Moments' Grace

meandering creek reaches conclusion
                      finds silence and reverence
                      in shadow of seclusion

                      subdued light gives deference
                      off road and traveled way
                      finds silence and reverence

                      in shadows secrets stay
                      as the land knows no time
                      off road and traveled way

                      in reflections it finds divine
                      the creek finds its place
                      as the land knows no time

                      moments spent give moments’ grace
                      time blessed and true
                      as the creek finds its place

                      meandering creek reaches its conclusion
                      subdued light gives deference
                      in shadows secrets stay
                      in reflections it finds divine
                      moments spent give moments’ grace


In Blue

The evening sky rests upon a cobalt blue comforter 
As pinpoints of light descended downward through the heavens 
Constellations standing steadfast in a slow drift 
As the earth rotates slowly beneath them 
From Orion to Ursa Major 
They stood together for the casual viewer 
I have often wondered how that star that stands alone 
Feels in its seclusion 
Sometimes the loneliest star shines the brightest 
But will we appreciate its beauty? 
Lost in a cast of “billions” 
Some have long burned out 
Appearing only as a memory 
Passed on from light years away 
Diamonds that glitter in an endless sky 
A voice that drowns in its silence 
As planets tiptoe slowly 
an eternal dance unfolds 
In Blue

Premium Member Soft Repose

Daybreak in Georgia
Heavy dark gray clouds
On the horizon first light
Streaked with light thulian pink

Yard light still shines
No stars, no moon
Surroundings that could gloom
But quietness penetrates pushes away

Roosters alert me to day light
They're in command in their
Domain, letting all know
This is my space, stay away

Relaxation comes riding
Slowly over the slopping rise
Releasing the tension
That builds from everyday life

Cheer-up, cheer-up
Sings the nearest bird
Calling to her mate
Faintly he answers

The thulian pink streaks have disappeared
Clouds have enveloped the sun
Predicting rain showers today
Dampness is filling the air

Crickets alert the other creatures
That they are up and out
Their comrades answer in like fashion
Jump and hide morning light's here

Sound that is unfamiliar
Can't give it a name
Sounds like a bird saying cheer-up
But with a higher pitched sound

Magnolia tree has some white
Blooms now, that contrast those
Gorgeous, shining deep green leaves
Which have a fuzzy underside

Jet flying high over can only hear
Vision is limited because of the overcast
Sound didn't last long
How fast do they move now

Crepe Myrtle loaded
With purple blooms
Draw all nature's 
Friends to her door

The daybreak and quiet
Gave a soft repose
To the early morning
Giving me strength for day

Premium Member Where Light Will Turn Around

In ancient times, marked in Celtic clans
There are stories told, and legends formed 
And rituals would unfold
The apples were pressed, to make an ale for wassail toasts
To warm the host, when snow skimmed off the wind
This was when the whole world measured time
This is when the light would turn around
This is where the past would come undone
Where a spinning earth would mark a new beginning
Let's go back in time, to when it all began
Take me to the breaking of new dawns
There are moments keen with memory as bright as fire
Scalding pagan songs as the Druids worshipped sun
Reverse o' time, as ebbing is reborn
A returning journey sails across the sky
Deep within harsh winters steely breath
Let me meditate, and join a dance among the trees
I'll hide my face, a masquerade, a mask in covered straw
Disguise the Mummer's call, with chants of Celtic lore
Where the Yule log fire burns for twelve dark days
And ashes kept,  the next year blessed
Weave the ivy and the holly branch once more
The wreaths are made to hang upon the doors
To keep all strong, against all spirits dire
So when spring arrives, seeds will sprout and grow
Oh, radiant sun, stretch the day, shorten night
Return earth's darkness into light
This is where the light will turn around
This is where the past now comes undone

Symphony of the Forest

The leaves of the fern
Begin the rhythm of the forest.
The music of the woodland floor
Pulsates to the rise of the sun.

The morning...mists dissipate in silent beats
Playing to every lead from the composer above.
Dapples of light pierce the canopy
Dancing atop the undergrowth’s skin.
Reflective light serenades...the complimentary
Colors of nature...as the day begins.

The cantata of Spring’s movement reverberates
The forest walls with echoes of wildlife sounds.
Nature’s mellifluous voice...graces the day.
Melodic tones of the chanting thicket,
Boundless in splendor...in harmonious hums.

Soft chirps...in a soothing ambience.
Elegant masses of birds lilt the air.
Amongst the sun and shadow,
An array of serenity dazzles the calm,
Displaying the beauty of nature.

The woven...movement shifts, 
To the euphonious of a gentle rain,
As the acoustic waves chase the sun,
Dulcet tones begin to wind down,
As the fern plays its’ sonata of praise.
In its’ natural role in the forest.

The lush...fern bows with its coppery...red leaves,
As the curtain of night begins to close.
A standing ovation emerges at dusk
From the chattering...crickets...chirping applause.


