Quiet Places Within
Friday, May 26th, 2017
I notice the sky. I see fully the sunlight that bounces off the brick buildings.
I notice the clouds. I take in the shapes that fill the limitless view above me.
I notice the birds. I feel the expansive wings that encircle my very beingness.
I notice the trees. I feel the arms of the universe surround me.
I notice that beauty encircles me, light fills me, and nature supports me.
I live in a world of sounds that teach me to be alive and present.
I Came to Love (Poem)
Tuesday, May 16th, 2017
I came to love
To give more love
To receive more love
I came to love
For the great mystery
Of the language of the heart
I came to love
For the magic
And the great magicians
I came to love
To learn about living
And to appreciate the dying
I came to love
To fall more deeply
Into a connection
I came to love
Fumbling and failing
And learning from it all
I came to love
As a child, friend, spouse
Strangers known and unknown
I came to love
And it met me
And I said yes
