A New Journey

Hi! Thank you for stopping by. Wishing everyone well! I have been feeling inspired by recent books I have read and talks I have listened to lately, and I wrote this poem today as a result. I hope you enjoy it! There is so much joy, goodness and beauty all around us - all we have to do is slow down. Look, listen and love. Now is When Now is when you embrace your dream, when you release all false barricades and stumbling blocks. Now is when you choose to stand for what you want and know is yours. Now is when you see the world for the magic that is IS, see yourself for the magic that is YOU. Wonder and awe wash over you now in this moment that is the only moment. Rest. This moment is perfect. Breathe. In the silence and space between silences all your power, beauty and love burst forth and shine like the sun.                    ...

Hi! Welcome!      I have been thinking recently about the quiet moments, the ones we seem to have to make a conscious effort to enjoy; those moments of reflection and introspection that offer us respite, insight and renewal. I want to make time for more of that in my life. Do you? It is almost as if I am craving the peace and guidance that comes in those moments when I sit in silence and allow myself to just BE. I can release my sense of urgency concerning issues in my life that are coming up. I can relax.      Spending time acknowledging blessings, envisioning the future, releasing and letting go of negative energy, all happen within, in the sacred space that waits for us to be present with it. Such gifts come to us when we do! Today's poem is a reflection upon that realization.      Does it feel as though you have been drawn to allowing, or experiencing, more quiet moments in your life? Perhaps ...

Good day! Thank you for stopping by.  I have a poem for you today that came to me on a rare, quiet afternoon when I allowed myself time to reflect. I felt drawn to the topic of  unity, of our connection to nature. I felt th ese words almost being spoken over me! They came to me softly in phrases, and I felt such peace as I wrote them down. It was a transcendent  experience, one that I wish happened more often. I hope you enjoy!   The Mystery of You The mystery you think I am is really the mystery of You, for we are linked as one- we both express divine love, our essence both pure and light. What you are  and what I am is really the same. Seeing differences where none exist brings fear,sadness and pain; illusion feeds the needless suffering of love's great joy- You!  So let us stay together now linked by a bond of pure love; in safety you will be guided to the placed you know as home.

Writing my poetry. Then reading it. Repeat.      The beginning of a poem for me usually comes all at once- a line or phrase, maybe a bit more. Then I freeze. I read what I have and sometimes the rest just flows. Other times I stop, thinking that it isn't quite done yet I am hard pressed to add more. More and more I am stopping at some point in my poem. I don't get frustrated. No. I get excited! I know something delicious is cooking, stewing, almost ready. I can't rush it- like I can't rush a roast or turkey or even a pie. So, the part where I step away and let myself relax into my poem is becoming a favorite part. An enjoyable part of my writing. I do have a poem I wrote in one sitting. It came to me all at once like I was writing down something already written. I think this poem was already written - in my heart. It describes how I have felt in the past about certain books, certain authors. I get so much from books! Here is  poem I hope you enjoy, go...

Hello! Thanks for stopping by! I want to share a poem inspired by all the books I have read throughout the years on the subject of self awareness and personal growth. I love nonfiction!! How I finish the sentence "I am..." has changed so much throughout the years. How do you complete the sentence? I AM I am love seeking expression creativity unbound I am unity within diversity the common thread woven through life; many moments link this one to eternity existing within my heart for the joyous realization of all that I am.
