Today, I am sharing a poem I wrote back in 2014. That poem is part of my e-book “Enjoy Life!” which is available on amazon.
So many wonders in this world – at times, we’re blessed with light
Experiencing precious moments which illuminate the night
In them, we find true happiness, and in the dear ones in our life
The love we get from all of them: Keep in your heart to thrive!
Life is not always roses
There’s never been a promise
Through challenges and hurdles
We are to grow on these
A dirty man with a strange smell
Or maybe one who does
Make sure that our streets are clean
Or that the landscape thrives?
People are not good or bad
They’re the experience they make
What they believe is true might look
To us like a big fake
The world outside my window
Is grey and pretty cold
Maybe it’s only winter
But somehow, that’s not all
Sometimes life takes unexpected turns
You think you know what to leave, what to do
Then it throws you a sign, invisible to others
And you know that your thoughts were anything but true
Yesterday I shared a few things about my life with you. So, for today’s poem, I thought it was fitting to share the lyrics of the song I am currently working on. I spare you unnecessary text repetitions. I hope you like it.

Journey leads through nights
Feeling like the end of days
Hope is almost gone
Feeling so much love in me
Seeing how the world could be
Absorbing all the good it holds
I know, not only I can see
There are a lot of things each day
A phrase, an image, a song
They trigger memories in me
Still vividly alive and strong
There are so many gifts surrounding us
We only have to open our eyes and see
Today, my Monday post will be a little different – fewer words yet a lot of food for thought I think.

The wind blows strong around my ears
The days have gotten colder
Daylight’s making itself scarce
More textiles now, around my shoulder
Sometimes I just smile
At the flight of a bee
At the crickets’ song
At the wind in the tree
When I let my thoughts fly free
Nothing holds me down
When I hold my limits high
Only my feet do touch the ground
I’m following the river
Beginning at its well
A tiny little trickle
Not knowing it will swell
Leaving seeds of kindness
With every step you take
Whenever you look back
You see the garden you create
Finding what I’m looking for
Finding what I need
Finding who I think I am
At least a germinal seed
When in your head
Is raging a hurricane
When every thought hurts
And drives you insane
Are you aware of how
precious you are today
In fact, you’ve always been
And you will always be
A little bit of light
Can make me see right through
A little bit of calm
Can help to change my view
Following routines
Checking on their means
Organizing
Supervising
Handling people’s spleens
The joy that a song can bring
When it reminds you of a time
That you enjoyed so much
You may get stuck along the way
What felt so clear has become grey
So long ago
It was all mine
Still in my heart
Hard to define
We all want our place
We all want to succeed
We want approval and acceptance
For who we are for what we need
Listen to the wind when it softly blows through the leaves,
See the flowers waving with its melody,
Feel the gentle touch on your skin…
Feel the peace.
What do we need when flowers whither
Because there is no light, and no water fills the river
The thought when results don’t meet expectations
The desire when you are longing for explanations
When people don’t cooperate
When you begin your life to contemplate
When plans are shattered or don’t work out
When you wish for things your wallet does not allow
I’m thankful for my feelings, from happiness to pain.
I’m thankful that none of it I experience is in vain.
I’m thankful for nature, for the ocean’s endless wide range.
I’m thankful for each person that gives my view a change.
It’s so easy to judge someone
From your restricted point of view
But there’s a hidden iceberg
Behind what you think is true
You gave yourself
You gave your all
How can you now feel
Like hitting a wall
Hello, little Snowflake
Thanks for visiting me
Although you fell to death
You touched my nose with glee
Is love only a word
A feeling we explore
Does it subside over the years
What once was all and more
It’s that time of year again
When hearts are a little more
Transparent and open
From and to their core
When I get insecure and lose
The ground beneath my feet
When the horizon turns from blue
To black, a scary wall to meet
When thoughts of love
Run through my heart
When my mind stops
Its thoughts-spinning art
My wish for you is that
Your wishes get fulfilled.
To make this coming true,
Your doubts have to be killed.
Today, I want to share an as touching as insightful thought, inspired by a poem Colin, of MeAndRay, shared with me a few weeks ago.

Escaping reality
For just a few days
Recharging my batteries
Clearing my mind’s maze
Forgiving can be hard
When things start to repeat
Intentions that things change
But seems, they never did
Love to look at my rose
Delicate petals unfold
Such delicate color
From a root that’s quite old
There are so many gifts surrounding us
We only have to open our eyes and see
There is so much beauty surrounding us
We only have to open our minds and feel
Only in silence, our minds are getting clear –
The clearer the mind, the smaller the fear.
Fulfillment
Have you ever seen a bee
Following its purpose
Have you ever seen a tree
Doubting its strength and growth
We knew each other for so long
For about forty years
How can it be with fifty-one
That you were meant to leave
I’m sitting in a meadow
Pondering about life
What really is important
What is the greatest prize
A simple song
My heart wakes up
A smile spreads out
Monologues stop
The glow that I see in your eyes
The burning fire in your heart
The smile that’s getting brighter when
You feel that spring’s about to start
As you can see from the title, I have decided to expand the range of topics for poems on Tuesdays.For the most part, the poems remain romantic, but I am often inspired by other things that I would like to share. Since I can’t find the time to post more often, I choose this option. Ultimately though, it’s always about love anyway, just not always the romantic kind.

