S P R I N G... a loving Thank You...

hear the song of the songbird
feel the quiver of grass new
be touched by the golden light of bloom and sun
listen to the silent sounding of budding leaf
behold the beauty, tulips they be
a bouquet of colors, a magical array, gifted onto me
and in their adornment of time and space
the message of creation within heart to place
the delicate expression of bloom to fill our days
the Creator's artistry, passion, power and praise
 hues bold, warm, vibrant, and delicately divine
gifted onto us in this season of grace, the NOW of time.

Peeking Green

Peeking Green

Peeking green through melted snow
Winds of winter in whispers yet blow
A sounding serenade through barren branches heard
And the coveted song of a nesting songbird
The crisp leaves of Fall's season yet found
With broken twigs upon this awaiting ground
Driving rains upon emergent buds of green
Winter giving over to Spring in this moment seen
Felt is the quiver below my feet
Pulsing be Mother Earth as Spring she greets.

I AM

I AM

Embraced by dreams and visions

Touched by time and memories

Called to breath and BEING

In the silent call of glory

In the resounding stillness

In a timeless moment of grace.

Upon arising to this day new... heed wise...

A hankering, a beckoning of heart

A dream, a vision, a knowing from the very start

A reaching for what the soul says you are to BE

Beyond the limits of a perceived reality

Heed wise the inner flame and fire

It is Spirit's knowing, knowing desire

Feel the soaring that holds you true

Live the light, the power, the passion of YOU.

Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper - Shallow ( Lyrics Video )

Words that call to that silent yet resounding quest of SELF onto SELF... YES, "Far from the SHALLOW..." 
to the knowing, 
to the longing,
the longing that beckons "for change."

Longing

the TRUTH of SELF beckons within

the longing for change beyond the din

far, far, from the shallow NOW

to the quest, to the heart held vow

the spirit in its soaring splendor 

to this so willingly we surrender

far far, from the shallow NOW

to the quest, to the heart held vow.
