Snowflakes

I never tire of snowflakes,
they're are little works of art,
falling from the heavens they're
holding memories of the heart.

I see in each one a different view,
like a chapter in a story or a verse
in a song, the magical crystals,
bring the mystery of love along.

Where there is love, 

there is happiness. 

~

I have had an array of emotions... in the end love rules. 

~

The tiny little finch,
amazingly strong,
stays for the winter
and sings her song.

Reminders of spring,
when flowers will bloom
and the sun will shine and
the sky will be so blue.
~



If we are but a grain of sand from stars we will never see, our physical will fade away and our love will span eternity. This love is mighty special, enduring like a kiss upon my lips , holds me close in darkness and reminds me what others will miss. It is in a form of energy, no stopping it you see, for it can soar the heavens and embrace you in a dream.
~

I never imagined my heart could feel this way, that love would embrace my soul and carry it away.
I won't battle the reality of you, for you are in my heart from the day my sky took on a different hue. 

I have seen it in the open sky and watched it look on back, the angels were singing, the dreams were based on fact. Music only for you and I, so we may continue the  where only lovers waltz on by. 

I never imagined my heart could feel this way, that love would embrace my soul and carry it away. 
I won't battle the reality of you, for you are in my heart from the day my sky took on a different hue. 



I almost forgot the steps to dance upon the clouds and that heartache will keep you anchored to the ground. I thought of the all the joy you brought to me and I spun around in circles a a smile surfaced as I reviewed my dreams.

Snowflakes, Snowflakes

Snowflake, snowflake, falling down,
the winter white blankets the ground, 
daydreams of you and I as I lay here 
gazing out at the blue of the sky.

~ 
Snowflake,Snowflake falling down, 
 the winter white blankets the ground. 
The day as cold as it can be and yet the 
love from your heart warms me.

 ~ 

Snowflake, snowflake, falling down, 
the winter white blankets the ground. 
Thoughts that bring you close to me,
 bridge our hearts for all eternity.

Rainbow Snowflakes...These ones are Red

As I watch the snow fall and look at the beautiful crystals layering upon the window pane my mind drifted and I thought of the old saying " no two snowflakes are alike." That would hold true for people and experiences as I believe no two are alike. Though it is true that we all have similarities in experience and in our thoughts and actions, the differences part the ways. Of course, I right away thought of soul mates. Exactly what makes a soul mate. Similarities were a part of it, the willingness to understand , comprehend , explore and the ability to share and the common ground in which emotions cross. But there is also a comfort zone and the comfort zone is knowing that we are not judged for standing and bearing our all to the world.

I was saddened earlier in the day when I thought that it was out of my control and to a degree somethings appear to be out of our control. But than it occurred to me that every situation whether positive or negative demands a choice be made. Well that seems awfully simple. We can alter any situation by simply choosing to do so. I thought hmmm... that doesn't seem so difficult and yet and I laughed as I out loud said a saying that I had heard many times " You can either be a part of the solution or a part of the problem." That just seems to darn easy and yet there was truth in the words spoken. Everything we do has a consequence , whether we choose to go with the flow or stand our ground and dare to be different. For all the tears that flooded from my eyes this morning , they seemed so dry and without emotion this evening. It had that feel of cleansing, yell a little, cry a little and get up and dust yourself off and move on. Dwelling on what you can' t do is wasted energy so I put that energy into what I know. Worked on products, made dinner and stood my ground. Today is like a snowflake, it will be nothing like yesterday and nothing at all like tomorrow. How we look at the reflections of the prisms of a crystal depends on where we stand. I saw the light beaming through and shining off the window. From this perspective I could separate myself from my surroundings. Hey! it was Popeye that said it best " I yam what I yam and that's all that I yam." The wisdom behind cartoons, go figure. I stood there for a moment , I thought of what makes me different and what makes me the same. I made decisions that put me where I am and I will make decisions that will take me to tomorrow.  I no longer felt the exhaustion that came with a long winter, I felt renewed. That one person understood, cared and was willing to make a difference along side me. It was as if I was given a strength like some super hero power which made infallible. 

There were many people instrumental in the long journey and I spent a moment or two reviewing those times. I wondered exactly what they meant and why, in general why do we have people who cross our paths? Of course some seem more positive than others and others  had quite the negative spin to them, so much that I could feel it to this day like a prick of a needle as it penetrates the skin.  I didn't want to think that these experiences changed me or somehow redirected my path. But in essence they did somehow alter the journey or at least add to the character that is constantly forming. Even the most negative of situation taught me caution and the most positive taught me the truth of love. 

