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 [...]

I have a little garden where bird’s sing all day long.
They sing of their joy and laughter.
They sing of the hereafter.
They sing and they tell me
All heaven’s joy is here now.
I watch them through the window.
I watch them throughout the day.
They teach about gratitude.
They teach me how to pray.

Of my loving Higher Power.
The Sunlight of the Spirit

I watched as my pain
Formed into rain.
It renewed the earth as it fell.
The earth sprung up
Into the mountainous skies.
The beauty was shards to Soul.
I caressed the

wanting it to cut deep.
Cut away the dross.
Cut away the loss.
The peaks were covered with misty fog.
The peaks were covered in rain.

Just learn to see the Master
In everything before your eyes.”
The following was written in grief [...]
