I Just Wanna Drive

Pixabay

Sitting in my car the sun is shining

sunroof open, Ray-Ban's on....

taking in the panoramic view

I'm feeling alive and I just wanna

drive, drive , drive....

Traveling the road searching for a

piece of yesterday....

The radio blasts out a memory

I hear your voice it's crisp and clear

and I wonder do you remember me

or have treasured dreams disappeared

now, I'm longing for a piece of yesterday

when rock n roll took center stage

at least the songs haven't gone away

withstanding time in a restless age

Sitting in my car the sun is shining

sunroof open, Ray- Ban's on....

taking in the panoramic view

I'm feeling alive and I just wanna

drive, drive , drive....

Traveling the road searching for a

piece of yesterday....

Where Is Peace

Sometimes,  in my sorrow

I wonder what has happened

to dreams of peace?

The world is spinning in a

counterproductive motion

and I wonder who or what

will stop this course of

destruction

Mother Earth is waiting, when will

humans open their eyes and see 

the scars they have left in the forests 

lakes/rivers and atmosphere

Closing my eyes listening to

the messages of the ancestors

there is hope as dreamers,

teachers and healers are called

forth to take a stand in this

modern world

Sitting cross-legged under the

willow boughs, breathing in

calm evening air, tapping my

hand-held hoop drum to the

beat of my heart

A chorus of birds perch in a tree

chirping in tune with the melody

closing my eyes, my worries

float away in the rippling water

A feeling of  weightlessness

thump, thump, thump....listening

as nature awakens, calling me to

a place of harmony. 

My breathing shallow, sensation of warmth 

I am ready to take flight, a visitation

the great blue heron lands by my

side.  

In this state of consciousness, I find 

a place of peace...

To have peace in the world we need
to become people of peace

Guardian - Goddess of Cemetary Gates

Who am I,  you ask?  Do you really want to know?

I am the guardian of eternal silence
protector of souls

Who am I, you ask?  I am the gatekeeper to

the mysteries of the hereafter, many

enter through iron hinges of altered-reality but,
 only the living leave hauling hearts of grief

Who am I, you ask? I am goddess of  

eternal rest, on  dark rainy days

listen, the weeping willow cries

mourning for life's losses

Who am I,  you ask?  I am the caretaker

of sacred ground.  As you walk upon

the land be mindful, leave an offering

flowers, prayers and even tears
watering the soils of yesterday

Who am I, you ask?  I am key-holder
of lost dreams and nightmares
locking away pain and sorrow
from the journey of life

Who am I,  you ask?  I am Goddess Guardian

of  Cemetery Gates.  Mediator between

darkness and light...
I am the watchful eyes of

a thousand souls wishing to be free

Dreams are Priceless

Dreams have enriched my life

I've danced beyond the clouds

I've flown with mystical dragons

I've crossed the boundaries of my mind

I've found adventures in unexpected places

I've created songs and poetry from my heart

I've found pieces of me in the night
