The Woodlands Sing

I sat upon the mountain top
Gazing down on the earth below
Basking in all the wonders of life
With the sun in the sky, aglow

A gentle breeze blew slowly past
Like the flutter of a butterfly’s wings
Turning my face toward its gentle caress
I could hear the woodlands sing

Their song, the sound of angel harps
Each chord, a gossamer string
Melodies fly on the wisp of a cloud
With the beauty of all God’s things

An Endless Story

Restless, like a wandering sprite

On a journey once found in a dream

Searching for an endless mysterious sight

Cast through the sky like a stream

Of magical orbs that shine in my eyes

Perhaps they’re the answers I seek

Or are they merely a quixotic guise

The power behind the mystique

Ever looking for resplendent glory

While wrestling with the ebony night

Hoping to find an end to this story

I awaken with morning’s first light

Letting the golden sunlight
Pour down upon my face
Resting quietly upon this tree
I find my peaceful place

Where Stillness will Enlighten me

And Serenity shall set me Free

To let me be who I should Be

And find my Heart’s Tranquility

Looking up, I close my eyes
Upon this grassy knoll
Soaking in the gentle warmth
I find my peaceful soul

Hiding in Plain Sight

Waking from a fretful sleep

I feel a tremor slight

Have you been watching all this time

Throughout my restless night

How could I not see you

Hiding in plain sight

Or see your shadow roam about

In the echoes of the light

Was it your soft whisper

That brushed by me in flight

A final request from your own lips

To save you from your plight

I will not be defined
By the color of my skin
The style of my clothes
Or what shape I am in

My size does not make me
Any different from you
Look in the mirror
It’s all point of view

Society has
No claim over me
Trying to validate
What I refuse to be

But I know better
Than any of they
I know my heart
And with that, I’m okay
