Poems

Good morning, may the kindest of moments be laid upon your table,
and may you provide the love to others whom are not quite as able

May you provide generosity, and give of yourself freely to to show
the light of kindness which upon you has been bestowed

The gifts that have been given you, that are realized are from God,
and meant to be through your demonstration passed on from above

You will know, as it comes to you in joy and happiness,
that you weren’t in search for, they just came to exist

The love that you give from the cup of your heart,
will be refilled again, the more you give out

Please provide your smile, as a beacon of kindness,
without being spoken,
and share it as, ‘the door is always open’

Not to advise, rather as praise,
for the blessing that you have been given
To give out others, without a condition

May your awakened dreams continue to provide for you

Fascination without hesitation the top spins round and round

Bobbing, weaving, movement skipping, until it lies itself down

Bouncing at first throw, the second not quite as high, the third and fourth,

then many little, until it settles to the ground

The shake of the rattle, and then more and more, to provide a new sound,

to delight, give substance to agility, a new sensory has been found

A siren passes by, a slight turn of the head,

a look off to nowhere a questioned glance over to mom or to dad

The cat jumps down, not as graceful as it thought, and scares me as I play,

I pay but momentary attention, then go about my way

A quick wipe of my face, a slight aroma wafting near,

a smile on my face, just so we are clear

Then a nod, as eyes begin to close, a little more wobble while on my butt,

but I will fight, and try, certainly, to-shake it off

But higher powers in control of my life, will dictate what is best,

will lift me, then put me down, but actually for their rest

But I’ll be ready much earlier than them,

to get a jump on my day, maybe a little noise to help,

help them on their way

They’ll come quickly, and speak kindly, I’m the king,

don’t you know, as I provide gentle persuasion, as I begin to grow

But the Love that surround me, is always felt and known,

making me happy, it’s so grand to be within this home

As I approach the darkness and quiet at the edge of the woods

Glimpsing into the forbidding chasm that feels will engulf me

I ease up to it, and gently move in

the wind softly brushing tree tops, a sense that feels eerie

One step further, the crunch of snow under my boots

Almost reaching their tops, and a bit uncertain

The shadows cast, from a bright winters moon

Drapes over me, like a velvety curtain

I carry my armor, with my buddy, as we go side by side

Looking for that special spot, that will give us something new

His nose vacuuming the terrain, my eyes focused ahead

Searching for the right spot, to bring all into view

And then with the hike, comes the pond we were in search of

Where we’ll hunker down, and wait for first light

Awaiting that moment, closely sitting together

At that split second, our along awaited plan, comes into sight

Pop, pop bang,bang, bang as barrels pointed upwards,

with my pals tail alive and waggin

But no plop, plop into the water has been heard, a little off the target,

and nothing we’ll be baggin

And so goes that day, one of many missed opportunities,

as they all got away

Just hangin with my buddy, made all the missing,

still seem to feel ok

So my feathered friends we bid you, a happy goodby,

and perhaps at another time

That we might come together, where the stars will all align

So fly gracefully into other parts unknown,

with thanks from me and my pal,

as we happily return home

In the stillness of mornings first awakening,

before its light, has begun to shine

When the quiet that pervades, time of peace and calm,

be what’s on your mind

The sound of HU without being heard, of a gentle reminder,

and awareness

An easing into the moment, with its warm embrace,

and its graceful caress

Reflections of what has passed, and lessons that have been taught

Provided by the visions, in contemplation and in thought

One step forward, without caution or despair

Followed by another, with a message, not necessarily to share

So as you proceed, on your path, from the light given from above

Let your aura be seen, as grace, kindness, and that of Love

And when your day has passed, may you know with in your heart

That all that you have done, knowing you’ve done your part

The day begins, the morning starts, and a new journey has arrived

As the awakening moment appears, as you open up your eyes

Things to do, places to be, as they come into your mind

A fresh start, cast upon, and another new time to find

Nothing pressing, to be done, a moment to gather yourself together

A quick look outside, to decide, and measure up the weather

A quick yawn, turn of the neck, and the stretching of the arms

Shaking off, yesterday, as a new day returns

So smile on the present, and greet it with Love and Joy

Given unto you, that you may enjoy
