The Arrow’s Journey-poem from my book Jewels of Awe December 22, 2007

The Arrow’s Journey

We wear no mask
Upon our face
We walk around
Made of glass
Easily shattered
Wounded or broken
We aim our arrow
Straight for our target:Happiness

What gets in the way?

The loss of innocence

A tree

Our own hands

Bowl of Fruit- from Jewels of Awe December 22, 2007

Bowl of Fruit

 

 

Your face
Turns dark
A shadow on the wall
Hides from view
I miss the sight
Of love
The scent of morning dew
Dust fills the room
Paintings hang
Upside down
Fruit sits quietly
In a bowl
Waiting…

To be eaten

Endless Beauty- a poem from my book Jewels of Awe December 22, 2007

Endless Beauty

Dream
Into being
Happiness
Of a garden
Planted with seeds
Of joy

Growing into
Full blooms
Of peaceful contentment

Blossoming
Into light
Filled of

Endless beauty

We Began- a poem from Journey of A Woman December 22, 2007

We Began

Many tides
Rolling into my heart
Fingers like bows
Take their aim
Sharp as the sky
On a cold winter’s day
I will give you
All the sunrise
Has to offer
Blue skies
Calling me again
Lift the heaviness
From your hands
With a sweet smile
Tell time
It has no reason
To worry
We began
With always written
Across destiny
