The Start

One started on a path,

A January morning,

The start of the New Year,

The chill was in the air,

The path was challenging,

It was slippery,

One nearly well,

Pausing for composure,

Thinking one's mind,

Taking some time........

That is when one started to climb,

Determination and discipline,

Focus of the mind,

One foot followed the other,

The past was left behind,

To take a break,

Up on the mountain,

Appreciating how far one had climbed,

Country Walk

To Open A Heart

Opening the heart,

Expressing those emotions,

Letting the words fly free,

Vulnerability is easy to see,

But being  honest to oneself,

Is the rarest from of belief,

Or imprisoned you will be,

For when the mind engages with time,

A heart yearns behind the bars,

That vision of love breaking free,

For sending a message to the intended,

Then what will be will be,

For they may hold the key...... 

Dancing With Words

To dance around with words,

That fill one's head,

They may not mean anything,

Until they are read,

For sometimes when words are spoken,

They are taken as a token,

As the words that are seen,

Do funny things,

For they get absorbed when they are read,

Then end up going around in one's head,

Isn't that a wonderful thing?

So what did those words mean?

Did they really mean something?

Or are you missing something?

Auld Lang Syne

As the fire works lit the sky last night,

The bells had struck the hour of midnight,

Auld Lang Syne,

Filled the air,

A wish was made from me to you,

That all your dreams will come true,

For love,

Joy and happiness will come to you,

As you go forward on a path,

The path you choose that is right for you,

Happy New Year to you all,

I say,

Hopefully peace will find away,

Hard it is for the past cannot be changed,

But in the present a truce could be maintained,

This could lead to better days......

On A Christmas Eve

To sit and pause,

On a Christmas Eve,

Reminiscing on the Eve's,

That had passed before,

The family,

Friends and lover's,

That are no more,

Thank them all,

For being part of one's life,

The lessons,

Joy,

Happiness and love,

That they brought,

For underneath the Xmas tree there are no

presents to share,

But on Xmas Day only the Gift of a memory

that fills the air,

That makes the day so special to us all,

In an individual way......

Xmas Tree

Gracing The Day

The Sun graced the day,

It warmed the heart in a special way,

Brought a smile upon a face,

Very positive in so many way's,

For when happiness shows,

That person will glow,

It radiates from them to others,

As they go along their way,

For happiness is a present,

That special gift,

To be shared,

Without a care,

Where ever you are,

In the world.......

Tears To An Eye

How emotions bring tears to an eye,

Some of darkness,

Some of joy,

An expression of feelings shown by the windows

of the mind,

Where do these emotions stem from the heart or the mind?

A question still to be answered,

That will last to the end of time.....
