Winter Solstice - Celebrating Circles

amazingpics.net

 As shortest day meets longest night

we  cross the bridge of wonderment

under the heavens stars burn bright

guiding the journey to enlightenment

Arising from darkness, sun tilts its head

in mist of ancient songs, rattles and drums

fires ignite within hearts, burning cherry red

harmonious vibrations felt, universe hums

there is no better time,  and time is now

calling, calling, calling our spirit home
breathe, ahhh

Finding purpose in the greater realm of life

silver starlight streams from heaven to earth

healing waters, washing away scars of strife

aligning energies, frequency of love gives birth

In sacred chambers, we drop our heavy cloaks

within dreams the ability to walk in two worlds

nurturing thoughts,  wisdom in a forest of oaks

star beads illuminate the sky, cluster of pearls

there is no better time,  and time is now

calling, calling, calling our spirit home
breathe, ahhh

Awakening our consciousness, drink up

intuition guides , connection of knowing

tasting joys of life, sipping from the cup

expanding beltways, new channels flowing

Bridge between two worlds, Pleiades awaits

traveling places we have known in dreams

holding the golden key, opening locked gates

glowing lanterns of starlight & moonbeams

there is no better time,  and time is now

calling, calling, calling our spirit home

breathe, ahhh

Artisan Bread Crafted Crusty Shapes

Fresh aroma fills the room

artisan bread kneaded

& crafted with loving hands

a delectable  orb with a star

rising in the cozy warmth

forming a brown crusty shell

protecting the inner lining

soft white fluffy clouds

gently breaking the bread

dipping my thoughts into

olive oil  & flavored herbs

tasting the richness of life

taking a small bite, I offer

you a fleshy piece of my heart

leaving crumbs in the journey

to help you find your way

closing my eyes,  I wonder

where you are in the world

a star shining oh so bright

I make a wish, just for you

In Silence - I Hear

Pic personal collection

In silence I  gaze  upon  still  waters
holding  an envelope of hopes and  dreams
blue  heron watches  from   marshy  quarters
the  clock  strikes three  all  is not  as  it seems

In silence, birds sing I am not  alone 
fresh  ashes  symbol  of my intentions
a journey quest  into  the  vast  unknown 
slow rhythmic breathing releasing tensions

In silence, I  blow  kisses  to  the  wind 
carrying  my  voice on  the wings of  change 
honoring  visions ,  mother  nature  grins
aligning  thoughts  a  time  to  rearrange

seven  messages, words drawn from  the  heart 
in silence I sense calmness, a fresh start

With Soft Hands I Sigh

I wanna hold your hand by Josep Ma. Roselldd

my hands lightly linger...

to feel the splendor of you

eyes closed I trace your face

pausing to inhale your scent

lost in the moment of discovery

my hands gently tremble

to feel your heart beat with mine

eyes open I gaze into your soul

pausing to inhale a breath of life

finding my way in flickering light

my hands take hold of yours

to feel the warmth of your being

eyes blazing in a midnight fire

pausing,  I part my waiting lips

found within the hands of time
