Thoughts of Thanksgiving

Thankfulness resides in my heart
may each sunrise fill me with hope
seeing beauty, nature a work of art
thankfulness resides in my heart

grateful words from my lips impart
as the sun slips beyond the slope
thankfulness resides in my heart
may each sunrise fill me with hope

Winter's Silence

Snowstorm by Maurice de Vlaminck

snowstorm 
angels in white 
beneath a snowy birch
 drifting  in the arms of  winter 
we sleep

 ~

 fresh snow 
winter's silence
blanketing our bodies
nestled as one we hibernate 
melting

Chasing Dreams in a Drifting Sea

                              

I want to feel the sun

but, all I see are clouds

I wonder where the journey goes

I wonder where it ends

I am but a vessel in a drifting sea

chasing rainbows in the land of make believe

loving you with a full heart

it's the only way I  know
letting my emotions flow

I can't let your go

I want to feel the sun

but, all I feel is rain

I wonder where the journey goes

I wonder where it ends

I am but a vessel in a drifting  sea

chasing rainbows in a land of make believe

Loving you seems easy

some may call me a fool

the world can be cruel

Sometimes we need to break the rules

I want to feel the sun

but, all I see are clouds

I wonder where the journey goes

I wonder where it ends

I am but a vessel in a drifting sea

chasing rainbows in a land of make believe

crystal visions before my eyes

believing we are kindred souls

your words make me whole

for that  dream I gladly pay the toll

I want to feel the sun

but, all I feel is rain

I wonder where the journey goes

I wonder where it ends

I  am but a vessel in  a drifting sea

chasing rainbows in a land of make believe

Loving you with a full heart

I need you to know
 I can't let you go

to you my heart I bestow

Note: Sharing with Poets United ~ I am not sure if everyone can see the video so I posted the poem as well. They are two slightly different versions as I couldn't decide which one I liked better. All pictures are my own except the blue rose as that artist is unknown.  Thank you for visiting.
