WRITTEN FOR CPC ~ WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY ~ LOST SOULS' "WILD SIDE"    

WITH A HOOT

 The sleepless owl

With great big eyes ~

Wide open through

The night ~

Sits on a branch

So quietly ~

Away and out of sight.

While daytime creatures

Catch their "Zzzzz's" ~

Owls' left alone

Herself to please ~

All wise and stately

On her perch ~

Her eyes all seeing

As they search ~

For sign of anyone

Or thing ~

That might disturb

Or trouble bring ~

Into her deep

Nocturnal bliss ~

The thought of

Such a travesty ~

Evokes from her

A warning hiss…

Faint rustle in

The leafy trees ~

Makes feathery ears

Stand straight up tall ~

Who goes there now

she hollers?

As a tiny dry twig

Gently falls ~

She wants her peace ~

God damn it ~

So sleep you creatures ~

One and all ~

Till daylight once

More comes  a'calling ~

Then Lady owl

Give one last hoot ~

As ~

Fast asleep ~

she's falling.

WRITTEN FOR LWHPII ~ KOFFEE KLUTCH WITH KAT & ROSES ~WINDMILLS OF YOUR MIND

MEMORY OF PUREST LOVE

 

Howling winds I hear

Within my head ~

Cannot hear words

That are being said ~

Windmills turning

And churning away

The list of things I must do ~

And remember…TODAY!

 

Yesterdays' list

Fragmented in pieces ~

Blown by the wind

That never ceases ~

Scattered to

Destinations unknown ~

What WAS on that list?

I silently groan?

Tomorrows' list is

Already forming ~

Todays' list will

Soon be gone ~

The windmill it keeps

On turning ~

Doesn’t care what has ~

Or hasn't been done.

 

A never ending spiral

That keeps turning

Things around ~

And hiding them in

Places ~

Where they never

Will be found ~

Allowing such important

Things to fall

Right through the cracks ~

Important facts and

Dates ~

Of which I can’t keep

Track.

So I guess I must resent ~

Those windmills in my mind ~

I guess I should be bothered that ~

they seem unfeeling~ quite unkind?

But when I least expect it ~

Those windmills do me proud ~

Some long lost memory

Resurrected ~

That pushes through the crowd ~

Of all those "so important" ~

Yet so unimportant ~

Afterall…

Dates and things I

Desperately hold onto ~

That need not really

be recalled.

 

I sit and relish what has come

So silently to knock ~

A memory from long ago ~

That's turning back the clock ~

Two little girls (my daughters) ~

at play in a wading pool ~

A sunny summers' day ~

Grass sparkling like jewels.

 

The windmill has returned

To me ~

This image in my mind ~

Along with many others ~

From day to day ~ I find ~

And so I will not protest ~

The lapses day to day ~

I will not whine or worry ~

Or care what people say ~

But thank the Lord for

Windmills so much wiser far

Than I ~

Bringing me back memories ~

So sweet ~ they make

Me cry ~

With joyful soul and

Happy heart ~

I'll face the wind that

Howls ~

I'll wear my sweetest smile ~

Deny my sullen scowl ~

And let the lists blow

Far and wide and land

Where 'ere  they may ~

I was given back a memory

of purest love today.

 

So just between

me and my windmills ~

Blowing in my mind

Both night and day ~

I am content with the job

You are doing ~

And I have nothing

More

To

Say!

MY DREAM

I dreamed a little dream ~

It really was quite small ~

In fact ~ amongst the dreamers ~

It wasn't "big" at all ~

Perhaps better to call it ~

"a wish" and not a dream ~

though wishes can ~

quite often ~

be seen as dreams (it seems)…

 

I wished for happiness and health ~

Though I could really use ~ some wealth ~

I made those wishes for myself ~

Then added others too ~

I wished for all those things ~

Not just for me ~ Also for you ~

"YOU" my friends and family ~

"YOU" those that are in dire need ~

"YOU" could mean just anyone ~

Yes ~ "YOU" are ~ Anyone indeed.

 

I guess it really IS a dream ~

That I am wishing to come true ~

I dream a dream of better things ~

Perhaps some laughs ~ a smile or two ~

Some joy and peace ~ Financial strength?

But down and out ~ I know ~ We  ain't ~

We have each other ~ We have love ~

The hand of friendship we extend ~

Our dreams we hold ~ Both big and small ~

Hope burns in us  ~ And will not end!

 

So maybe I will take my wish ~

And nurture it with faith ~

And as it grows ~ Call it a dream ~

One that I will not forsake ~

The quest for happiness and health ~

A tiny smattering of wealth ~

The love of family and friends ~

Joy in my heart this dream ignites ~

As out to "YOU" ~ My dream ~ I send.

