Talk With Your Soul

Talk with your soul in order to uplift the world

We can sing with the resonance of the wind

The ripples of a river find music in its flow

And the sun continues to gift us with its light

The world needs our love now more than ever

And our fellows need to put off their fear

Amazing sound and light will heal our hearts

If we will but take it in and let it out

It is in the passage of air and light

That we let go of the fear that touches us

All of humankind must gather in their wake

The grandeur, the pleasantry of nature

Of which we are a portion of the whole

As we allow the words of life to come

We must pass these things down to others

From our children, from our grandchildren

Let us share, let us talk with our soul

All Day

Dreams that emerge from the love in one’s heart

Carry us over the mountains and into the wood

A brandished flower wreath upon one’s head

Dancing around the bonfire and chanting aloud

The dreams that wonder seeks to find

Are little more than bathing in tropical waters

Leading to a treasure under the sea

Drifting over stone white sand and colorful corals

Can we dig up the treasure chest and open its gifts

The jewels that are stored in the subconscious

Swaying to the ebb and flow of the waves

As the fishes in bright costumes flutter by

The immediate wish is to remember these blessings

When wakefulness orders our day

To carry the images in our hip pocket

And see them, delightful, all day

This Time

We begin the search for answers

Where our questions become relevant

To the challenges that we face

Because our health is in jeopardy

So many ill, stressed, dying, 

And we must distance ourselves

From each other, from our loved ones

We must make the hard choices

To keep others safe, in our love

Because we cannot afford to lose

Our dear ones, our friends, our selves

In spite of the wish to comfort

Those who need love at this time

But we will get through this challenge

We will shoulder this burden

Like the people whose strength

Comes from the abdominal fortitude

Of a great people in this time
