A nosy neighbour stopped one day
Deposited a virus
Then went away.
I could not write.
I could not bank.
Now I can.
I know who to thank.
Monthly Archives: July 2008
I live in the Rapture
Goodness gracious, I survived.
Now I am turning sixty-five.
With my adventures
no one thought
I would be alive.
With my Higher Power
now I thrive.
A good book says” A season comes, a season goes.”
No one questions.
No one knows.
I keep rejoicing.
My love grows.
My love of duty.
My love of service.
I have no time
For being nervous.
A life full of laughter
Some joys.
A few pains
I am so thankful
To dance in the rain.
The goodness and mercy
That come from my Higher Power
Provides me with the Light and Sound
Love pours over me in a Shower.
“Showers of blessings”
was an old song we sang
It started way before the
School bell rang.
I came for the adventure
That was my Choice.
Now in gratitude
I raise my Voice.
I live in the moment.
I am safe from harm.
I bask in the love
Of the Master’s sweet Arms.
I am turning sixty-five
Who knew I’d be alive.
I am blessed.
I am safe.
I can hear His sweet Voice.
I throw back my head in laughter.
My song is “Rejoice.”
Song of the Virgin Maid.
I must go down to the sea, the Ocean
To the river
To the lake or a pond
I want to immerse myself in its cleansing.
I want to float in it all day long.
I want to be sustained
I want to be in love again.
I want to be re-connected to life.
I want the moments of holding you close.
I want to be your wife.
I want to re-connect with myself.
To take me out on a date.
I want to give me the best I can.
I want to be my own wife.
Gosh, I can hardly wait.
I must go down to the sea
To the river
To the lake or a pond
I want to immerse myself in its cleansing.
I want to float in it all day long.
I want to keep my heart open.
I want my heart to sing.
I want to jump in that wonderful
Ocean filled with Love and Mercy.
I want to hear my own name.
I want to see the Master.
I want to hear His Voice.
I want to be in His Service.
I want my life to Rejoice.
I must go down to the sea
To the river
To the lake or a pond
I want to immerse myself in its cleansing.
I want to float in it all day long.
I want to hear my own name.
I want the knowledges of the ages
That flowed on bended knee
I want the Master, the Creator
I want His Love to flow through me.
I want to keep my heart open.
I want my heart to sing.
I want to jump in that wonderful
Ocean filled with Love and Mercy.
I want to hear my own name.
I must go down to the sea
To the river
To the lake or a pond
I want to immerse myself in its cleansing.
I want to float in it all day long.
Have you ever been?
- Have you ever been so busy
That you forgot to breathe?
So wrapped up in knots over something
That you could not change,
Even if it was your business to worry about
it or try to rearrange.
Have you ever been so lonely
That you take yourself out for tea?
It is a moment to discover how wonderful life can be.
Have you ever been so grateful
That you could not stop praying
And giving thanks for the bounty?
Have you ever been so mindful
That you could sit and do no-thing?
When you can do that
you are truly living in the moment
Making your Soul rejoice.
Have you ever met yourself
Coming from a place
You had no business being in
But you escaped because of the Master’s gaze?
Have you ever watched the morning sunrise
Fill the skies with purple hues
That flutter into golden sun beams
Which chase away the blues?
Have you ever sat in wonder
Of the Beauty of the Master
His silent solace which is sweet with surrender
Makes the purpose arrive faster.
How can I put Heart in it?

How can I put “heart” in it
When my heart is broken
From saying too many good-byes.
Some folks were wrenched from me.
Some were adopted out.
Some moved away.
Some forced themselves out of my realm
By their actions, abuses and scorn.
When I get past the anger
Will I just then quietly mourn?
Or will I take the high road
Basking in the bliss
Of knowing those who have translated
Are now safe at Home?
Can I be forgiving
Of those so full of scorn
Knowing that they “know not what they do”
Their friendship I no longer will mourn
Why am I so willing
To turn the other cheek
When I want to rip their guts out
For the harmful words they speak.
When do I know the “Is-ness”?
Am I living in the “now”?
How do I put my heart in it
When my heart is full of pain?
How long do I have to wear
Clothes when I want to dance in the rain?
I think I will jump the time-track
Collect my laughter, joy and peace
Release all this emotion
Of sorrow and pain
To give me the energy to make baby quilts again.
Soul is not is this sorrow
It is just the emotional self
So I perceive, dear Master,
I can choose to put this
Mind stuff on the shelf.
My Elders are with you now.
It is natural to feel alone.
I only need to focus
Keep my eyes on
The Purpose
The Goal
Sit and do nothing.
Bask on the Heavenly Throne
Let Spirit have the control.
I need to be in the moment
I need the Is-ness of now.
I want to be without an agenda
But I really don’t know how.
To live in the love and the mercy
To bask in knowingness NOW.
Grief is part of living.
Letting go is all I must do.
Acknowledge that life
Is just a series of lessons
That all things are a gift.
I can reach out to another
Who is still stuck in the fog.
I can be a ‘server to those whose serve’
Knowing that I, also, am one.
I can and will reconnect with life
I can live in the Heart of the Master
When my heart is too full of pain.
I can release the morass and the dross
I can be whole again.
Service is the key.
Giving love in all my actions.
Dedication in all I do.
Being mindful of another
Will help me see it through.
Thanks for this talk dear Master.
I am blessed to hear your Voice.
I can laugh through the tears
I can run through the years,
As long as I am listening to your Voice.
Let me always be listening
To the Sound of the Rain
Of Spirit as It washes over me
Making me whole again.
May I always be in the Spirit of the Fire.
May the Flames purify me.
May I serve with Desire.
May I give this day my Intention
To be all that I can be
Then I can put my Heart in It.
Then Soul can be truly free.
All my life I have been in training for this Moment
All my life I have been in training for this Moment
To Sit, relax and think of all the wonderful things I have experienced.
More importantly, to live in this moment.
To breathe in the Sunlight of the Spirit.
To smell breakfast coffee perking.
To hear the laughter of my neighbours.
To listen to the children at play.
To enjoy the songbirds, ravens and crows as they greet the morning.
To see the Light and Sound of God manifested in everything
Within and without me.
To hear the gentle Voice of God in the breeze.
To be able to see, hear, walk, move and enjoy Soul in this body.
To feel the deep joy.
To experience the loss of my Elders.
To just be.
Now I can truly say as I shower and greet the dawn
I have been in training all my life for this Moment.
