ANGELIC WHISPERSANGELIC WHISPERS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the night air trembles
angelic whispers--pure, clear
language of spirit
wings outstretched, they fly
across the starry expanse
free, unbound—their flight
graceful reflection
of divine and infinite
glimpse of heaven's gate
in their winged presence,
time stands still--all is made new
the Eternal now

Apricot of the TartsIf a demon sours of harrowing,
cannot the Angels sing in barren too?
birds weigh less than the tall grass,
and a sight is much more beautiful,
than we could have ever imagined
of nature's true gift of existing
and the angel's bless of receiving
of the grand in our hearts
can be of swapping
of the apricots in the tarts....
Sweet and ever so...

Is our dog an angelwhere I see danger
they see play
they are dogs
it is their way
what if our dog is an angel? My husband said
Wonder if we’ll find out when we’re dead?...

ReunitedIn crescendos and surges of light,
Beneath the somber, crimson sky,
Beyond the shadow's line,
He stretched his wings in haste
He found and swept an angels heart;
They shine and struck embrace
And onward flew the angels,
By crimson flame and flash
We simply stood and stared a while,
And heard the trumpets blast.
We saw it singed and scorched in light
And in the...

LITTLE ANGELS
How often we call our babies little angels…especially when they’re sleeping.
It’s a memory that lasts forever in our hearts…one we hope we’re always keeping.
And speaking on behalf of most parents…as we fall under our little angel’s charms
We would do anything to keep them safe…free from misery and harm.
We spend a good...

GOTCHA
Tingly skies full of surprise, oh how I love when with surmise
The little rascal aims his dart as if it were, poetic art!
This makes everyone exciting… can’t wait for his launching
Drawing two loving hearts, yours and your future sweetheart’s.
Sweet angel for pairs of pure doves, bound them with so much love
Little rascal casting his magic,...

Seeds Of The SoulIn our souls lie all the seeds,
Waiting patiently to meet our needs.
Soulfully waiting for us to choose,
For us to use or abuse.
We plant our seeds in our garden of life,
The seeds we choose will bring joy and strife.
Many we’ll plant, but all will not flourish,
Much depends on how much we nourish.
Some that are planted will...

The Real MoonJust once in my life,
I saw the real moon
And that moon was you.
(In silent thought, I wonder)
Did bad luck suddenly
Turn into a good one?
My soul drifts afar,
bathed in moonlight
Madly, I fall for the moon,
And madly, I fall for you.
Just once in my life,
I saw the real moon
And that moon was you....

I Go To Seek A Great Perhaps, as That Is What I Was After TooThe days crack like porcelain
under the heel of my wanting.
I am a spine of restless birds,
feathers slick with salt and early light—
my mouth tasting the metal
of doors I have not opened.
They ask me why.
Why walk without a destination?
Why carry a compass
if you don’t believe in north?
I tell them—
the road does not need an ending
to be...

Heart of an AngelSomething so pure that it felt scars of the past!
Betrayal from others is what they felt!
As it looks at it gift they pontificate whether they can give the gift its needs.
The gift is happy and does not know the sadness from the angel who gave him life!
Taking a leap of faith, they found themselves trusting...

Too Much Is Enough
Stop
Too much
Is enough
Grief seeping through my body
Rendering me to surrender
To a time and place
Where my world came crashing down
Where I’m swimming against the tide
Fighting the darkness
Surrounded in tears
As I search in vain
Searching for signs —
A dime
A butterfly
A Blue Jay
A Cardinal
Or a glorious rainbow
Reminding me that you are still by my side
Not tangible
Just peace
Your aura follows...
