Sweet Little Periwinkle

I found a little flower

with a lovely song to sing

and graciously it smiled to me

and there was everything

the light 

the blue

the seeing you

the shining face

the simple shape

the turning wheel

the healing green

as beautiful as ever seen

::

Your Inner Garden

Weeping

waters your inner garden

so all the hidden bulbs flower

with bright new life.

These are for you xxx

 

You Do Not Walk Alone

From Epilogue:: A Course In Miracles
 

Before The Autumn Leaves

I thought I saw
the royal blue sky
a day to die,
leaving from home in perfect time.

My home space was the best outlook,
soon a room
without a view,
certainly shall miss you
as silently I farewell this place,
depart all past and reach for Grace.......

I take nothing with me
I take no thing with me
I will be nothing then
no thing will matter
I will be an empty vessel
less all
I ever loved and nurtured,
I will take the normann vase at best
one winter scarf,
not my bed
but a beanie for my head.

My heart will not come with me
I will 'die'
before I die
I will stay and never leave
I will weep myself to sleep
like I did the night before,
no new outlooks I need explore.

Call me please and I will come
let me leave
and go
Home.....
before the autumn leaves

Blessings Peace and Beauty, Love Always

Togetherness

Zen master and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh

"I have seen an old, untended garden,

where the cherry and peach trees

still bloom wonderfully

and always in time."
