Dripping, soggy, and wet, from nature’s sneeze

Leaves, soaked in dew, a brisk morning breeze.

Glistening light, from soft rays of the sun

Another day of beauty, has nearly begun

Sun rises ever quickly, against a muted sky

Brings about warmth, and with her, I sigh

Each morning, when I awaken, with eyes wide

I thank the Lord, for another day, diversified.

When I can longer find the courage to face the day

And the things I have been chosen for, go wrong

I hand it over to my Keeper, His love shines the way

With His most serene, and tranquil light, making me strong

The Center – #poetry

You are the center of your universe

Making things, so small, much worse

Always with a scornful look or sneer

To even those you once held dear

While time is fleeting, passing you by

All you think of is an eye for an eye

How silly it is to go on living like this

Instead of kindness, you choose to diss

Those who gave their precious time

Who, in your eyes, are quite begrimed

This I offer, though you won’t hear

My words, no matter, are very clear

Seek His peace, and hope, and light

Then learn to love instead of fight…

 

Author’s note: I have been struggling to get through health issues as well as family issues, but I’m over it.  I don’t mean to sound harsh, but for my own healing and well being, I have to move aside.  These words are the final pouring out of a very hard decision that was, unfortunately, inevitable. Thank you for reading…

I am okay
But you didn’t ask
You were too into
Yourself
To even notice…

I wasn’t

But that’s alright
Really, it is
Because I shy away
From false emotions
What you think
I want to hear

I don’t

My self-esteem
Has been through
Enough
I have made
Peace
With myself
And my God
And that is
Why I am
Okay

Really.

So many candles burning, no brighter than a single flame

Dimly lit distractions, another one, they’ve come to claim

Keep your eyes on the colors, red and yellow float away

Spirits, in the mortal plane, release hidden souls this day

Guard your loved ones closely, lest they be taken, too

When the time has come, alas, they’ll also come for you

Fear not they who visit, regard the plan they must keep

To gather those who’ve lost their way, gather in the sheep

Lead them to greener pastures, far away from hurt and pain

Then remind us, there will be a day, we’ll be together, again
