Heading Down The Road

 

 

 

 

 

Heading down the road
Going the way
My small voice saids

She saids,

‘Come be blessed and happy
Come travel on the road
The path you’re meant to be
Enjoy every moment
Let not anything just be
Savour, inhale
All the road has to offer
On this great, lovely journey.’

Come along, join me.

Uplifting A Life

Uplifting a life, mine or another
Feeling less anger, strife
With each endeavour.

No one is perfect
No one lives on their own
We are all connected in life
Our world, nothing is alone.

Savour each leaf, honour an insect
Going about it’s business
Unbeknown to the beaver floating
In the creek.

We are all connected
We all need to be uplifting, loving
One another no matter
Our way of life, our beliefs.

We Live In

Amazing place
We live in
Soak it up, savour
Breathe in.

Feel the rain pouring down
The sun soaking in
To the ground fertile and prized
Growing treasures
Where creatures thrive
Live in.

We have it all
We are part of this place
This place, this world
We live in.

Temporary, That’s What They Say

Temporary, that’s what they say
Lasting longer, not happening
No way, no way.

Savour while it lasts
Then go about
Go about your day.

Knowing the best has come
Has visited you
Visited you and stayed.

Just a little while
A little while
Today.

Sadness Has Fallen

 

 

 

 

Sadness has fallen
Upon my heart
Pouring over molten hot
No saviour can save me
Not from this sadness
That breaks my heart.

Content Is What I Feel

Content is what I feel
I’ll savour, taste, immerse myself in this
Then if it dissipates and the world
Around me is hellish
I can recall these feelings of contentment
Carrying me over any rough road
On this my path to glory.

In This House I Claim

Merry, happiness, frustration and pain
All have a place in this house I claim
None are all that places me here
Some more than others
Thats what I hear.

Work thru and challenge heartache, despair
None of which need to live here.

Open the door to the house I call mine
Tread lightly down passages
Down into time.
Touch walls built so safe and sound
Savour the flavour of the air all around
Then pad down aisles and up thru stairs
Glistening with joyous, uplifting prayers.

Cozy and tranquil is my room
Safe from danger, heartache and doom
This is where I live, this is my room
I claim it, I cherish it, I live life here
From birth to death here in my house
Here in my room.

Here I Am

Here I am in the midst of all that I love and adore.
Happy that all this is part of my life.
Savour, enjoy.
Make your world right.