I tucked a little lavender into

the cleavage of my breast , 

to calm my soul and allow

my troubled heart to rest. 

Relaxing by the light of 

my computer screen, my

knees bent and my head 

upon the pillow, while I

became lost in memory. 

I set about daydreaming

and wishing you were here,

wondering what you are doing

and remembering the time we 

shared.

My heart felt the warming 

from the infusion of love 

and I felt my soul escaping

unto the clouds above. 

The images delightful, 

like magic to the soul,

Envisioning your arms

opened with an invitation

to hold. 

I knew from the beginning

and I still know it now, 

that you are my love 

no matter the long miles.

Tonight I'll close my eyes

and it will be like no 

night before, for tonight,

I am in your arms forevermore. 

My heart sings the words,

your soul writes for me

and it is inevitable that 

we will surface from the
dreams.

Love has spoken and

I'll not deny that every

passing minute is like

fireworks in the sky. 

The truth is there for 

us to see and I knew

it from that moment

you first said hello to
 me. 

Red for love....

Snowflakes

I went outside to feed the ducks and watch as the snowflakes placed a new coating over the hills. The brightness of the white blanket was almost as good as the spring sun in snapping me out of my winter humdrum feeling to hibernate. I smiled as I reached out to catch a large flake of snow and felt it melt my upon hand. Like an infusion to the soul I felt renewed and rejoiced in another days celebration.
Usually  being the optimist I felt pessimistic at best when an acquaintance  was looking for a little sympathy and I brushed it of as Que sa ra , sa ra and she bit back in anger. She said her husbands brain and heart wasn't working together and I replied with " whose brain and heart is on working on the same page?" She wasn't amused in the least. I felt bad and offered my prayers for her family.
This time of year and the drag  out of feeling of winter has brought about many challenges and  I am reminded that we all need to reach within to find the courage to see the good and offer the good and embrace each day for the beauty that it is. I felt like for awhile that I was falling short of looking through other peoples eyes and allowing a bitterness to close. Like taking off an apron and shaking off the baking flour I shook those thoughts aside. How else are we to move on if we don't rid ourselves of the powerful restraints that negativity can will upon a person.
Warm in the house I looked out he window as the snow continued to fall. I consciously grasped at the carefree memories that revealed a child with arms wide spinning in the snow. Those emotions and thoughts of a child who wanted to change the world flowed like a river in its rage. I couldn't allow bitterness to surface and rule my internal being. I laughed "whose heart and brain are on the same page?"  Might sound cruel but there is always a conflict unless you give power to one or the other. My mind prefers to run to hide, to disconnect and my heart wants to love and do what is right and my soul confuses it all as it wants to soar to heights unimaginable.
As I once more look ahead I rejoiced, whether one day or a thousand I will make each day, hour and minute the celebration it deserves to be. Take a look at a kite on a windy march day and see the length of the tail and how high it soars. Each person and experience is the notch on the tail, if you take them off the pieces of the tail lose their baring and plummet, never to reach its ultimate goal of soaring high within the clouds.
I closed my eyes and I filed the chapters of my life accordingly. I placed them to rest and stepped forward to except that tomorrow will bring new experiences worthy of a memory.

One kiss gentle on your lips,
one life embraces for all time,
one soul as a reminder that
dreams are the ultimate fine.

One love that last forever,
one song of the heart sings,
one moment in your arms
is the beauty of memory.

Dreaming, Dreaming of you.....

Unexpected Love

Enthralled in the moment, as snowflakes gingerly fall
and the sun shining, finds a way through it all.

Past the thicket and the woodlands, the trail
twist and winds and soon enough the
path has us both entwined.

The water lay in silence, barely does it
move, crystal in nature, it seems
so awfully smooth.

Peering into the reflection, on the
glaze of diamond ice, a view of
unexpected love, stands the
image of you and I.

Lost

I was lost, till that day you found me ,
a kiss of life and joy all around me.

Walking like clouds beneath us,
covered with a sprinkle of love
dust..

Dreams are never the same,
quick, snap and save that frame.

I was lost till that day you found me,
a kiss of life and joy all around me.

Visions of happiness, traveling
beyond the abyss.

My heart heard the bells chime,
love songs all the time.

