Broken Things
You can push me away
or you can pull me near
No matter what you do
I’ll still be here
– by your side
For the love that is
shared cannot be
un-shared and the
two hearts that were
joined cannot be
separated. Once two
paints are mixed they
cannot be unmixed
and are made the
more beautiful for the
mixing. Two souls
united with love may
part, but are always
together as one.
You can push me away
or you can pull me near
No matter what you do
I’ll still be there
– by your side.
Hearts
The heart is
our perennial
shelter where the
language of art
is embedded by
the celestial and
only understood
by the lover’s sight.
The heart is
the eternal
dancer where
the lessons of life
are taught in a
language only
true dancer’s can
speak through
the lover’s touch.
The heart is
a perpetual
moment where
each moment
flows always towards
the next seeking
to breathe in
love through
the lover’s kiss.
Awareness
Can you feel it?
– close your eyes
and breathe deeply –
That sense of being,
it permeates everything.
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
– walk gently with
total awareness –
That wholeness of life,
it unites everything.
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
– look at all with
no judgements –
That freedom of mind,
fosters a greater love.
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
– close your eyes
and breathe deeply –
That gentle awareness
brings boundless joy in life.
Can you feel it?
The Coming Storm
The world abounds
with lessons for the soul
– a foreboding sky
with a silver sheen
or a butterfly showing
color before the storm
– a cooling summer shower
or a hard day’s labor
in a staunch humidity
– the winds of change
blowing you on your way
or perhaps you stand your
full of pride, refusing to flow.
The soul delights in
these and other lessons
that this world abounds with.
Our Shared Life
Your effulgence spreads
it’s inner worth to this world
– rousing sleeping hearts
to live another day – to
sing it a holy
song, to become a witness
to the world’s sacred beauty.
Your effulgence spreads
over t my world giving
my soul your sacred
breath, revitalizing the
life lived with your love.
A presence divine engulfs
this soul, manifesting love.
Your effulgence spreads
magnificent color in
this windswept spirit,
tempting life to swell in the
sanctuary of
our soul’s abode where love reigns
supreme throughout our shared life.
