glad you are here.

Today's poem is on miracles. Specifically, that life is full of miracles.

You are a miracle.  Yes, YOU!

How does that sit with you?

So what does that mean, and why am I inspired to write about it?

It means that life truly is amazing, that healings and happiness are our birthright.

It means that I am focusing on seeing the good, as well as being the good.

I am inspired to write about it because of the new year, because of books I have been

reading, and just because I need life to feel that way.

Below are some poems. I hope you enjoy!







How I See

 How I see you
how I judge myself
tells the story
of the past, not
what I want to see
in the future
and
it doesn't reflect
reality
only a dream
one that we both agreed upon
somewhere in love's continuum
and now I choose to see
only love
only love
only love


 Dervish

 I will dance and twirl in celebration
in joy
in thanks
in remembrance
of all the miracles held within this moment
within your eyes
within this universe
   and I hope that you will join me
Thank you for being a part of my poetic journey. Remember, you are a miracle.
See you next time!

Inspired Words : A Poem of Divine Assistance

Image
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...

Listening to Self and Writing Poetry

Image
Hi! Thanks for stopping by. Lately I have been working on new poems. I am inspired by spring coming up, by books I have been reading, by quotes that I have saved on Pinterest. But most of all I have been inspired by the recurring word; "Listen." The same word keeps appearing in all my reading material, and again as I browse on social media. In books, on Facebook posts, on Twitter. Over and over I see the admonition to listen. Listen to what? Perhaps to my inner Self. That part of me that responds to poetry, to spiritual and self-growth books. The part of me that feels the words that I write down. When I do, I notice that my poems come easier. They are more expressive. Ah. My poetry comes from a place that I listen to in silence. Sit before in silence. Open up to in silence. When we listen to others, we are giving them a gift. We are honoring them. When we listen to ourselves, we give ourselves a gift and honor ourselves. True? In the spirit of listening an...

Season of inspiration

  So much newness in spring! I love the season of spring. Just the sight of color can sooth my restless spirit and can fuel my imagination with ideas and possibilities. Endless examples of life, growth, change. Everything is vibrant and new. Love is in the air, they say.   So you might say I personally feel inspired by spring. By weather that is warm, colorful. When it comes to writing we can look for what inspires us and use that in a way that brings a certain quality to what we write. This quality will shine through even if we can't identify what it is exactly.   Think to what inspires you, take care to not to keep yourself from those things for too long. Really, this is about being in balance and not being too extreme on either end of the spectrum. Burnout and lack of inspiration, while maybe not totally unavoidable at times, can be lessened and shortened intensity perhaps if we take steps to fill our days with as much of what inspires us as we can.  ...
