The Miracle of the Seed


It is amazing how a little seed


can make a beautiful flower


they just keep growing


until they bloom,


help people to smile and


bask in the miracle


of God's art

For my friend Kadi


always believe

and

you will get through

whatever the world

hands to you

Trust that God

knows the way

to get you through

everyday



God will provide peace for your heart

My View


To be inside looking out

is strange

Can I help you

with what I see

do you even need

to hear from me

maybe I should

keep it to myself

since

the colors I feel

are all too real

but no one has to know

does it even matter

is it for me to show

maybe

but I don't know

embracing change


change is scary because


it is uncertain


we don't know


what lies ahead


all we can do is


stay true


try to follow


the peace path


and trust


trust that God


put the steps


in our hearts


before we could


even walk

Focus


Things look good today
alternate between the before and after
Is there something more
waiting is the lesson
patience with time
follow the pathway
stay in line
Keep focused

Conversation with God

I know I am blessed but I also am picking up that I am missing something that I should be listening to......this is my poem to God

but what is the path

you say it is there

and you say I'll know it

but I can't see

what is blocking my vision

why can't I sense what is ahead

it's there

but the distance blocks

the view

logic


I still try to figure things out


things that don't seem


to have a logical answer


things that makes some feel helpless


like a leaf being carried by a current


what can one grasp


what is real enough


to grab hold and hang on


I don't know

Listen with your heart


Listen to the quiet

there is always a voice

it can be

heard in your heart

God will use it

to show you the way

the quiet brings the wisdom

use your gifts

share the peace

with those who

need it

a soul picture


It is best to take a cue

from children

live in the moment

have fun

swing and

feel the wind

laugh

make the soul smile and

take a picture

to always

remember the feeling

standing in the storm

How hard is it to
stand still in a storm
feeling the wind
it wants to move you
keep you head clear
until
you can be one with
the wind and
see the path

The Moon

The moon so gorgeous
so high in the sky
people all see it
at different times
It connects us really
though we don't know how
We all feel the beauty
and
sense the peaceful presence
If we just
sit back and look


Enjoy the beautiful gifts!!

being thankful


I'm tired

but it is okay

I'll have more energy

another day

some things have happened

to make me sad

but

I won't forget

to be glad

for all the blessings

I have had

life is full

of surprises

good

and bad..........

I'm thankful for the lessons and for the journey

following the path


to follow the path

can be hard

when

you can't see the outcome

when you can't map

the way

but

follow the peace

understand the experience

feel the journey

it will be

okay

the Blocks


take out a piece
clean it off
put it back
maybe eventually
the black will leave

one by one the pieces
will start to shine
a little at first
but they will get stronger
and more illuminated
with time……

a new day


Every day is a chance to start over

a chance to make a difference

a chance to move away from fear

what is holding you back

let it go

take baby steps

toward the sun

feel the warmth

on your face

you are important

and can be used by God

to help other sweet souls

in need
