my reason ~

stay and tomorrow
will find us this way
near as a beat
to the other
someday
clearing a path
where no one has been
marked in the passing
remember me when
the trees
were but babies
and heaven this close
we touched
without touching
held on letting go
blossoms the color
of Eden removed
and you were my reason
for coming back new
to lie neath
a blanket
of evergreen flame
as one with the stars
called
by name

as shadows
revealing
the reasons we came

. . .

forgiven ~

forgiven
the lies
ten thousand times told
while I lay
sound asleep
in your arms
tangled in stories
tell them again
but leave out the parting
the tender goodbyes
one more
to remember
the letting allowed
while pages
we turned

tell me again

. . .

eternity come ~

red tail
and we won’t be long
for the keeping
fingerless wings
brushed into dawn
by ten thousand
mornings
lifetimes beyond
the promise of heaven
eternity come
as the first boughs
were broken
this measure
of love
as arms to surrender
light from above

. . .

stayabit

listen
and there
the sound of forever
when first
stirred awake
from a long summer nap
dreaming of snowflakes
ice on the pond
angels are spinning
already
around
while spirit endures
the intention of time
– softly she sighs
autumn leaves

. . .

for a while ~

how long
and for a while
it seems I might remember
these paths –
though so familiar
are disguised
as something more
a moment rare –
a time I thought we knew
the way was bright
and we
becoming one
journeyed in the sunlight
across on boards
of clay
felt the shift of worlds
beneath us
closed our eyes
swaying
leaning into love
recalling once again
the feel
of home

. . .

this little heart ~

in this
little heart
where I have held
all I know of love
the windows reach
around and back again
as night birds sing
amazing grace
above a robins rest
babies sleep
breast to tiny
breast
daybreak glows
a loving hearth
while cedars
bend and moan
to bear the wealth
was never meant
for bone

. . .

per chance ~

was once
you loved a younger me
eyes where softly glowed
the picture perfect image
of another destiny
a soul consumed
with where the road began
it never was
but for a time
one night i dreamed
i knew the way by heart
ageless constellations
signs and swords
appeased
by echoes
of my laughter
down the hall
photographs and poetry
per chance
my rhyme to meet
in stories
yet unwritten
heroes all

. . .

the weight of worry ~

sweetly

An associate at work shared this with me. Some things deserve to be passed along.

****

A psychologist walked around a room while teaching stress management to an audience. As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they’d be asked the “half empty or half full” question. Instead, with a smile on her face, she inquired: “How heavy is this glass of water?”

Answers called out ranged from 8 oz. to 20 oz.

She replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it’s not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed. In each case, the weight of the glass doesn’t change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.”

She continued, “The stresses and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. Think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt. And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed – incapable of doing anything.”

Remember to put the glass down from time to time.

. . .

from here
the heart is heavy
with weight
most surely long
though not for
love’s enduring
either make
a grace unknown
and guarding
of truths we cannot lose
a step or two
from once
we were
begun

. . .

every please ~

recalledandthen

there are none
the same as I
lovers knitted close
met with ancient
whispers
in the dark
when want
for one more daylight
morning
to confess
fingers weave
in sacred reverie
prayer infused
with promises
holding you this way
once more
let me answer
every please
remain
return
remember
when life is surely gone
carry there my name
on silent lips
let the door be opened
wherein my heart
is kept
free the night
to sail beyond
the pines
