Snug Harbor
Captain sets the anchor firm
In safe, calm anchorage
Two A.M. in howling winds
The anchor frees its hold
Set adrift with no control
The vessel doomed to crash
Waves are whipped to beer-like froth
React or blow away
Harbor snug was perfect choice
Or so the captain thought
Storms disrupt the best laid plans
To teach, so we may learn
Lives on Earth are fleeting times
For soul progression growth
Thrust outside the comfort zone
Be lost or reach for home
Guidance there, for us to ask
Free will, but help nearby
Practice stillness listening
The angels wait to aid
Life is full of miracles
Go forth, fear not, be brave
God’s got this, the plan is set
Believe! Feel Joy! Rejoice!
HOPE
Wish not for the return to “normal”
Selfish agendas, divisiveness, wars
Hope for a “new” way of being
One that honors Earth and all living creatures.
Be Still
“Be still!” No entertainment.
Punishment
“Sit there and think about it!”
Tedium
Worldwide virus halts the train
Stuck inside
Forced to face our inner fears
Panic spreads
Look around at status quo
Comforting
New days dawn, the birds still sing
Flowers bloom
Time to chill, step off the wheel
Wait the storm
Meditate, appreciate
Inner peace
Journey
My path belongs to me
The contract to fulfill
Discovering myself
Through Earthly lessons learned
Compassion is my guide
No right have I to judge
Each travels journey planned
Humanity is one.
He Is There
Dad provides the worldly needs
Sits silently aside
Stalwart in his outward pose
Fights demons of his own
Leader of the family
Advisor, loving man
Mentor, coach, defender waits
To mend a broken heart
Wiping tears, encouraging
His child’s growth support
Proud of the accomplishments
Arms out to catch the falls
Father in the sense that’s true
Means more than DNA
Dance recitals, soccer games
Wherever, he is there!
