A few months ago my life was helter skelter
Now, I rejoice, in the laughter at the shelter.
There is never a problem that one of us has not been through.
There is always joy and understanding even when skies are not blue.
We have our own experiences.
We have compassion in the pain.
But, now, I am at home in [...]

When I come to the place of Silence
With a heart full of laughter and joy.
It is in that moment
That I am the Master’s toy.
When I allow Him to give me instructions
When I put His work at the ‘fore
When I dedicate all my energy and actions
When I [...]

Evening
shadows
close in
on the
mountain’s stream
creating a beautiful portal
into the world
of dreams.
Reflections

I see
Only
stumbling blocks.
I find my way
Into that cool
Lake of Love
I discover
Myself.
I discover
Stepping stones
calm acceptance.
Knowledge
of all
Gifts .
Everything leads
to
the Mountain of God.
I see
then
I was created in His image.
Everything is
A reflection of
my own beauty.
Memories of stumbling [...]
The Wind of Change

The Wind of Change is blowing
Setting the bonded free.
Taking the heavy burdens
Tossing them in the Sea.
My home is a palace…a temple of Praise

My home is a palace,
A temple of praise.
A place of worship,
A portal of joy.
A launching pad
‘Tis my jumping off place
I embrace and am renewed
I bask in the Master’s grace.
I have sunlight enough
To flood over my face.
The moonlight calls me
To its sweet embrace.
The serenity, the safety
the sensuousness of the place
Often has me blushing
With enjoyment of [...]
Healing comes in many forms

Healing comes in many forms.
A hug.
A smile.
The morning mist in the sunrise.
The evening fog at sunset.
Gifts fresh from a child.
Prolonged desires from an old one.
Medicines picked with tradition.
Brewed with love.
Served with ritual.
Accepted with respect.
Offerings offered.
Kindnesses given.
Hearts made open
By constant giving.
Healing comes
In many forms.
A fireplace to keep us warm.
A delightful laugh.
A candle light bath.
A famous person’s [...]
