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!
Creation
Thank you for the motivation
To craft another day
Drawing life with inspiration
Bright colors fill the page
Dreams are magical creations
Be grateful for the thoughts
Journey’s yours from incarnation
Unique as snowflakes fall.
Cross to Bear
What cross is that you bear,
The one you chose at incarnation
To grow, to learn, to raise
Your place in heaven’s realm?
I know not what that is
Eternity awaits completion
Persist, sustain, excel
At Home rewards are yours.
I am Me
“Make good choices,”
Wise man said.
“What you do is
On your head.”
Blame not others
For your act
Own decisions
Write a pact
“Who I am, I
Choose to be
Good or bad, I
Must be me.”
Magical Thoughts
On the brink of changing seasons
Chapters flipping, mind creations
Leading to the next adventure
Thoughts become reality
Write the path of great abundance
Firmly placed in one’s intentions
Open mind and heart, acceptance
Grateful, life is magical!
I Am You
Why does man divisive be
When all are God’s creations?
Image, likeness shared by all
Wrapped, unique, a gift to give.
Colors of a rainbow mixed
Each displaying human form
Like a field of flowers wild
Purpose, beauty, journey owned.
Ego drives the wedge between
Fear replaces love and trust
Drop the walls, extend a hand
Diversity enriches.
Hate destroys, devours man
Choose the path to harmony
Live in peace with fellowman
Source descended, I am you.
Break or Bend
Darkest night, the tempest rages
Violent winds upon the shore
Mighty Oak and Willow bracing
Morning light reveals the score
Staunchly stood the Oak resisting
Any change from status quo
Willow swayed and rode the current
Bowing to the greater force
Steadfast Oak sustained much damage
Branches snapped that would not bend
Willow’s tired leaves discarded
Healthy limbs, a place for growth
Change occurs, how will you answer?
Fight to keep your comfort zone?
Ride the thermals to new heights?
Break or bend, your life, your choice.
