Dreams & Moonbeams…

Dreams the dreams

of make believe

follow the moonbeams

where they lead

trust your heart

trust your start

spirit knows the path

to take…

Doors close

windows open

the wind whisper’s

which way to go

listen with your

inner ear

to really hear

the place within

that sparks is

where to start

trust your heart

follow the moonbeams

find your dreams…

 

Power…

Power surges

power urges

it soars

it roars

it cries

it dies

Waves of

hope

waves of

despair

no one

cares

tears flow

emotions glow

another day

another way

power rides

like the

tides…

Waiting…

Waiting~

Waiting for

the change

Waiting on

the rain

Waiting for

a new

hope

to reign

tired of

walking

like a

masked

ghost

ready

to begin

again

for now,

Waiting…

 

 

Letting Go…

Letting go

lighten up

retreating

regrouping

charging

forward

new ideas

new hopes

fighting

for a

new life

had enough

growing old

want what

I want

I won’t

be told

I won’t

fold…

Democracy

today

democracy

died

I watched

rabid fools

destroy a

legacy of

hope

fueled by

a madman

they march

as hate filled

minions

and do

his bidding

democracy

died today

at the hands

of the orange

man

Republicans

one and ALL

OWN this

created this

by support

or silence

you let

democracy

die

now we

wonder

now we

cry

as the

worlds

greatest

democracy

dies…

Done

Done~

done with

living small

so others

feel big

done with

lies from

friends and

flies

done with

asking

when no

one

listens

done with

turning

the cheek

done with

hiding my

heart

done with

dimming my

light

done with

useless

fights

done with

excuses

done with

the past

done with

pleasing

anyone but

myself

done with

the old

done with

the doubt

just

DONE…

Grandmother Winter

Grandmother

winter

I welcome

your embrace

I’ve longed

to feel your

face

To dance

in the

dark~

fire bright

to rest

not to

fight~

the wisdom

in the dying

of the letting

go~

of the fork

in the road~

which way

to go…

Seasons changing

changing seasons

still the roses

grow

trust your wings

you will know

which way

your wind

blows~

Reflect

as our Mother

rests

there is beauty

in the dying~

letting go

room to grow…

Memories

Memories of the

past

Memories of the

future

making memories

that last

holding on to

sweet memories

letting go of

the painful

ones

Traditions from

a by-gone era

flooding memories

of laughter

around the table

the lights

the sounds

the food

the gifts

the memories…

 

Dear Sun,

I love it

when you rise

rainbow of colors

orange, pink,

blue and white

yellow burning

through with

delight

I stand on your

shoulders

MotherEarth

bare feet

feeling your

beat

breathing deep

I release

thankful

in peace…

Death Warrant.

A GLOBAL PANDEMIC

a raging inferno

a wildfire out of control

DEATH.

YOU

want to open schools.

kids falling ‘behind’

need day care.

I want to LIVE.

There is nothing you can say.

If schools open,

it will be a death warrant

for many.

Not your child hopefully

but your selfish demands

will leave other children

without parents and

grandparents…

I am a TEACHER

my choice,

by choice.

I work for my students

I would die to protect them

and now you want me

to die for them

when I don’t HAVE to.

You are signing a

DEATH WARRANT

for an unknown number.

How is that acceptable?

HOW?
