Nature’s rich grass shirt
Sun shine through its open weave
Stirs my waking soul
Wanting-for-nothing
Resting by a flowing stream
Hum the river's song
Longing to be full
Vessel gifting everything
Making room for more
What is left behind
When our vessel decants life
And we're carried on
Dry Brown with crisp sound
Bracken in the winter wind
Saving space for more
Your dreams can hold you
As stars are always shining
Even in full sun
Midnight’s darkened sky
Listens for the wind to blow
Louder than my breath
Standing still in time
Filtered from the winter sky
Broken through spring ground
Written in water
Settled from a winter sky
Flowers break spring ground
Rain dimpled water
Droplets bubble under trees
Dreaming of a lake
Soft raindrops falling
Give themselves entirely
To the summer sky
Feeling the tide's pull
Draw us in and push us on
Through life's mystery
Footsteps leading through
The landscape of my life
Precious as my breath
Walking in nature
Silent through a forest grove
Toward the other side
Unexplainable
A light that shows the way home
Followed by my heart
Distilled from these tears
Love plays its pure melody
Through a joyous heart
Only a true heart
In the dark night of a soul
Will guide us toward home
Bursting into sky
With freedom and awareness
Life's candle burns bright
Bright blue dragonfly
Restful as a match unlit
Dancing on life's flame
Grass seeds on tall stalks
Woven through the Nootka Rose
Pink with fragrant blooms
Sparks of sunlight flash
Riding backs of ocean waves
Laugh to sand's delight
A flower of love
Is subtle and deep seeded
Washed in warm colors
The flowers of fear
Shadow bright sun and dark rain
From our true feelings
Delicate lotus
Floating lightly on the lake
Softly holds our breath
My heart has written
The song of its love for you
In music I play
Listening to you
Breathing with the world today
Brings me joyful tears
Love has found me here
Playing on the magic strings
Of my own guitar
Opening the door
Life’s wry tingled feelings
Lead us all toward home
Mottled yellow leaf
Clinging to your tree so bare
Why do you hold on?
Waves wash through the sand
A gentle rhythm draws us
Deep through shadowed woods
Water finds the sand
It left high up on the beach
Spring tide long ago
Listening to the waves
I could hear the shadowed place
That we all came from
Waiting for the frost
To etch a crystal question
On my open mind
The snow crust is broken
The moon haze plays on my cheeks
I warm from inside
Her eyes stir feelings
Looking at her distant world
Yes, I can feel it
Sun shine through its open weave
Stirs my waking soul
Wanting-for-nothing
Resting by a flowing stream
Hum the river's song
Longing to be full
Vessel gifting everything
Making room for more
What is left behind
When our vessel decants life
And we're carried on
