Found in Rhyme

Like wind that whips through trees, afraught

Howling through my endless thoughts

Gathering round enlightened space

Of visions that have found their place

Inside my heart, the dreams do swell

Swirling, down an endless well

Of letters brought together, words

Of poetry, my heart now stirred

With dreams and visions, once lost in time

Now blended beauty, found in rhyme

Mistletoe Fairy

reindeer-1503666_960_720She flies throughout the silent night

Above the shimmering snow of white

Bedecked in the colors of Christmas glory

Spreading the news, her mistletoe story

Of lovers who wait in an aura of bliss

Hoping to steal that one special kiss

As she quickly drops her petals of green

Then quietly vanishes, contented, unseen

Whisper to Me

Tags

, , , , , , , , , ,

Whisper in the silent night

Of promises, of morning light

Talk to me in tender tones

Caress my ever aching bones

With words that speak of thoughts anew

Ones that call to me, from you

To guide me through the darkest days

Quietly, in compassionate ways

Your understanding heart, so dear

You speak the words my soul can hear

Yes! Whisper to me in the night

Of promises, of hope, of light

Let Me

Tags

, , , , , , ,

Do not cling to me

For I am not the wall for your vine

Do not hold me so tightly

That I will not be able to sigh

Do not hover over me

Lest your shadow block my sun

Instead, give me space

The air I need to breathe

I am not an object

But an entity, a being of the earth

Let me flow with the breeze

Let me shine in the light

Let me…..be me
