Take This Dream


Take this dream
under the stars and moon
have the courage to travel the unknown
create a haven in night's stillness
your soul knows the way

Take this dream
be gentle with yourself in darkness
believe you will reach your destination
let your thoughts reach the unreachable
listen to ancient wisdom in your soul

Take this dream
focus on the desires of your heart
follow the winds of transformation
take time to find harmony within
listen to the songs of your soul

Take this dream
build upon it in the morning light
turn it into something beautiful
share it with those who need a vision
embrace the poetry within your soul

Take this dream, I am too tired....

Happy Trails

Shay's from Muse #82

The prairies stretch out before me
there is silence in the wheat-fields
giant leafy trees are rare to see

the road goes for miles and miles
leading one to places in the mind
the journey full of trials and smiles

 galloping with the wind bareback
hooves pounding, hearts beating
riding together leaving our tracks

 exhausted we stop, taking in the sun
our wandering songs, drift in the air
some things in life you can't out-run
but, in this moment, beauty is everywhere

written for The Sunday Muse

Thank you to Carrie, Shay & Chrissa

Shoe-less - A New Start

The Sunday Muse - photo prompt

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

my shoes are worn from the journey

I often wonder has it been worthy

my soles burn from a heavy heart

barefoot, I dream of a new start

 

shoe-less, my toes dig in mossy fields

in green meadows, wildflowers yield

traveling roads, filled with dark parts

barefoot, I dream of a new start

 

my soles,  cool touching the earth

exfoliating debris, feeling rebirth

spring's renewal, a work of art

barefoot,  I dream of a new start

 

"Spring is when you feel like whistling, even with a shoe full of slush"

Sojourn With Me

Sojourn with me on the river of poetic birth

swift canoe, ready to embark on a journey

paddling fresh waters of deeper thoughts

riding the currents of a changing world

 

listen for whispers of the ancestral land

through the mystical lens, eyes begin to see

communing with the trees, stars and moon

taking in the wonder of the great unknown

 

enlightenment in the blue spectrum of life

experiencing a bond within mystical dreams

for in this vast universe, all is connected

leaving imprints, wherever,  we traverse

 

carrying an ancient medicine bag of herbs

for all shaman must walk alone for a bit

to sing the deeper song of the spiritual self

worn moccasins a testament to the quest

 

pressing the essence of nouns and verbs

consonants and vowels creating words

through the dark and light places of life

feathering  an epic adventure in free verse

 

drift  with me to the land of wildnerness

be brave, trust you inner warrior spirit

surrounded in mystic rings of moonlight

dipping far beneath the rippling surface

 

wander with me,  to a long ago time

where towering cedars sing us a lullaby

wooing  weary hearts, to an ancient drum

dawn offers glimpses to the poetry of life

 

travel with me my poetic friend

let us see what our hearts will pen

Lantern's Glow


Truedessa's Collection

   It's all about how you
   travel the journey

Do you take life slow or
 are you always in a hurry

My heart yearns to know
 do you follow the lantern's glow

Would you pause and dance
   with me under starlight to
     the nightingales song

written for dVerse
writing a Quadrille of 44 words
incorporating the word "glow"
