Calling

The calling of change
ever present be wonders
evolutional.

This green slug, which is part animal and part plant,
produces its own chlorophyll
and so can carry out photosynthesis,
turning sunlight into energy, scientists have found.

Little Hands

Wonder and question
so fills the day
Objects and toys
for fun filled play
Little hands make light
of furrow and frown
Within their soul

Be their world
of magic and delight.

The truth, the innocence, and the all-knowing spirit of life fills our first breath. Who and what answers our first cry? What happens in the moments of life that fill the years to follow? Do we become the sum total of who touches, who answers, who denies, who ignores, who accepts, who rejects, who encourages? What moves us out of the shadow of our own experience? ...

A Haiku Moment

A haiku moment
Five fingers five syllables
A calling of heart.

Beauty Be

Heed well the ocean's sounding call
Its splendor we shall not befall
Pulsing waves of sky
Pulsing waves of sea
Upon the sands
The embrace of beauty be.

This Breath Known

Solitude
The quiet of God's grace
These echoes of thought
Hushed by resounding stillness of soul
The gathering of time
Moments suspended
Embraced by the ALL
Within nature's Oneness
This heart real
This breath known.

Rose Marie Raccioppi

SOUL

The touch is illusive
The feel is real

SOUL
the Spirit
the Omnipresence
the Universe
of Love

as this moment defined.
