Sailed I once
into your blue
and fell as ash somewhere –
washed with rock
along the canyon carved.
Homeward
(closer) to the sea
you carried (lifted) me.
Guarded I the seed
became your kingdom.
No more than one –
one tiny grain –
but there a garden grew
with trees so tall
they skirted heaven’s rafters.
Another home
was anchored there
with view to lands above –
No less than kings
love resolved to love.
Sailed I once into your blue
and fell as ash somewhere.

Dear Bobbie, I have been away, carried away by a multitude of earthly duties… these words speak to me in this way… we are God’s garden… Love, Dee
Dee, if we are the garden, you are the rarest of all roses! Your presence lights up my world. I hope all is well and that we shall see more of you soon. But regardless, know that wherever you go, you remain ever (still) in my heart. ~ Love to you, dear friend. ~ Bobbie
I know that blue well…
as I tend to fall often into it
though I rise higher each time I come out of it

…for surely the wind whispers to us ‘ soar’……….. 🙂 Love to you, Maryrose. ~ Ever, Me
…and wrote of kings
and other things
a cedar tree and dove
of memories of paradise
of happiness and love.
Ah, darlin’ girl, did I like this? Surely not ! Loved it would be more the idea, wouldn’t it now. ~xo~

And I am surely blessed that you do………. xo Thank you, Paul.
I love this line, Bobbie:
“they skirted heaven’s rafters.” – such beautiful imagery. With love. xo
Angela, I’m never surprised when you find the words – those for which I have no explanation for their being – other than they are. Thank you, dear one. May this day be blessed with all you love most. ~ Bobbie
I feel the swell of life from your words Bobbie. Love always, Xx
O, Jane………..my words could want for nothing more than simply this……….to have found a place with you. ~ Love to you this beautiful Sunday……… ~ Ever, Bobbie
There is always such a wealth of beauty that arrives in your poems, painting visually scenes that a mind easily embraces and loves…your words give life to the reader in an abundant and radiant way…you light always shines so brightly in what your selfless heart always shares…such a gem! I have sailed a few places in my life, but it is always a blessing to sail your way! Love the poem and you my sister! God bless you!
I’ve never known the joy that is sailing, but know the joy of soaring……. You are such a blessing to me, Wendell. If words did nothing more than bring your light into my life, then I shall give thanks for them through all eternity. Thank you for you. ~ Always with love, Bobbie
