Blue Moon Moodiness

source unknown













Today, I view the moon in her full glory
I should sing her praises for the gift of light
through darkness...

BUT...

Today, I feel the moon her dark side
shadowing my thoughts and heart
in this world of confusion

WHO...

Will give witness to the goodness of life
opening the doorways to the unknown
glowing in heavenly light

WHAT...

will it take for humanity to see
we share this big blue planet
eclipsed in darkness and light

WHEN...

Will the sun warm our hearts
eternal love radiating outwards
to those who only know cold

WHERE...

have all the lost dreams gone
have they fallen into a vast crater
void of time and space

WHY...

Today, must I ride an emotional tide
uncertainty circles, earth is changing
awakening, under a blue moon

Poeming - Connecting Words/World

Unknown source












Poeming it's not just about connecting words
it's about life
                   love
                     hopes
                      dreams
it's about death
                      heartbreak
                         despair
                           nightmares
it's about humanity
                    nature
                      realism
                        surrealism
it's about justice
                    injustice
                      darkness
                         lightness
it's about people
                    you
                       me
                         us
Poeming it's not just about connecting words

Signature of my Soul

source unknown















I pen words, creating my life story
leaving imprints, signature of my soul
verses in a field of morning glories
inscribing messages on birch skin scrolls

leaving imprints, signature of my soul
singing songs of the weeping willow
inscribing messages on birch skin scrolls
tucking intentions under my pillow

singing songs of the weeping willow
embracing light of a higher presence
tucking intentions under my pillow
lacing stars around the neck of heaven

embracing light of a higher presence
believing in mystic dragons; unseen
lacing stars around the neck of heaven
honoring creator for gifting dreams

believing in mystic dragons; unseen
following the beat of my inner drum
lacing stars around the neck of heaven
honoring creator for gifting dreams

following the beat of my inner drum
verses in a field of morning glories
honoring creator for gifting dreams
I pen words, creating my life story

author's note:  Form used Pantoum
the inspiration for this poem came
from an unexpected oracle.

Bouncing From Here to There

I think there is wisdom in  
grasshoppers, choreographing
their  journey one bounce at
a time...always moving forward
to the rhythm of life.

singing songs from their heart
taking leaps of faith ..seeing
beyond the concrete world
knowing fields of green are
waiting for discovery
