Thistles, Thorns and Brambles

have we lost our way

in the thistles, thorns and brambles

can we find a clearing

where poets are free to ramble

the meandering of their minds

about a world now in shambles

can we find a seed of hope

scratched we now scramble

Thank you for visiting 

Peace and hope

Today

Today,  God sent me a rainbow
an arch stretching the heavens
a symbol of hope & unending love



Today, God sent me an airbrushed sunset
dipping over the horizon,  twilight's song
focusing  on the gift of light, day shifts to night

Always!

Truedessa

In a dream we connected

our journey cosmically aligned

surprised by the unexpected

blinded by grandiloquent light

relinquishing everyday reality

awakening in the arms of night

true love never dies, look to the sky

I'll send you a wondrous work of art

I'll  send you a piece of my heart

living in a world filled with poetics

reaching places never truly seen

stories written, our energy kinetic

heavy are the tears of daylight

will you see my message of love

or will you let it fade, out of sight

true love never dies, look to the sky

I'll send you a wondrous work of art

I'll  send you a piece of my heart

these days I'm singing the blues

why have you drifted so far away

perhaps, you've found a new muse

closing my eyes in the heat of night

escaping the borders of new reality

spreading my wings to take flight

crossing realms to embrace fantasy

I'll send you a sign, a sign from above

A sign of my love, I'll send you my heart

always

always

always

a work in progress - I reserve the
right to rearrange this piece

I was feeling really blue one day
sitting outside exhausted and this
heart shaped cloud formed before
my eyes.

I Am Connected

 I am pieces of you and me

strung together in birdsong

feathers and wings

I am one with a buffalo

tuning into the spiritual

realm, with each beat

of my heart

I am of the hawk & eagle
birds of prey/ who (prays)
using my inner intuition
seeking higher vision

 I am of bone and turtle rattles

in tune with the animal

kingdom and their songs

I am of the blue heron
learning patience and balance
in times of need

I am of the wolf
who tracked me in a dream
with a message of hope & love
for a friend

I am of the deer
messenger of healing
and regeneration
in touch with
life mysteries

I am of flesh, bones, talons
feathers, wings,  web feet
shell, fur and hide

I am more than meets the eye 

if only you would look deeper

sharing with earthweal
writing about messages from the wild

I have an amazing relationship with
animals of the wild.  They always
seem to show up to offer guidance
in my life.

I pondered this prompt and this is what
spoke to me.