The sound so sweet
The rhythm of my heart’s beat
A move that takes my breath away
That look that drove me completely crazy
Love is a peculiar thing
You don’t know how it acts
Maybe it comes rushing in
Or it slowly expands
I’m longing for a love
Presenting Yin and Yang
A give and take complete
Two hearts that make them one
I’m feeling like the morning sun
So new and full of joy
Welcoming life and all it brings
My heart’s a fireball, oh boy
Is there one way
or are there two?
Am I walking on my own
or am I doing it with you?
I lose myself
In the ocean of your eyes
I fall into a depth
But at the same time I rise
Only one embrace
Lasted a little too long
Energies merged
Memories and feelings return
Feels like coming home
A heart that’s holding so much love
Love that wants to be shared
But what to do when the vessel
To pour the love in is not there?
Unexpected
Unasked
But when it catches you
You cannot escape
What means a sunset
With its orange hues
What means the ocean
So deep and blue
Love was big and then dissolved
I’ve seen it fade in pain
All that was left was just my hope
That I’ll be seen again
A new year starts
What will it bring?
So many options
An endless string
I sit under the Christmas tree
Enchanted, mesmerized
A little package looks at me
I haven’t seen it, I’m surprised
Even though my body’s here
My heart is way ahead
It doesn’t matter what life says
It’s traveling instead
The sun goes down
The sky turns dark
But in my heart
A light does spark
A cold and grey November day
The sun decides do hide
I’m looking out the window while
My heart goes on a ride
I’d stretch each ray of sun
To lighten up your day
To make you feel embraced
And chase the cold away
The leaves are falling from the trees
So colorful and bright
Like sending a message that’s like
I will be back ‘though out of sight
Time may pass and time may last
Still, nothing stays the same
Life is progress through its change
But one thing will remain
When your love is the wind
It is blowing beneath my wings
Taking me higher
Whatever thought comes to my mind
Whatever word I say
They all form pictures in my heart
And take me far away
Feelings of a loving heart
Linger in my soul
Causing smiles
Causing tears
Causing longings
Causing fears
What means gratitude?
Awareness of the blessings
And the gift of life
In Love and Light
The waves of the sea
Are taking me on a ride
Far across the globe
Following the low tide
Feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling powerful and new
Feeling like I have grown wings
With each flap my whole heart swings
With every day
With every encounter
With every moment I think
With every moment I feel
When clouds are drifting through the sky
In orange, pink and blue
My heart feels like a rainbow
bridging miles from me to you
My mind goes on a ride
While my heart has already arrived
A journey of a thousand miles
Happens in an instant
The seas I cross
are the streams of your love
The air I breathe
Is the scent of your hair
The wind I feel
Are your fingers caressing my face
The raindrops
Are your kisses covering my cheeks
The warming sun
Is your embrace
When I think of you…
You are with me
A fireball, a shooting star
Tsunami of emotions
A crumbling wall, a clearing view
Deep feelings of devotion
Life goes on, the earth revolves
People come and go
Flowers die and bloom again
Years like rivers flow
It was like searching Easter eggs
I think I hid it well
Too long ago I cared for it
I cannot even tell
I think the most wonderful way
To be just who I am
Is how you do believe in me
And show me that I can
The harder the times the closer we are
If one needs a shoulder the other’s not far
The yearning in my heart
Is pushing me all-day
It keeps me hanging on
Since you’re so far away
When life slows down
There is more time for dreaming
A virus teaches
People to slow down and breathe
Nature gets a break
A virus changes all
Losing people, money, time
Daily exhaustion
Anticipation flows
My thoughts flying ahead
Can see what’s ‘bout to come
Love’s vibes vividly spread
Someone to hold you
Someone to lean on
Someone to talk to
Not feeling alone
I can’t imagine life without
Your presence anymore
I cannot even understand
How I could live before
Yin and Yang in love
A rock solid bond of souls
Divine connection
Happy Valentine’s Day, everybody!
In Love and Light
Light of Lights please shine
Your fire every day
Through and from our hearts
Repeat these three lines and see what happens. At first sight, it may appear you need to sit back and wait until something is done to you or someone needs to do something to you. But something different happens while reading or saying these words. You reflexively open up your heart which is all it needs to let your being fill your room.
God’s energy is nothing separated from us which we need to add. It is something that already exists inside of us. But we are so used to believe that all good things are coming from outside of us that we forget to look inside.
When you ask the light of lights to shine, YOU shine.
In opening your heart you only activate the flow.

In Love and Light
Diving into a deep blue sea
Amazed by such a treasure
The greatness of the world below
Is beyond any measure
Can it be that love has been
Around me all the time?
That what I searched for in my dreams
Has already been mine?
Can this be the reason that
Love at first sight is true?
Because the first time that we met
I knew that it is you
How long before I held your hand
And looked into your eyes
Have we decided that we’ll share
The greatest gift in life?
Although the search was long and hard
The dream that finally came true
Felt like the biggest miracle
That love can have for two
In Love and Light
I envy the sun
It visits you each day
From good morning to good night
It’s shining on your way
A song, saved in my heart
Opens a window to the past
Memories surrounding me
A blessing that still lasts
The year is coming to an end
My heart is still the same
It’s pounding strongly for my love
I’m blessed it’s not in vain
I may not see you but you’re here
I may not touch you but you’re near
Whatever word you say to me
Is collected in a bowl
With each word you add to it
It feeds my hungry soul
Although distance can be
A challenge for two hearts
There is always a way
To share love ‘though apart

There’s something in my chest
A bright and golden light
It keeps me going strong
Its beat’s pulsating life
It warms me when I’m cold
It wipes away my tears
And when I lose my path
Chases away my fears
It wasn’t always there
First, it was in your chest
You put it in my hand
And asked: Build it a nest!
I did my best and searched
To find the perfect place
A heart so full of love
A gift of divine grace
I hoped you wouldn’t mind
And put it to my heart
Now it is safe and sound
And we’re never apart
In Love and Light
