~ dedicated to my friend,  V ,  just because

I shall shelter, store and nurture
All my inner treasures, true
In the red house, wee and wondrous,
That I share with just a few.

It’s a place of warmth and comfort
Every inch of it imbued
With good will and peace in concert,
Safe abode for me and you.

*Inspired by Imaginary Garden with Real Toads

 

you slip out of bed
and out of country
so easy
you become
the one in charge

you slip from my arms
and from my safety
so easy
to assume
the role, enlarge

you slip ‘neath all eyes
avoid detection
so easy
using wisdom
lead the march

you slip from the life
that we created
so easy
no victim
but my heart

 

*prompted by Sunday Scribblings ~ Easy

 

let me
look into your peepers,
soul to see

let me
saturate myself with
your energy

let me
open up the windows of my heart
willingly invite you from the start

let me
Love
you

 

ice cubes melted.
water glass sweat.
puddled,
left a ring on the wood.

most days
this would be upsetting

but today?
not today.

today
you melted
down.
you sweat
puddles.
you left a ring on the wood.

Upsetting?

*past stanza one… pure fiction

 
“One of the hardest lessons we have to learn in this life, and one that many persons never learn,
is to see the divine, the celestial, the pure,
in the common, the near at hand-
to see that heaven lies about us here in this world.”
- John Burroughs

Heaven lies about me
Here ~
Every single day
through flora, fauna, human form
Divinity does say
This world is filled with wonder
Enjoy it.
Laugh. Dance. Play.
Love yourself.
Love others.
Walk with Grace and pray.
Namaste
