abuse is not love

the dew drops of sadness penetrated deep into my soul

as i cried thinking of how he hurt you so

i cried until there were no tears remaining

i cried because  the life i brought into this world was found aching

i cried because your life is precious …i love you so

i cried because you are precious to me, more than you will ever know

i cried because you lost belief in your own worthiness along the way

i cried because you thought his cruelty was okay to stay

now the secret it out in the open

now the words were finally spoken

now you have a second chance

now you have a road out of the trance

be strong in you, believe in you, you are strong

you are worthy,  go to your core, know you do belong

you are worthy, guard your gentle soul

you are worthy, look to yourself to make you whole

you have all you need deep inside

allow yourself belief  in the love that does abide

you are never alone, we are all one

choose this and begin the run

know that i love you and always will

know that i love you…please do instill

Mothers love…even when it hurts

what can a Mother do

even if it means being misunderstood

what can a Mother do

but protect her child’s womanhood

*

what can a Mother do

when she sees her child hurt

what can a Mother do

but try to provide her comfort

*

what can a Mother do

but sacrifice her own joy for the safety of her child

what can a Mother do

even if it means her exile

what can a Mother do

even if she is reviled

what can a Mother do

but love her child

“Patience…desired by many, possessed by few”

long are the seconds

… the minutes too

long is the time waiting for you

however, I know…

   darling, YOU are worth the blue

     I know when you arrive…

     that love will spring

 like the daffodil  thrives

what better way to spend the day

peach pie, Peru, and you…we play

love is something…isn’t it so

simple things in the pie dough

love is something…what a breeze

Peru we find you as our midnight tease

“thumb war”…it is “SomeThumbing”

the message came and I did fly

with my thumbs down from the sky

Prometheus you may be the star of fire

but my thumbs are everyone’s desire

abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

over the keys my thumbs flew in a breeze!

words running here and there

texting… texting don’t you dare

the send button jumps at me so quick

lexicons I must pick!

but before I can execute the send

there you are with a message again!

a day of promise that turned sadly into clouds

the day began well

and then all was hell

why does someone have to rain on my parade

why do I  find myself betrayed

why do people hate so much

why has humanity lost its touch

what is gained from such disdain

why can’t we be happy with each other again

begin anew …think the positive not just for a few

is not the world large enough for me and you?

i will not allow myself to be annoyed

i will not allow the demise of joy

i will seek the shelter and warmth of love

i will seek solitude in the above

a friend

a friend…

is a blessing

there is no second guessing

a friend… a reflection of yourself

a friend helps you jump off the shelf

and keeps you buoyed in the splash

does not run off in a mad dash

a friend..

…a blessing

you do not need added dressing

you are who you are

s/he is who s/he is

we

each sparkle in our own being

yet can come together in a dream

we gaze outwards  towards the stars

we listen for the call of the universe from afar

what happened

what happened to the song

where did it all go wrong

the hands walk nimbly over the keys

while the thoughts inside bleed

surely love is greater than we imagine

surely love sees you are one in a billion

you drink in the sun

hoping for the one

hoping for one to sit here beside

hoping for one to come along for the ride

the scars have taken over

you are left alone in the clover

surely love can carry us beyond our differences

surely love can move beyond the bruises

isn’t that what love is…discovering the heart

isn’t that the grace of believing in a new start

are we so different…you and i

are we so different…that we can no longer fly

 

hope

when we experience the extreme

fading into an elusive dream

when all is lost and gone away

our inner conviction must hold our day

we know the other side of the coin

to this we must give our all and join

believe in our inner goodness

our connection to all in our fullness

no matter what we have done or what time we have lost

courage is to reach for the hope inside at no cost

the life-giving water…the energy of who we are

crystallizing our love from ages afar

speak to yourself as the love ripples through

be still…breathe…connect to the genuine you

love is

love is…

summersaults in the air

living with renewed care

happiness in your heart

getting a brand new start

refreshing as the daffodils in Spring

love gives your heart a gentle ring

regardless of the rain

love brings you home again
