The heart can often see

what’s invisible to the eye

and oceans are never crossed

by standing on the shoreline.

E.A. Fussell

You realize etiquette is ridiculous when

you are all getting ice cream cones and

etiquette says you should WAIT

for everyone to be served

before you eat….

then your ice cream

is melting

down the sides of the cone

and over your fingers

because

“Ice cream DON’t wait”

My heart has a secret door

And there are very few it opens for.

It might be for a lifetime, or a season

Or maybe just for one specific reason.

My mind likes to think it’s in control

But truth is, I never know for whom the hinges of my heart will roll.

Just for today I will not worry.

I will activate healing positive energy within myself

and send it out to others,

aware that each positive vibration I send out

will reverberate through the Universe.

(Repeat daily)

I look upon love from a distance

Observing an intimate  moment

Between two lovers absorbed in each other

Unmistakable passion beneath simple actions

I look upon love from a distance

Observing the undeniable truth

Between the battle for my heart and mind

Unmistakable, feed my mind, you will capture my heart

“And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.”

John 1:5 KJV

darkness is arrogant

Filling the universe

Moving across the face of this earth

It wants to be all encompassing

It has forever tried to overpower Light

darkness is subtle

You may have heard it’s whispers

In gossip or inappropriate comments

darkness is bold

You may have heard it’s shouts

In various groups demanding equality

darkness is violent

You may have seen it’s destruction

In mass killings, racism, war, hate

darkness is diverse

You may have seen, heard or felt it

In books, movies, speeches, Conversations, charitable organizations

darkness takes good things

Twists them and uses them for bad

Religion , sex, music, art, the internet

darkness will continue

To try and subdue Light

Light will always shine through

Light walked among us centuries ago

And darkness comprehended it not

When the time is at hand

Light will return

Completely encompassing all beings

And the land

Then darknesses may comprehend

She hung her heart way up

on the moon

Far away from love’s

blaring tune

She hoped the melody

would fade away soon

Dear Snow,

I miss the way you feel

falling on my skin.

I miss watching you float

gently on the wind.

I miss the cool weather

you need to exist.

Making snow angels with you

is hard to resist.

Our time together

was way too short.

Perhaps one day

we can have more.

For now Florida

is my port.

No snow in sight

of any sort.

Dandelion oh dandelion

Upon you I make a wish

And blow into the wind

Hoping ever hoping

The love of my life

You will conspire to send

Yesterday’s Poem:

Failed Romance colors my heart

Bright moments impressed in time

Gentle memories soft as feathers

Passionate kisses…fights…embraces

What-could-have-been shining brightly

What-was…casting shadows

Word wounds deeper than a knife could cut

Healed over with scars of forgiveness

Knowledge that I would do it all again

For those moments,

When we were in total sync

those wonderful fleeting moments

Of total bliss~
