The Sea Inside Of Me

"The Sea Inside"  painting by Samy Charnine

The sea inside of me is blue
navigating the currents of life

my eyes take in a different view

wondering if an end is in sight

navigating the currents of life

golden angel(fish) swim near

wondering if an end is in sight

in silence I shed a solemn tear

golden angel(fish) swim near

colorful scales, singing a song

in silence I shed a solemn tear

my heart yearns to sing along

colorful scales, singing a song

I want to write of love's refrain

my heart yearns to sing along

tell me will I ever see you again

I want to write of love's refrain

my eyes take in a different view

tell me will I ever see you again

the sea inside of me is blue

Here we are humanity

standing at the crossroad

wandering in the unknown

the path we choose will

determine our ideals and

character

Here we are humanity

our lives put on pause

replaying yesterday songs

taking it slow, fast forwarding

could send us spiraling into

a dark hole

Here we are humanity

earth is the place we call home

what have we learned in solitude

have you noticed the air is cleaner

the water is clearer, the sky is

bluer, mother earth is breathing

Here we are humanity

captives of our own environment

the animals now run free in the forests

on the prairies and mountain ranges

exploring new territory while we

examine our mortal existence

Here we are humanity

standing at the crossroad

will you choose the path of enlightenment

or will you heart remained unchanged

open your eyes to the beauty of the earth

enjoy each day it's a precious gift

I felt inspired as we celebrate Earth Day!  

On the news tonight they said while we

are on pause, the earth is rejuvenating.

wishing everyone peace and health

Entering a small shop in another realm of time

sweet scents of sage and citrus filled the air

listening to harmonious wooden wind chimes

greeted by an elder with long flowing hair

Kites in the shape of wild birds flew nearby

Japanese paper lanterns illuminated the room

a breeze blew in , as if,  to lift them to the sky

candles burned with an intoxicating perfume

A guardian spoke  " what you seek is upstairs"

entering a room,  there was a mysterious spell
I caught three woman in a dream unaware

two were rattlesnakes, all was not well

I awoke, sitting in a wooden chair

before me an ancient shaman drummed

chanting in desolation a reverent prayer

hawk and eagle flew overhead to the hum

out in the desert of life, a cactus blooms

I began to speak in an ancient tongue

the mystery of life, I wished to consume

the veil grew thin, this dream was done

I had last night...thanks for reading 

Here I Am

Here,  I am inside my sanctuary, I call home

there's no place to go, no place to roam

I dream of yesterday and all it offered

our world forever has been altered

Here, I am watching the clouds pass by

a trio of blackbirds take off for the sky

I dream of sprouting wings to take flight

soaring the heavens in warm sunlight

Here, I am listening to spring's tunes

hoping to emerge from this lonely cocoon

a blue butterfly waiting for transformation

fluttering through the window of isolation
