cardinal, hummingbird, robin


scarlet cardinal
balancing delicately
atop a thin branch

tiny hummingbird
flowers fresh with scent and dew
sweet taste of nectar

colorful robin
bellowing a symphony
joyful ode to life.

May your love give us love.

May your strength give us strength.
May your faith give us faith.
May your hope give us hope.
May your love give us love.

love


Buddha said that we could look the whole world over and never find anyone more deserving of love than ourselves. What a great thought. :^) <3

the same song


sweetly the robin sings
whilst the crickets and frogs echo

the wind blows heartily
tossing the butterfly as it flutters
it directs the seas 
and moves the flock

a child runs happily
across the meadow 
soaked of brilliant flowers
stretching to reach the warmth of the sun

it’s a familiar melody
as it’s the same song

a thank you 
for the gift of life.

peace


You are all geniuses, and you are all beautiful. You don't need anyone to tell you who you are. You are what you are. Get out there and get peace, think peace, live peace, and breathe peace, and you'll get it as soon as you like. ~ John Lennon

peace and love

I am poor and naked, but I am the chief of a nation. We do not want riches but we do want to train our children right. Riches would do us no good. We could not take them with us to the other world. We do not want riches. We want peace and love. ~ Red Cloud (Makhipiya-luta) Sioux Chief

it is


it is what sparks the heartbeat 
of the unborn child

it is how the tiny watermelon seed
becomes the gigantic fruit

it is how the bee
finds the flower to bond with

it is why the sky is blue, the grass is green
and why colorful rainbows can be seen

it is why the universe exists
and why life shall always be

it is love.

to and fro


the wind blew
the trees swayed
to and fro

a loved one died
a child is born
to and fro

the day retreats
the night takes hold
to and fro

the seasons change
the earth renews
to and fro

the sun gave warmth
the rain had fallen
the soil gave way
a seed had sprouted
to and fro.

Time


Time is not real.
This moment is what it is.
It always was, always is, and always will Be.

One day at a time.


One day at a time – this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone: and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering. ~ Ida Scott Taylor
