My home is a palace…a temple of Praise…dedicated to Justin….

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 this space.

I live among the joyful.

I live among the free.

I live with joy and laughter.

Come over one day for tea.

My home is a palace,

A temple of praise.

A place of worship,

A portal of joy.

I thrive on the abundance.

I move within the song.

I wish I had the time

To be here in my palace

All day long.

I would fluff up my pillows.

I would turn the music down low.

I would put my feet up.

I would read or relax.

I would make the baby quilt.

I would paint my picture.

Or draw.

I would never have to go to work

I would not have to be a part of the maw.

I would sit and watch the birds

As they play among the trees.

Alas, I have my obligations…

I have clothes to mend.

A pot tea is waiting

While I eat bannock with my friend.

My home is a palace,

A temple of praise.

A place of worship,

A portal of joy.

I saw the Master’s hands

I saw the Master’s hands

In every tree and brook.

I felt His sweet caress

Everywhere I looked.

The clouds, the trees,

the birds, the breeze

all were an expression of love for me.

 

I felt the Master’s touch

in the majestic mountainside.

I basked in the sweet kiss

as the morning mist

crashed, crushed and caressed me inside.

 

I was helped, held, and healed in the embrace

Of my loving Higher Power.

The Sunlight of the  Spirit

Rolled over me.

Again and again.
I am now in a holy place.

 

I was washed in the mountain rain.

I was cleansed in a Ocean filled

With love and mercy.

It removed the first hundred layers of pain.

 

The waterfall in the mountains

renewed me through and through.

I am ready to rejoin life.

I might even want to be with you.

 

The love of Master is always with me.

I know that more today.

I am glad I went to the mountains.

I am so glad I stopped to pray.

I was helped, held, and healed  in the embrace

Of my loving Higher Power.

The Sunlight of the  Spirit

Rolled over me.
It stays with me this hour.

Shards of Spirit in Mountains

I watched the sky.
I wondered ‘why?’
(Why is life more intense?)
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
shards with my eyes;
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.
The peaks were breathing in glorious snow.
I was very jealous.
I needed to feel that connected.
I wanted to lie on the top mountain peak.
I wanted to caress the forest’s floor.
I wanted to know.
I wanted to be.
I wanted to be real.
I craved renewal and purpose.
I needed to be free
of the pain of your passing.
I wanted to feel.
Stillness.
Freedom.
I longed for
a mission.
I had to have
the compulsion to go onward.
I did not feel anything like that at all.
Then the Sun came out.
It silhouetted the trees
Covered them in a raindrop-halo
which glistened.
While they danced in the breeze:
the beauty poured over me,
the beauty bombarded Soul,
the beauty went through me.
I drove away whole.
Now in the rear-view mirror
I have my direction.
I will return to the mountains
I will walk through the valleys and peaks.
I will do the next ‘right thing’.
I will be a mountain or raindrop.
Depending on the day.
I will be in touch with my life.
I will learn to say no
To the needs of another
When my own needs are intense.
I will return to these mountains
when I need to get in touch
With my loving departed parents
Whom I long to hold so much.
I put a rock in my pocket.

My dear friend,
The wake was tonight.
The funeral tomorrow.
I want to protect you from all that is so raw, so new.
However, if I truly love you
I will be with you when you say your ‘byes’.

“Put me in your pocket…so I’ll be close to you
No more will you be lonely, no more will you be blue.”
I do not have a magic marker to take away the pain.
I do not have the answers why you can see only rain.

I do not know the season
the date
the time of year
But believe me, it will happen
“You will be able to see your way clear.”

Do not stop the feelings, do not stop the pain
Do not stop the crying (there is so much more to gain)
When you kneel before your loved one
Know that they are going to the “Altar of the King”
That your sorrow maybe the footprints
That they can follow Home.

They have loved you from forever.
Forever yours they’ll be.
I will be with you in the morning
When you say your ‘byes’.
I will be with you in the evening
When all you can ask is “Why?“

Iwill  be with in the noontime

when your sorrow shows at work.
I will hold your hand.
I understand.
My love can be a perk.

I have recently lost my elders.
I know the pain has taken its toll.
But the love of the Comforter
The Great Spirit
Helps to keep me whole.

I will be with you in the morning
When you say your ‘byes’.
Look over your shoulder
Your Higher Power is walking with you.
The love of the Master
Will see you through.

Standing in the Moment

Standing in the Moment
I can forever see.
The meteor shower takes me home
Beyond eternity.
Beyond this moment.
Beyond this time.
This bridge across forever
Takes me home to stay amist the stars
My loved Ones are are all waiting and watching
On that far distance shore.
Standing here in the Moment
I do not feel any more pain.
My heart is full of laughter
As I embrace the gentle rain.