Premium Member Light Through the Cloud

As I need this time to sit out on the porch
Just a short time even in this mist and cold
I know that you are here even though I can't see

But then I can see your light coming through
The clouds and fog adorning my day
Haven't a chance for I feel the hope of tomorrow

Everything is saturated with moisture but in this mist 
There you are a light not the sun but your light
I feel your presence as thick as the fog cloaking me


Though everything is saturated with moisture
Preparing the earth for the heat and dry 
Spells of summer even though right now 
Summer seems as only a vision of what 
Has been or a faint thought of what could be
You are at work with what was planned 
Years ago to assure that life goes on and on

Thank you for this experience on the porch
As I go to face the pressures of the day
This will go with me to assure me of your 
Presesnce and of your unmeasurable love

(Free Verse since I haven't a clue what else it could be.)(I have been told that when one 
can't explain it that it is supernatural and the works of God.  That is what I felt when the light 
penetrated the darkness.)

Majestic Dreamer

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Majestic dreamer fluttering gracefully above each open petal 
Fiery orange and black as you pass through a bright autumn sky 
Briefly visiting on your way to destinations unknown 
Restless wanderer, turning nighttime into day traveling to places 
Unknown to you and places unimaginable 
Floating without effort where the morning light serves as your next stop 
On a stream of consciousness 
The sweet scent of jasmine draws you closer as you briefly touchdown 
Then you gently scatter the dust of life on an unsuspecting soul 
Wings become still momentarily, then off into your seemingly 
Effort less flight, into the darkness you travel guided by heavenly light 
Onward in your journey in search of the perfect dream 
Your quest continues in both darkness and in light 
Ever closer, with each passing moment, visions become reality in the 
Waking cycle of our lives, autumn settles in, a celebration of seasons past 
Vibrant colors from our experiences now on display 
The butterfly settles down in its final destination 
Flowers bloom in the midst of a fiery sunset 
They await your graceful arrival

Morning Awakens

I awoke before the magnificent light glazed the earth,
I stood out side on my balcony,
And gazed as the moon faded into morn,
I felt the cold air petting my face,
With eyes closed and I absorbed the fresh air.
From the profoundness of heaven above,
 
The ray of light glanced through the clouds,
It does not wait on no man to "come"
 And sweep it's light.
The birds are waking up
 I could hear them sing in the distance.
 
The sleeping buds arise ,
  Spreading their petals to receive the pluming rays.
  I snuggled with my blanket on my chair,
  Sipping my Bavarian Wildberry Tea,
  Awaiting my day to begin.
 
 In a gentle motion the light gleams,
   Over the hills,the seas,the trees everything in its midst,
   The morning rays spread throughout the land ,
   As the stars go dim  and fade away.
 
 
I see my day look bright like the sunflowers in my garden,
I got up looked at the beautiful morning sun,
Smiled and walked inside with contentment.

Premium Member Out On the Porch (3)

It is warm and moist this morning
The ginger is in full bloom now
The beauty of the white blooms 
Against the waxy green foldiage  is outstanding

It is such a contrast to what lies under ground
The root is such a spicy hot item to add to food
Ginger for Asian recipes or homemade ginger snaps
It is faithful to bloom at the very end of summer

The running rose has reached up and grabbed
The pear tree and put blooms in her hair
I don't know how I can get up there to prune 
The wild shoots that are running away

The musadines vines are beginning to turn golden yellow
There isn't much fruit this year because they were not pruned
For there to be abundance of fruit the master gardener has 
To severly prune them to cut away any dead and suckers

These suckers limbs would pull the living water out but produce
No fruit, only green limbs with lots of leaves
The master gardener has to be busy keeping the garden in full production
The pruning, fertilizing, and watering are all necessary for fruit and beauty

The sultana camelia is shiny with its waxy green foliage
The buds have formed for the blooms
If the cold of winter isn't too severe they will be loaded
With their white blooms to grace the garden in the dead of winter

Inspirations has come this morning from just viewing God's good earth
The sun is rising casting its rays upon the light feathery clouds painting
Them a dessert sand 
The light is penetrating, casting away all gloom opening the door to possibilities

Sunset

Day's royal blue canopy fades into the outer recesses of space and time
As hoary sun sheds its fiery cloak for a deeper hue
Gilding light retracts its flaming parasol to horizon's edge
Last burning ember coalesces into a patchwork of glowing cinders       
Shades of bright yellow diluted into coarser pinks, reds
Twilight kisses Helios' parting rays filtering light through a dispersed prism
Diffused light obfuscates glaring shadows and richer contrasts brew
Harmonious band of colors blended into the melting pot stew
The parade of colors christens the solitude of tranquil eve anew
The plush canvas emanates an aesthetic charm refined love to imbue
Linking mortal bonds to eternity's immutable chorus of beauty and bliss
Nocturnal creatures spring from lairs and croon chilling anthem to the blazing panoply
