The Best

All things new erupt in spring
The heat of summer helps them grow
Autumn risks the rest of time
Winter brings the end of things
So the cycle comes and goes
Life is fragile, life is sweet
Ready for the lift of emotion
Giving, taking, wandering, waiting
So the life of each person goes
The good, the bad, the peace of it all
We can be blessed with harmony
If we look to the heights of love
And understand that each being
Is doing the best they can

Invasion

Eyes following your every move
Waiting in every corner you go
Supposing to be friendly, kind
But having an overtone of creepy
How does one evade the gaze
That sneaks up and moves in on you
As if there were some reason 
To be in your way, saying, “hello,”
Not having a reason, as you believe
The bit of disconcerting presence
That suggests that you be fearful
What?  Why? Who is this stranger
That takes and makes such confusion
But the hands don’t tremble
The heart refuses to beat faster
And, perhaps, there is a wee bit of anger

Flooding through the mind today

The Moon

Higgety, piggety, the moon is a sphere
Loppety, moppety, we drink its light here
Even beneath the shining orb
We can expect nothing as we absorb
The vibrations of energy in sound and light
Raise the veil, the promise, the chant
For this night,all we desire enters our sight
We must only fare well as we get what we want
When the sun comes up, we are sure to find
The perfect will to open the mind
And understand our power, the Universe
Draws nigh to provide what we rehearse
Bring us, O Great One, our fondest dreams
And allow us harmony in all it seems

Everything

Those not with us anymore
Look down from heights above
They see and know what’s in store
They shower us with love
We may not see them everywhere
For they are on a different plane
But we can feel their tenderness
In places where they’ve lain
If they could send us messages
And I’m sure enough they do
They’d send their love and the best
For all our endeavors, too
They are not on some floating cloud
They’re close at hand, just not loud
And so it seems we can share 
The highlights of our day
Not to make the time go faster
But to know we’re on the way
To touching with their heartfelt joy
For that is what they bring

The light, the love, their everything
