Miracles

Image
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 t...

Deciding to Shine: A Poem of Quiet Contemplation

Image
     Hello! Thank you for sharing in my poetry today. Recent events and emotions have brought about this recent poem. I feel that whatever is happening in my life, I need to have some sort of inspiration around. Something expressing joy and thankfulness, something uplifting. Using quotes, poems, and books, I have periods (like now!) where I need a boost more than others.       Reading my favorite authors and writing has become my way to reflect and gain a sense of peace and perspective. I have been so busy lately with everything but writing and when I finally did get a chance to sit down, it was like..... YES! But then, so many emotions welled up and tried to come out that I felt frozen. So, in order to still my thoughts and feelings I focused on one concept. My poem is about that topic. What do you think my topic is? Shine  What does it mean to shine? I think it means to radiate, sparkle embrace and ...

Embracing Something : A Poem of Awareness

Image
 Here is a poem constructed after much thought on current life events. May it inspire and deepen your awareness of connectivity, unity, dreams and passion! Something There is something inside that calls and pulls at us, urging us to go forward - to embrace the restless side of our deepest Self. Knowing ourselves involves engaging with this shadow, this part of us that feels ancient, bold, powerful. How much time we spend engaged in the mystery how far we travel this time around depends upon our willingness, our joy, our readiness for something.

Poem of Grace and Inspiration

Hello! Thank you for joining me today. I hope things are well for you as we near the first day of Spring! I need to purchase a birthday card as that day is also my sister's birthday. At any rate, I have hopes of warm days ahead when I just know I will be both motivated and inspired to the point of distraction. Warm weather does that to me! I just want to take a minute and share a poem I had meant to be part of a collection but decided to let stand solo. I hope you like it! The Grace of An Angel 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. My life has never been left to chance my days are not set to circumstance- you helped me see that. Reaching for dreams has been our forte releasing myself from the chains of illusion our delight. How grateful I am...

Friendship, Poetry, Inspiration

Image
Welcome! Thanks for stopping by today!      I have been inspired to write a poem about friendship today, thanks to a dear friend. I am very grateful for the friends I have. I am thankful for the support and encouragement that I received from them when I opted to start writing. My life is richer because of my friends. I have a feeling you could say the same. Friends enrich our lives in so many ways, don't they? Through ups and downs, they are there for us. And we are there for them. So, here's  my poem. Inspired by the greatness that is friendship. Friendship Something winds its way among souls a force both fragile and strong It brings joy and deep, shining grace to what seems like million mornings and the peace of mind born of a tender knowing; it is a journey of still movements between hearts and grows ever richer ever deeper with the involvement in the tears and dreams of another; our hearts are ope...

Writing poetry

Image
Good day to you! Thank you for stopping by and being a part of my writing world. That's where my heart is lately. Anyway, I have some new poetry for you. I hope you like it! Updates : I have been submitting my poems to so many places! I have a notebook to keep track. No, it's not digital! It probably should be, but I like the natural feel of handwriting my poems first before I post them or put them in a document. Guess I am just old-fashioned that way. Oh well! My full-length book of poems I hope to find a publishing home for soon. That is a dream that I have. Wish me luck! Below are some poems just for you, not for submission to any poetry contests or part of my growing collection for yet another book. I hope you like! Take time to smell the flowers (not just roses!) this week. Life is precious. And beauty is everywhere. Dreams Leaves whisper softly when they fall Love lies gently upon an open heart but dreams - oh, dreams - Dreams crac...

Poetic Musings

Image
Hello, and welcome. This is a poetry post! I have been  churning words around in my mind. Here goes! Emerging Emerging from darkness Self-imposed I feel the wind of regret wipe across my skin It penetrates deeply Into the marrow of my soul Burning Finally it fades, leaving ashes Dust I press onward toward the light My destiny shines before me Time is spent embracing now The journey changes by my choice My decision No more regret, only acceptance And knowing Follow me Home Mystery There is the mystery of me knowing you You knowing me Me knowing me How did we ever forget who we  are I wonder Is this discovery all there is What else matters But dreaming, living Being awake to The mystery Ok, folks, that's all for today. Thanks for reading my poetic musings! Much love and happy reading! Kimberly

Women of Wonder

Image
Hello! In a writing frenzy lately and I haven't posted much poetry in a while, so here I go. I was inspired to write this poem after listening to some music. I love that music, actually the lyrics, really inspire me to write poetry, which I see as kind of a song of the soul. So here is my poem, about the power of having a mindset of wonder. Of being open and receptive. See what you think. Let's be women of wonder! Woman of Wonder Are you a woman of wonder who wonders about life love and eternity, too? Are there questions your soul longs to have answered that your mind spins and your restless heart skips a beat at the thought of them being answered? I am here to say stay strong woman of wonder feed the flames of your desire your curiosity for it is Me you seek Wisdom and I stand at the gate of truth guarding the entrance to its chambers I call forth everyone and so few listen instead choosing folly and vice, but the open heart and gent...