I was lost, till that day you found me,
a kiss of life and joy all around me.

~~~

I woke to find your hands on my shoulder,
my straps falling gently to the floor.
Wrapped up in the morning moment,
my heart was begging for more.

A visual like no other, the magic of love
brought you here.
I could feel the comfort of your arms and trace
the smiles from the heavens past the tears.

Dancing hearts lovingly embrace, as the sunlight
reappears, never let go of the feeling, the love
that conquers all of fear.

Let the light live through you and turn
on in the outer hemisphere, the place where
you and I can meet, beyond the dreams
of the commoners ear.

A Winter Stroll

I was strolling, as the sun said its goodbye
and the moon took its place in the sky ,
feeling blue, without you.

Then suddenly there’s laughter and my
heart chased after, to find that you
were waiting for me, and this
was not just another dream.

With minutes behind me, the sun now
shining, as you melted every flake of
snow, with that love of yours ,
that warmly glows, over me.

I want you, to want me, to hold me
and kiss the breath of day.

I’m glad I am in your arms,
like setting off a love alarm, with you.

~~~

We don't have to paint the sky, the rainbows are in your eyes,
the dreams and magic are ours.

We don't have to dance alone, the clouds a loves zone and you
and I waltz there.

We don't have to pick a song, we knew the words all along and
our hearts now sing it.

We don't have to dream, our love reality and we can't deny it.

We don't have to shed a tear, I know how much you care....


Just look tonight, those stars shine bright
and all the world will be fine, as I have
you by my side.

~~

Rose

Meadows and mountains, sunshine and moonbeams,
in the world of love, they’re the foundation of dreams.

Close your eyes and you will see, on this journey,
you’ve been right next to me.

I’m there when you wake up, to kiss you, my sweet
and when night falls, I’ll be the first in your dreams.

Unlike the petals of the ordinary rose, this bloom
more desirable, as each day it grows.



Everyday of the Year


Your my spring, my summer and fall,
your my love, when winter comes to call.



Mystical nymph in a winter storm.
dancing and loving, our world transformed



Love dipped snowflakes make a play,
flurry filled kisses blow your way.

Snowflakes, Snowflakes

Snowflakes, Snowflakes

Snowflakes, snowflakes fallen down,
rainbow of colors, blanket the ground.
Purple, red, yellow and blue, a little
pink and some green came through.

Happiness, sadness and a little
desire, challenged a mountain,
set a heart on fire.

Yesterday fades away, as tomorrow
eagerly awaits. Here and now I
bow to thee, trust, faith
and hope set free.

Joy mingling with the winter
breeze, send my Love to thee.
Over the hills, my kisses go,
to the one, who I love so.

Snowflakes, snowflakes, fallen
down, rainbow of colors can
be found. Hunger, thirst,
quickly devour, the magic
of the hour.

Tender Touch

Sweet tender touch, from the start,

I felt it in my heart, like a classic work of art.

~

I giggled and you laughed,you had to know, that

I was all a glow, with you..

~

The hills began to sing and the sun to shine,

I was dancing all the time, you were always

on my mind.

~

This wasn't any silly fantasy, nor was I in a dream,

it was the Lords greatest scheme.

~

Date was set and you appeared, magically right here,

the answer to my prayer.

~

Sweet tender touch, from the start ,

I felt it in my heart, like a classic work of art.

~

Sweet tender touch, from the start,

I felt in in my heart, like a ....

~~~

La La La

La la la, said the breeze, la la la, I’m on my knees,
requesting you here, it’s just my morning prayer.

La la la, sang the bird, la la la, the music heard,
wishing you were here, so that we could share.

La la la, to the dance, la la la, I’m in a trance,
as I fall in love, under the stars above.

La la la, is the beat, la la la, of my heart,
as we compose, our love grows.

~~~

With winter finally making its rounds, the winds brushed up against the hills of the hollow, dusting the landscape with a sparkling, glow of white snow. Here I am in the middle of the season, I stopped, I glanced back, a now quick glimpse of the yesterdays, compounded like a book in review. I felt the absorption of life through the magic of time. I explored the toying of my emotional desires, as I faced the reality of what is. This incredible journey filled with indescribable cravings, some obtainable and others only a sweet tease to the heart through the minds eye.
The tips of the trees silhouetted against the early evening sky, I braced myself for the dance with three brass horses, as the memories, slipped through their grasp exuding that of liquid gold.
Laughter deeply seeded surfaced, with bellowing passion. My eyes refocusing, adjusted quickly to the outline high above the clouds, my soul, your soul and the mystical bond that brought them together.
