Drawing new life, from the universe
I remove the madness, end the curse

Shine, in my own spiritual light
Earth below me, a glorious sight

Sends up fire, to brighten the dark
In my soul, ever creating, a spark

A flare in the sky, exploding with power
This is my one, though not, final hour

To make good, for all I have sinned
My life, total chaos, the perfect whirlwind

Now calms, with the stars, sparkling bright
Transcending my thoughts, deep into night

Awakened refreshed, the burden, now lifted
My reminder that God, this life, He has gifted

To me, and only me, to discover my worth
Before my life ends, tis my living rebirth

Overwhelmed by simple tasks
What is this I have become?
Sadness, behind my smiling mask
Truth is… I am feeling numb

Emotional, at the slightest change
Tears flow, and for no reason
Even to myself, I feel quite strange
Perhaps, it is that time of season

Where leaves once painted the trees
Now they lay, lifeless and brown
I watched them whirl, in the breeze
On their way, swiftly, falling down

I can relate to the leaves, you see
I’ve spiraled with them, for so long
Much like a twister, roaming free
Yet, unknowing if I truly belong

I carved myself a window

Chiseled away the hardened earth

Just in time to catch the light

Of a fiery sun’s rebirth

Orange painted clouds rejoiced

As the rays chased away the night

Flocks of feathered creatures

Took off, on a journey, aflight

As for me, I sat in awe and wonder

Watching, as day took its place

And colored my eyes with majesty

All this, through my own little space

I
Am one.
A simple
Yet complex root.
With new beginnings,
I plant my feet, and grow.
The mighty earth, under me
Nourishes my very being,
Nurturing my heart, however brief;
Until the moment I breathe my last breath
And I become one with the earth, again
Mixed in the soil, of a thousand years
Below the ground, where I once stood
Strong, and unwavering, though
At times, I would quiver
Much like leaves, in spring
Wishing for life
To return
Within
Me

Autumnal colors,
Russet and red,
Draped in a cape,
That covers her head.

She tucks inside,
The golden locks of hair,
Her mama told her,
To never bare.

A mist forms around her, ever so,
There, in the forest, unafraid, though.

They envelop her,
In a magical dance,
She smiles, happily,
This is not happenstance.

Knowing it is they,
Who come to call,
Every November,
Near the end of fall.

And this child awaits, ever patiently, their arrival,
For she counts on them, for her very survival…
