Whispering wind calling forth~Let me in, let me in~No, says I~For deep within~I know the Truth~And you are not it~But, whispering wind continues~I can only see you are~A bringer of fear to me~This I do not want~Nor will I accept~I am free, I am free~Let me be Me,~For I know the Truth is where I want to be~Alive and Free~~~pharris2013

the gift

A Secret for You…Pass it along.
the gift
a secret once given
of an image once portrayed
only in one’s mind
now come to life
rarely found
was this one secret
I had to know
it would be cherished
or at least
appreciated
I looked at you
one day and saw
you were the one
the one who
would receive
this one special gift
how to present
it to you
so you would know
it was special
I found a place
to hold the gift
so dear
dear friend
please keep this close
and pass it along
a smile is so dear
it awakens so much
keep the joy
and pass on the gift
Smile…Heartsmile…

During a rainstorm at dusk, there were ripples forming as the droplets of rain came down. Each unique drop making its own statement with the formation of the ripple. Look at me, look at what I can make, I helped…these droplets were saying.

Sometimes, ugh. Sometimes, smiles. Sometimes others think wow, she is just trying to be better than others. When I just want to be heard. Here I am, just someone who matters, as we all matter. Sometimes trying to survive. Sometimes are just some times. Always me from beginning to end. Ever-evolving. Grateful for many. Remembering sometimes just being is enough.~pharris2013

choices in the Joyney
Step into the unknown.
A blank page, some water.
Vibrant paints
and the imagination
can take hold.
Here we are
looking into
what might be
maybe this
or could be that.
But what is to come is
Only what was meant to be.
The joyney is here
Present always.
A step this way can
only mean life goes on.
Time now to create
from unknown to known.
