Tomorrow

Tomorrow
  
Life is abundant, the essence of energy.
Generations are in motion, confident in their existence.
Enlighten your heart with the undying flame of love.
 
Change is coming, a fresh crisp scent in the air.
Now step forward, feel the wind on your face.
Let the music dance in your head to the beat of a new drummer.
 
The future is [...]

Imagine

Imagine
 
Imagine a wave swept beach,
scattered with remnants of those things brought in with the tide.
 
Visualize a wide-open field,
splashed with color from the wildflowers of red and yellow.
 
Envision a majestic mountain,
capped with snow that in the Spring will flow into gentle streams.
 
Believe in a perfect world,
one that remains constant for generations to come.
 
Nature is [...]

Today

Today
A daily test,
A lesson learned.
It’s always the same,

A child cries;
A mother weeps;

A life dies;
A soul flies.
     
***   I was restless and couldn’t sleep.  I got up and wrote [...]

To My Husband

To My Husband
  
A fact of life,
A lesson learned;
It’s always been you
For which I have yearned.
From the moment I met you,
I immediately new;
Those hollow gray eyes,
Reflecting so many shades of blue.
You love me as I am,
And see me as I can be.
Those feelings confirmed
Each night as you hold me.
You will always be [...]
