IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A BLESSING
If you’re looking for a blessing today…
or anytime you’re feeling blue…
look into the eyes of your child
or any child
and you will see…
a blessing looking back at you

looking for the real me
I spend hours a day looking for the real me
contorting and distorting myself, in new directions
feeling pressure from the eyes of my ancestors
my spirit guides cheering me on, to be me, the real me
I slink around furniture, crawl up stairwells, slither into ditches
looking for the real me
my search has brought me close
I find a sliver

Looking for Home
we need adult pants
to confront our dreams demise
before time waves bye ~
moving to a sunny state
might turn our sadness around
no more lush yard land
useful outbuildings scattered
old farm house we love
maybe sad byes to willows ~
then hi to palms and beaches
we felt this was home
an old house where we belonged
not the landlord though
so to

Looking at Stars
just looking at the stars
my curiosity reaches its high and
tells me to fly through them
i will enter the interstellar space-
a place between the stars
that will send me love for coming trillions of miles apart
the love which is different
from the one that you get on your planet
where bodies are buried everywhere and ashes in the soil

in a looking-glass that sees both ways
A poem is a mirror.
A ?o??i?.
A yes-I-can with crayons the color of Tachyons,
rushing out of whirl’ds where past-meets-future,
reaching for-words…
yet going back-words for some more.
It makes reflections, like a ripple,
but you’re at zero-point too,
where the puddle tessellates to a past in the future you,
and you reflect it back-words and for-words
’til it reverberates…
right there.
Now.
Here.
Like an invertendo-innuendo that’s

Looking Up
Friends are for life,
Burning bright like stars,
Sun like steady,
guiding through
storms of doubt
and decision.
Darkness deep,
Shimmering distances,
faint pinpricks
that appear
deep enough
to need them.
The childhood friend:
of memory never fades,
winter after winter
rising in the
same place and burning bright like pole star.
New friends
cluster like the stars,
seven sisters

What Is Friendship POTD
friendship can be great
looking when will I find you
will that be today
are you now looking for me
will our search go on and on
there you stood looking
oh you came out of no where
what a big surprise
our friendship is a flower
fun and laughs are everywhere
our fun and laughs turn
it all goes so very wrong
hurt and pain from

Shall I peer into my looking glass, my darling?
I stare at the girl through my looking glass.
In her smile, self-deprecation sighs.
Voices in her head whisper chaos,
as she screams internally for attention,
begging any deity above to save her.
Oh dear, doesn't she know?
The looking glass might just crack,
from a world where fight becomes flight.
She enforces principles of modesty in clothing-
but is modesty the only veil

purposefully not looking
curvaceous model
red headed and rubenesque
statuesque beauty
husbands dare not stare
purposefully not looking
under wives keen watch

WHEN YOU CAME LOOKING
songer.co/song/zhrrlz76f4svedppeqpsvle1
[Verse 1]
You came by when the world got too loud,
Eyes like rain, voice full of doubt.
I didn’t ask — I just stayed,
Held your silence like it had something to say.
But I was always the place you’d land,
Not the one you’d ever understand.
[Chorus]
And love… real love doesn’t hide,
Doesn’t knock just when it’s cold outside.
I didn’t know

Looking Hinder
Jesus painted a picture that I alone could see,
no more was I considered a Doubting Thomas.
Despite my many shortcomings He still loved me,
and had given to me hope, truth, and promise.
At times God has placed me on an uncertain path,
it’s during these times he is testing my faith.
Obedience is the key to avoiding God’s

Yahweh’s Promises, Adonai’s Reality and looking at Jesus
Today, too many Christians have settled for Yahweh’s Promises
Without experiencing the full power of Adonai
The promises of Yahweh are True
The Reality of Adonai is the fulfillment of those Promises
Adonai is the Ruler, Master, and Owner
He has the final say
As we pray, we surrender our lives to Him!
In his Kingdom, we have everything we need
We

long deep angry looking gouges on a tree
cat claw marks on a tree
long deep angry looking gouges
a huge animal, possibly a leopard, tiger or lion
I envision this beast sharpening her enormous claws
maybe a velvety black puma with yellow eyes
terrified, my hair stood straight up on end
am I being watched from the shadows?
