Eire~

My heart stands in a

faraway land…

Where the air carries the

scent of roses

and the water

tastes sweet.

My soul longs to come home

to the place I belong…

My ancestors left

the land

but the land

never left them…

I dream of this green land

and long for its

embrace~

a place of history and mystery,

poets and song~

My spirit cries to return

in life

but if I shouldn’t

make it

spread my ashes

where the

mountains meet the sea,

somewhere between

Benbulbin and the Slieve~

so that my spirit dances

with the ancestors

for eternity…

Remember

my dear children

your Irish blood

will always run

free…

Shine…

In your hour

of loneliness

In a time

of pain

In those moments

of regret

drowning in tears

broken.

Remember

in time

loneliness passes

pain eases

regret melts

tears dry

We get up

again,

another day

to

Shine…

Snow Moon~

You rise

you fall

you shine

you shade

Into the shadows

Unto the shining

Wishs made

tears dried

Onto the glowing

then the gloaming…

Dandelion dreams

floating away

hold you like

the light

in the arms

of a noble

tree

Inside

I howl

or perhaps

wimper

into the cold winds

of the

snow moon~

Bloom~

In the ‘dead’

of winter

a flower grows

where did it

come from?

Where did it go?

Remember

in any season

we can bloom~

Mother Nature

teaches us

the ways

of old

if we listen

to our hearts

and our souls

we will know

the way to go

we continue

to grow

we bloom

even as the

winter winds

blow…

The Path~

Lies before me

Is this the way?

Roads not taken

leading back to

unknown paths.

Does it matter

which path

I take

if I believe

the universe

knows the way?

I’ve made my

own path,

following

my heart,

it always

leads the way…

I dream

my dream

of a new path

until then

I’ll keep

walking

till I find

the path

or it

finds me…

Floating~

Shifting spaces

shifting faces

floating by

I call to the moon

see me

floating by

I live in a cloud

see me

gloating by

Shifting places

shifting faces

floating by

I walk the forest

Peace.

Grandfather Tree

take my hand

see me

floating by…

Moonlight~

In my dreams

In my heart

In my life

In my death

Moonlight

it comes

it goes

it glows

it knows

Moonlight

In your dreams

In your heart

In your life

In your death

Moonlight

it comes

it goes

it glows

it knows

Into the Blue…

It is time

it is not

too late

to charge

the gate

and take

the weight

to climb

the mountain

to touch

the clouds

to hold

the wind

and sail

the sail

to freedom

to dreams

untold

watching

the unfold

of a good

life lived

before it

slips away

the spirit

will live on

golden~

of its time

riding the

blue waves

floating the

blue skies…
