Depression

Depression is collapse
to negative thinking.
Beliefs containing hopeless
thoughts insure sinking.

Spiraling low into
deep emotional pain,
your energy and strength
disappear down the drain.

Stop. Check the endless flow.
Life need not be bizarre.
Stop. Take a look within.
Remember who you are.

Light of our Creator
smiles bright within your soul,
Alpha and Omega,
Eternity unfolds.

You walk safe through Forever,
wrapped secure in Love’s light.
Nothing to fear from nothing.
Compassion ends each fright.

Resolutions Anyone?

Will you make a resolution
The first of this new year.
Could it be a real solution
Not just something insincere.

Might it cite a repetition
Of eating much too much,
Your personal admonition
For this stress-reducing crutch.

Might it list too much drinking
Of a numbing, mindless wine
That causes loss of thinking
And invitations to decline.

Might it mention smoking, betting,
Or fear of your chosen course
That makes your day upsetting
Causing you deep remorse.

Whatever your resolutions
Speak them with no askew
Because the real solutions
Lie there totally, within you.

Holidays are Here Again


Holiday toast
Turkey roasts
Baked bread aroma permeate the air
Pumpkin pies sitting in the windows
Hot dressing
Baked yams
Golden corn

Presents neat
Candy sweet
Nestled beneath the radiant pine tree
Wrapped with bright papers and bows
Kids already
Taking boxes
Opening gifts

Adults talking
Eating listens
Reviving friendships of days gone by
By shaking hands, with hug, and cry
Wonderful time
Children’s play
Christmas day

In the silence

In the silence
To be still and hear
the calling of my soul

To be touched by the light
that infuses my body
with life

Light that gives me strength
as I allow myself
to tap into a knowing of truth

In silence I can hear
the quiet whisper
of love itself

I can hear
the laughter of joy
as it encourages me
to open myself
ever so gently to touch
the heart of another

In silence I can hear
the message from my own heart
beating in time
giving the breath of life
that makes way for energy,
movement and expansion
of my truest Self

A Self that is embraced,
honored and loved

Living in faith

Surrounded by hope

Protected by the light in fact,
the essence of what is

It is in the silence of my soul that
I am able to fully connect to the divine light
That lives within,
shines through and connects us all…
