The Ethereal Symmetry of Just … Being

We must leave in no doubt the pure poetic power

found within a single flower emitting a sensual immediacy

of beauty most profound.

Yet even greater, and in addition to, is the resonating frequency of life

this one single flower transmits for all to experience and know,

if we would but allow ourselves to feel:

… the overlooked ethereal, eternal symmetry of just … being.

The Window of Our Soul

cropped-c6bba97b3c180214128b4c1f53a4e0d01.jpg

The Window of Our Soul

We gaze upon life’s mysteries

from the window of our soul,

 mesmerizing vagaries,

 transfiguring transparencies,

manipulation be our role?

~

 Are we the chosen players,

embedded in this life,

transplanted elementals

insubstantial consequentals,

must we flourish midst this strife?

~

Or in truth, are we exploring

while refining redefining

what is known, to what will be

 enlightened beings who can see,

– through the window of our soul!

Sleep Silent Angel

weeping silent angel

Sleep, Silent angel, dry all your tears.
Rest, be at peace with so many fears.
Please don’t cry for our sorrows,
And our maybe tomorrows

… if we don’t get it right,
With our planet so in plight.

Sleep silent angel, do not cry for our grief
Spoiled sea, air and land, 
fouled by a thief – yet in truth by our hand.

Do not cry for the loss and neglect and abuse,
Even as we do remain so obtuse.

Sleep silent angel, I beg don’t despair
We still are your people and though careless – do care.
Rest up your wings for tomorrow may bring

A renewal of hope with perchance a rebirth,
 of  loving and giving 

on our home  – Planet Earth!

And So It is Today

Today’s not yesterday and it’s also not tomorrow, even though it seems we spend part of each day dwelling on those past and potential future events.

Perhaps it may be wise to live more in the ‘right now’ of things where we can and do effect, potentially many, of the events shaping our everyday lives.

“When all is said and done

what today we have begun

is the single thing

that tomorrow brings

through yesterday’s recall

those memories from us all.”~Plh

Darkness in the Light of Day

In the still of every night

The stars may still be shining bright

But Darkness in the light of day

Makes hard to keep our fears away!

*

I do not know from when to where

Cannot conceive how we can’t care.

What we’ve become to darken ways

darkening all tomorrows days.

*

Where have gone the love and joy

for every single girl and boy.

STOP, stop no more I say

THIS, this is not the way.

Brothers, Sisters are we all

All together or we fall

and fall and fall

and fall and … fall!

Love – Empowers Us to Endure (and overcome)

​♡

Love does bless with abiding strength

so deep, so strong, so pure,

nothing overcomes unconditional love

as it gives us the power to endure.” ~Plh

Love is a very small word representing the biggest meaning in the world. There truly isn’t anything stronger or greater than love and when given free reign, it can conquer fear and hate.

Love large, it does a body (and mind and soul) good!” ~Plh

Take care of you and yours.

With sincere affection,

Penny

 

In A World Gone Mightily Mad

Be gentle, be kind, be forgiving

in a world gone mightily mad.

Be loving, be grateful, be happy

Not angry, disillusioned or sad.

*

As you slowly replace the material

and seek to find goodness within

you will see you have reached the ethereal,

unconditional love then begins.

*

Have a wonderful remaining week of days. May your heart be filled with love and your life be filled with the riches of family and friends (those you know and those you’ve yet to meet!) Always remember to take care of you,

With great affection,

~ Penny

 

The Reoccurring Echo of Misspoken Words

annl

Misspoken Echoes

“Echoes that are heard

after misspoken words

create resonance sweeping,

leading often to weeping

in sadness despaired

but words never cared.

.

And once they’ve been spoken

more words become token

of aftermath’s reflection,

and perhaps introspection

of poorly said words

that should’ve never been heard:

Misspoken words are like yesterday’s songs

always remembered for oh so ere long.”

~ Plh, 2016

.

Take care of you and if you’ve the time take care of a few others too.

With affection,

~ Penny
