The normal

The normal I begin to feel
is when I'm with my friends
living life and moving on, I get some good relief
the little things in life to see, the twinkle in an eye
the laughter at the way we are, staring at the stars
our own normal sometimes we take for granite when life is good and fresh
my healing process continues as my normal sometimes rests
seeing beauty everywhere
it's simply quite amazing
with butterflies in the air......

The flower I am

The flower I am unfolds each day
as I peel back the layers as the sun finds it's way
As I search for my answers of how I became me
It becomes more clear, as the pedals unfray
   The bigger picture emerges as life moves ahead
   My heart opens up like the flowering rose
   With each pedal falling from a sensitive pose
 Our lives are mere raindrops on this thing we call earth
           figuring out ourselves from our time of birth

Grandmas Hug

I woke up this morning with my grandmas hug
fast asleep I was
I don't know if it was a dream or was it her?
It felt so real, as my heart lay still
It wrapped all around me, inside and out
Her arms wrapped around me without a doubt

She once came to me after she died
I asked all the questions of how and why
she answered all of them so many I asked
but the second I awoke they were gone in a flash

The feeling was left of all that we are
the positive goodness is never far
so as I live day by day
I feel the love and hugs of my Grandmas way

I belong to me

Where do I belong? I belong to me
Today I had an epiphany
I've summed up my life, it belongs to me
I never really knew that, how can that be?
I took it back and here it is
Now what it becomes and how it evolves
is up to the universe, but now I'm involved~~~

Washing Away

Washing away the holes in my soul
seeking to find the feeling of whole
as the water floats by,
with the sun in the sky
as the grasses grow high

My soul deepens greatly
for the truth knows why
as the holes in my soul
seem to fill with a glow
with the waters below~~~

Finally Spring

I've waited so long for spring to come
Seems like forever waiting for the sun

I'm free again of the hold of cold
The icy grip of the shadows of snow

My heart is free to love and grow
Flowers blooming, pedals a glow

I still don't know where I belong
But now I'm home I can sing my song~~~~

Red Rocks

Today I belong to me
the red rocks and the breeze
the sun, the air, the clear blue sky
the red rocks on high
the aloneness of me
traveling free
clearing space for me to be~~~~~
