The Light Within

In the gold is a bag of gold

and lo and behold I am told

it’s always there.

Abundance flows

and he who believes is she who knows

and in this light and all around

there is gold dust to be found.

And where you seek is in your heart

and where you dwell is within

and there within

in your heart center

is the one:

your life mentor.

So go within and there is gold.

Spread the precious dust you find

to all around and leave behind

anything that no longer is

an essence of the way you feel.

Bring yourself to the well

and presently she who is

is she who dwells.

So here you are happily

being yourself and being free.

The gold, it’s true is inside you,

the well it sits within

so draw your life’s flow

from the bubbling stream

and light will shine

so leaves will gleam

and flowers are the gifts for you:

petals soft and colors rich,

this is the way of Nature’s gifts.

Bring yourself the gems there are

and share the light from every star

and live the way your heart knows true

so being yourself is healing you.

tree peony flower on October 13, 2014

It was the first and the only bloom.

This photo was taken in a windstorm,

and the verse came to me

as I saw the golden pouch-Doctrine of Signatures,

when I uploaded the image on my camera.

Glorious Flowers For You

 

 

Candle Larkspurs blooming today

in Mt Lofty Botanical Gardens, Crafers, South Australia

 

 

 

Moss Is Mostly Silent

This is seeded moss

being mostly out of sight

and likely in-between

where it was in the winter rains

or where it may flower again.

 

You know there are possibilities

of one day 

being in a moss green place

where you see someone in a forest 

so you may silently pass by

or maybe

feel invited to sit, rest, and wonder why.

 

Stepping Through

There are times when we are 

just walking by under a blue sky

and a sign steps you sideways

changes that day

and the next

as what you thought was the best 

to follow along on your path

was suddenly shifted to become

a few days where you go elsewhere

and answer a call out of the blue

to help someone else

and to support them through

in ways you never dreamed

to change all that was

to all it may help us be

clear to surrender what had mostly been

a life that came to include

someone who was not there for you.

I see it differently now

It was not us, and it was not me

who created his life

as he always was and continued to be

nine years old it seems.

 

So I came to be with you 

to farewell your Dad from this life,

from all the times he abandoned you,

we come to see 

in his lifetime, new ways were not to be.

We may now go on and leave him free.

 

And we know now,

we are shown new paths to follow

with love surrounding us

so in our hearts we may remember

a few times when we all had fun

sharing a brighter love.
