Love

Love comes in many forms
Be it love for the sun, the moon and stars
Some love their cars

We are blessed with unconditional love from The great I AM
who also creates spectacular sunsets.
And for some their beloved pets

Many of us love the arts, be it painting, writing, music, song and dance
We come here to enjoy them all, whilst seeking the one that will fulfil our desire for companionship, fun and true romance

May you all be blessed enough to be loved and to love in return

PEACE

In a seemingly crazy world ,may we not necessarily forget but strive to overcome our yesteryears
Move on in unity and peace with love for our fellow human beings instead of being crippled by hatred and fear
On this our borrowed land that’s been stained by innocent shed blood and drenched from grieving wept tears
Move forward together,irrespective of when or where one came, what was brought or sought

Some may abuse generiousity but in a world of such inequality,injustice, how can we just look the other way,bury our heads in the sand
For who does it all really belong to anyway, why not offer a helping hand ?
Who gave a Robin his song to be sung and who can say where he was born is where he shall only belong ?
And, whos place is it to declare, to shout, or say who is really right, or who is wrong ?
Who shall throw the first stone, if the truth be known who is right to cast any blame ?
Who really deserves to be clothed in robes made from shame ?

We’ve had too many wars where the heavy burden of evil came to rest upon the shoulders of young soldiers
Who believed and declared that peace was the food they fought for, I wonder how it tasted
when so many gifted lives around them were cut down in their prime so tragically wasted ?

Where did the melting pot go, does anyone know ?
Does it, or should it matter who is right or wrong ?
Or, from which religious organization you may, or may not belong
Who said we must humiliate,segregate, isolate, kill, destroy
someone else’s prescious, beloved girl or boy.

We cannot change the past only try to change the future,have hope and a purpose for which to aim
So let us all rise up against such evil, stop playing this destructive blaming, shaming game.
Stand up and be counted, claim victory, wear a crown of great pride and dignity again
Let’s not waste time trying to propagate,exterminate but instead try protect the children of the future, try embrace
And do so now, today, before all of tommorows promises expire, vanish, gone without a trace !

Laughter & Joy

Oh, how I love to laugh out loud
Not at the expense of others but maybe
at...myself...well...thats...ok

I often enjoy having a little giggle,
when reflecting on funny times that may have
long gone by
and I find myself laughing until I cry.

It feels so good to laugh out loud,
And, also great to spread some joy so
here’s hoping that you catch this happy bug,
that you encourage it and long may it stay
Joy dispelling any gloom that you feel to
blow any dark clouds far away

In Awe

I am in awe of and feel blessed by the nature that surrounds me here...on retreat with no ticking clock, no timetable
Tucked nicely away from the hustle and bustle watching the trees gently sway whilst listening to their leaves rustle
The melodic sound of birdsong fills the air and their delightful acrobatic display seduces me
Refreshing rain falls and that awakens my very presence as my senses are stimulated and pleasant thoughts are provoked
I feel insignificant yet protected in the woods around the tall strong trees and their foliage so dense
Each year, every season come rain or shine, during both good times or sad I am drawn to return and just be....
I choose to be fully present here...soaking in the atmosphere of each unique minute, hour, day....i sit, i walk, i lay in sweet surrender feeling weightlessly at peace
Nestled amongst the array of spectacular colours, the scent of sweet perfume the diversity of the clouds in the sky, the sun, the stars the moon
The sound of silence envelops me ,the stillness calms my mind
The gentle breeze whispering in my ears. caressing my skin reminding me it’s real as it feels so surreal
I am here it is not just a dream....it is a free gift and one i shall always treasure
Just as the stream fluctuates, the trees bend are flexible ...i surrender ...i choose to go with the flow
I rest in complete awe of this seemingly mystical splendour as it gently blesses me, restoring my mind body and soul
And I mindfully give thanks to our creator, as i go.

Love Is

Love
is
Much more
than a warm cosy feeling
More than physical attraction,
or
A chemical reaction
that without rhyme or reason
can strike fast, and hit hard.

Love
is
Perfect imperfection,
unconditional affection.

Love
is
Peace in your mind and spirit
It is where ones heart and soul
contently reside
Without the need or desire
to search for more or
to roam

Love
Means to never feel alone

Love
Is a gift to cherish

Love
to me is
home

How Long Will I Love You

How long will I love you?
As long as stars are above you
And longer if I can

How long will I need you?
As long as the seasons need to
Follow their plan

How long will I be with you?
As long as the sea is bound to
Wash upon the sand

How long will I want you?
As long as you want me to
And longer by far

How long will I hold you?
As long as your father told you
As long as you can


How long will I give to you?
As long as I live through you
However long you say.

How long will I love you?

A Smile

It can come very easy to smile when all is well
But harder to do and more thoughtful,when one has a sad tale they could tell.

To share yours with another, no matter, what is what.
Can brighten up their day and to them mean such a lot
To the stranger that passes who may be bereft, live alone.
To the one who may be feeling lonely, forgotten or burdened but doesn’t want to speak, to share or to moan.

A little smile that says hello
Can warm anothers heart, speak volumes in the silence
Say I care, and mean more to them than you may ever know.

What better time can there be but now to show we care..and a little smile can be how

My Dad

My Daddy took me dancing,my feet on top of his
I was so small, he stood real tall
My eyes looked up in awe,he blew me down a kiss

My Daddy took me walking and we stopped
by the blossom tree.
We heard the birds,we saw a Owl
He said that it winked at me !

My Dad
He took me waltzing amongst a happy crowd
He held my hand, his head held high we smiled
And as he led me round, both he and I felt proud.

My Dad
He was my hero, i loved to hear him sing
He passed away so suddenly and i
was sure my life would end
My Dad, my forever friend.......he was my King

My

My eyes are windows that reflect and have a language of their own
My spirit has been broken, restored, moulded and has grown

My mind transports me back to reminisce, to contemplate what could have been
My imagination catapults me forward to wonderful places that i haven’t yet seen

My soul has great depth and my heart has plenty of room
To enable me carry and sustain true love
Should it blossom, may it bloom

Beyond The Shore

I look out across the Ocean as far as my eyes can see
And i wonder if you are out there..
THE ONE i’m yet to meet, patiently waiting thinking of me.

As i leisurely stroll in knee deep refreshing water with the suns warmth caressing my back,
I begin to count my blessings, yet i am still very mindful of that prescious love i lack

I watch couples walk by hand in hand.
I long to do the same, and i wish that i knew your name
Then i could playfully write it alongside mine in the sand.

I guess that only time will tell, reveal,
who is who and what is meant to be .
Who and what destiny has in store for me.

As i begin to embrace this new chapter in my life,so ready to move on from the past
I hope that the love of my life is out there being prepared
And trust that the best really has been saved till last !

Cupid

Cupid draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart for me, for me
Cupid please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me
Now I don't mean to bother you but I'm in distress
There's danger of me losing all of my happiness
For I love a girl who doesn't know I exist
And this you can fix
So, cupid draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart for me
Nobody but me
Cupid please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me
Now, cupid if your arrow make a love storm for me
I promise I will lover her until eternity
I know between the two of us her heart we can steal
Help me if you will
So, cupid draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart for me
Nobody but me
Cupid please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me
Now, cupid, don't you hear me
Calling you, I need ya
Cupid help me, I need ya
Cupid, don't fail me