WRITTEN FOR CPC ~ WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY WIT LADY SEDA & SOLIER BLUE ~

SPIRITUALITY

DIFFERENT MINISTRIES

 

Though it was written

Long ago ~

Believe I do ~

The Holy Word ~

Though some have

Mocked the very same ~

And claimed those words

To be absurd ~

A timeless book

The Bible ~

Many proclaim

It that to be ~

While some will  

Praise The Torah ~

Some the Koran  ~

And some ~

other ministries.

 

I guess it really

doesn't matter ~

What teachings

we hold to be true ~

But this I know

For certain ~

Believe we must

Both me and you ~

In someone ~ or ~

in something

that is larger ~

Grander far

Than we ~

For too think that

"we" are all there is

~ is ~

at the very least ~

highly…unlikely.

 

So I will read my

Holy Bible ~

Christian I am ~

So that ~ is what I do ~

But when I say my

Prayers at night ~

I'll pray for blessings

Both  ~ for me AND you ~

For no man is an island

And none of us

Can "stand" alone ~

It matters not what

race our face ~

or what place we call

our "churchly" home ~

Only that we all are

Human beings ~

Searching for truths

As yet untold ~

All looking for something

In which to believe ~

As we watch

the uncertain future ~

Unfold.

WRITTEN FOR KOFFEEE KLUTCH WITH ROSES ~ LWHPII ~ MONDAY

WHAT IS MINE

 

Heart!!!

Why oh why

Do you betray me so???

You and I

We are needy ~ but ~

No one must know!

We must hide

Our affliction ~

Keep secret our flaw ~

My lips I have sealed ~

Still you flap your "jaw" ~

Always pining for someone

That's not right for you ~

Holding a torch for them ~

And getting burned too~

Worshipping those 

Who don’t know you

Exist ~

Heart you must stop!

You must cease and desist ~

I simply won’t join any further

in your sad self-deceit ~

I won’t stand by and

Let you be trampled

By feet ~

Feet that are not fit

To stand in your shoes ~

Feet that are faulty

And yet they're the feet

That you choose?

I will be the hero ~

I'll step in one more time ~

You are ~

MY heart after all …

And I must protect…

What is mine.

WRITTEN (RATHER LATE DUE TO AN ANNOYING TOOTH THAT HAD TO COME OUT) FOR CPC ~ MONDAY MAGIC WITH JT & MARY ~ DESERT

HEAT

 

The bluest sky

No clouds at all ~

The cacti stood

Near 10 feet tall ~

Hushed breezes blew

The dry hot air ~

No sign of water

Anywhere.

 

We walked along

The dusty paths ~

Saw plants and

Butterflies ~

A cat ~

Some birds and

Then an eagles'

Cry ~

Looked up to see ~

Sun burned my eyes.

 

Saw blossoms many

Different hues ~

Cacti assortment

Much too choose ~

Some lizards and

Some tiny bugs ~

They must be thirsty

Too ~ I shrugged.

 

A laziness seems to

Prevail ~

When hot sun burns

From head to tail ~

And blisters skin

And dries out shells

And bakes the dirt

And dries up wells ~

But when the night

Time rolls around ~

The air is filled with

Different sounds ~

A hooting owl ~

Soft scurrying feet ~

Relieved the moon

Sends out no heat ~

But bathes the brush

In silvery light ~

Gives half blinded eyes

The needed sight ~

To hunt and forage ~

Roam and play ~

With energy lacking

In heat-filled day ~

The sounds and smells

Fill up the air ~

Sweet spicy smells

Float here and there ~

While we ~

The human 2-legged

Kind ~

A sturdy rock

To sit on find ~

And deeply drink in

cool night air ~

Our eyes bewitched

By silvery stare ~

Of moonlit magic

As it plays ~

Upon desert landscape

in so many ways ~

Creating a canvas

So sublime ~

We're blessed

To partake ~

Of this desert

Divine.

WRITTEN FOR HARMONY PUB ~

Sunny SUNDAY LWHPII

WAVES OF EMOTION

 Castles and dreams

Of mystical knights ~

And palaces fit for kings ~

Towers that spiral

high in the air ~

Along with so many other

magical night-time things ~

But in the day ~

Crumbling sand ~

Mixes with water

In "fairyland" ~

Reduces to grains

Majestic spires ~

Washes away

So many ~

Hopes ~ dreams ~

And desires ~

Leaving behind

Reality and such ~

Tears mix with

Wet sand ~

Coarse to the

Touch ~

Magical Kingdom

No longer so tall ~

Waves of emotion come

And wash away all.