I can almost feel God’s grace.
I do not want to leave there…
But then, I turn and see your face.
I have loved you for forever.
Your beloved I will gladly me.
I see you smile.
You reach out your hand.
Then I awaken.
Oh, love I want you to know.
Standing here in the Moment.
My love for you just grows.
I do not want to just love you in the dreamscape.
I want to be yours for goodness sake.

The Beloved of my Beloved

How rare it is to find
To find a woman
That I do not mind
Being
The Beloved of my Beloved.

She understands him.
She listens to him.
She enjoys him.
She will be getting a wonderful life.
When they make their vows and
She is his new wife.

I have loved him from forever.
This lifetime it was not meant to be.
Now I embrace the darling lady
Her wisdom I gladily see.

In December for her Christmas gift.
I will give him a divorce.
She can then embrace him always.
I honour the Beloved of my Beloved.

She makes my heart very glad.
She laughs with him and loves him.
She shows me he was not “so bad”.
I will always be grateful to
The Beloved of my Beloved.

I thank them both.
I wish them well.
I really think that “she is swell”.
The Beloved of my Beloved.

Meet me in the sunset
Dance with me in the rain.
Hold me in your heart dear
Till I am in your arms again.

We have travelled many miles
We have waited for each other.

Until we kiss as lovers do

Knowing love will see you through.
Meet me in the sunset
Dance with me in the rain.
Hold me in your heart dear
Till I am in your arms again.
Your eyes hold so much laughter.
Your heart is so full of pain.
Do you not know I am waiting
To be with you again?
I know not the time or season.
I only know you will receive.
I know only this my darling…
You only have to believe.
There is always someone caring.
There is always someone who knows.
There is me my little darling.
Who cares wherever you go.
Meet me in the sunset
Dance with me in the rain.
Hold me in your heart dear
Till I am in your arms again.
So, tonight, in your dreams my loved one
Be sheltered in the love

Till I am in your arms again.

Mother and Father are Home

As a little child I dreamed of the Day
They would be together again after the Divorce.
One Christmas, while visiting Father
He asked me to call Mother.
That was as close as I came to hearing them laugh together.
Until now.

Now, they are home with the Master.
They are with the Creator of All.
They dance acrossed the moonlight
They sing among the stars.
I am so happy they are Home now.
Free of all the scares, the scars, and now in their Sacred
Place…..I am very happy for them.
But, sometimes, I just want to touch their face.
So, I do.
I will serve with more determination.
I will tell the story of your love.
I will do this all in His name.
Till I see you in the dream garden.
Until I smell that sweet perfume
Of a Mother and a Father
Now in full Bloom.

I go among the stars.
I dance across the moonbeams.
I capture joy in the rain.
You know damn well I miss them.
I will walk through this pain.
I will live in the moment
Of their expanded dream.
I am rejoicing for their freedoms.
I am sad they had to go…
Before, I tell them one more time
I loved you so.
I do not miss your sorrows
All the pains that you went through.
You are my precious teachers.
I am wiser, stronger, and more loving
Because of you.

Could we meet tonight in the garden of Dreams
With the Master?
Can I please you just this one time?
Can I acknowledge that I picked you for my parents?
Can I say something open and freely
Can I tell you face-to-face?
That I love you my darling parents.
I am so glad you knew of the Master’s loving Grace.
Tonight, when we meet in the Dream garden
You will finally know.
That I love you.
I love you enough to let you go.
I will serve with more determination.
I will tell the story of your love.
I will do this all in His name.
Till I see you in the dream garden.
Until I smell that sweet perfume
Of a Mother and a Father
Now in full Bloom.

Go on with your Journey.
Go on with your rejoicing.
Be glad that you are Home.
I will see you in the moonlight.
I will see you in the stars.
I will hear your laughter in the voices of children
as they play.
I will live my life to honor you.
As I never have before.
I will bring you beauty in my thoughts
When I come to that far distant shore.
I will in that moment
When we have our next embrace
Be a reflection of your beauty
And that abiding Grace.
You were not perfect parents for the masses.
You were perfect parents for me.

I will serve with more determination.
I will tell the story of your love.
I will do this all in His name.
Till I see you in the dream garden.
Until I smell that sweet perfume
Of a Mother and a Father
Now in full Bloom.
You are orchids in His garden.
You were gardenias in mine.
I wonder in the raising of my parents
Did I show them a good Time?
Did I reflect their Beauty?
Did I show them the wisdom they imparted?
If not, then perhaps next lifetime
I will.

I will serve with more determination.
I will tell the story of your love.
I will do this all in His name.
Till I see you in the dream garden.
Until I smell that sweet perfume
Of a Mother and a Father
Now in full Bloom.

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.
