Growing Hope

Growing Hope
lines altered as
ripples begin to
express the light
That is found
Deep within
Walk again
In the compassion
We all know
Is the path to love

UnBeating Heart

Unbeating Heart
I waited too long
To know that closeness
I had so longed to feel
You would laugh
And cry just timely
I never understood
Until after we hugged
Our goodbyes
And no more tomorrows
For you and I together
Many moons have passed
I knew I loved you
Friends were what we…
…
I cried hard at the goodbyes
No comfort came from you
I knew you were better off
No more hurts nor pains
I had to forward and I did
But the feelings, the longings
Carry on…releasing you with wings
Fly away…fly off into space
Drop by a star or two
And share your amazing light
I still love you, my forever angel.

He Washed Me

We were sitting
Together he and I 
Just talking
About life and love
I asked him
Explain love to me
I had seen so much
Complexity
I wanted to know
More of love

He left for a moment
I felt all alone
A bit distressed
I longed for him
To return and he did
Carrying a bowl
Of water and a towel

I looked confused
But decided to see
What was to come next

He took my hand
Rubbing softly
Each muscle
Massaging me
My breathing
Slowing down
I am comforted

He takes a sprinkle
Of the water
Caressing my hand
Dabbing
With the towel
Letting
This loving care
To sink into
My very being
He said softly
This is love
Please go and spread
This love
Everywhere

Sharing a Secret

Inside of me
There is a secret
A secret wish
I sometimes share
With those who care
My secret wish is
Invisible to see
Those who seek
May not always find
Calming to touch
But only felt
With kind hearts
For love
Is found
Only with sharing
And grace will bow
Upon each who care
To believe love is real

Sharing Love

Calling Out
Around the world
For all to see
The blessings near
And far 
Love surrounds us
Hope lives on
May we see the rays
Of Love’s Pure Joy
Thanks to those
Who love and care

You are loved always. ..YALA

YANA: you are not alone…think about all those who have been with you over the years…someone gave a smile…someone gave a hug…someone held your hand…someone handed you a tissue…someone danced with you…someone told you a story…all those people are still with you even if they are with you only in spirit…they are still a part of your life~pharris2011

Mystical Night

 

Standing alone
A breeze brushed
My arm
Sending shivers
Down my spine

Quickly
My attention changes
Challenged by
A new presence

A moment focusing
A tap on my shoulder
And instantly awoken
As if only a dream

Standing tall
Under the moonlight
We begin to dance
In the shadows
Of the trees

Freely swaying
And galloping
Around and around

Lost in the motions
Time forgotten
Freely laughing
Clear minutes
Of pure joy
Etascy experienced

A buzzing sound
Echoes
Gaining speed
Getting louder
My alarm wakes me

Distant memories
Of my dream dance
Dancing in the moonlight
And in the shadows
Oh, one day I shall return
Until then…just memories
