Still Slipping Away
Ships leaving the
port
destined for
foreign waters,
fearful to tread
unknown territory.
Confidence
slipping away.
A lovely blossom
in full bloom,
heat scorching
the petals
lets go of the
stem.
Gradually
slipping away.

The Approach
As we approach
the spiritual
rehlm
my honey is
waiting for my
arrival.
Hand in hand
we will stroll
together
through the
garden of
flowers.
There we will
gather bloossoms
smell their
sweet scent
touch the soft
petals.

My Flower
Enter my sweet one
love becomes an open
door
my heart awaits you.
Once again I come
to drink of your sweet
nectar
flower of my heart.
A lovely red rose
holding fast to a
trellis
never letting go.
While my love remains
you are my flower of
love
passion of my life.

My Dream (Somewhere In Dreamland)
Last night
as I silently
slept.
Into my dreams
you genlty
crept.
Recalling
times when you
were there.
Life was breezy
without a care.
Loving you
from the time we
met
walking together
in the sunset.
Knowing your warm

Whispering Promises
whispering promises is easy to
do
many times they never come true
the one whispering promises
is not sincere
playing make-believe with your
ear
lots of voices hum a tune
whispering promises forgotten
soon
truth is absent from the start
a game of words played with a
heart
lying tongues have a cruel bite
whispered promises in the night.

Passage of Time
Grass remains lush,
and green
if properly watered
and fed
Without, fades turns
brown.
Petals dropp from
a flower,
slips softly to the
ground.
A breeze catches
a leaf
whirling around
casting it
away.
Tree limbs dry up
breaks off

Footprints In The Sand
We are but pilgrims
traveling on this
journey
Leaving positive
footprints, in the
sands of time
The tide sweeps in
washing them to sea
again
but we must main-

steady
through the floods
of time
When our journey has
ended

The Key
I feel I've been this way before,
Like stepping thru an open
door.
The door was shut, locked up
tight,
Darkness was there, instead
of light.
I looked and looked for the key,
Someone kept hiding it from
me.
Then one day, I turned around,
The key was lying on the
ground.
With key in hand, unlocked the
door,
Inside I started to explore.

Chakras Energy
..
Chakras are the energy
centers of which our
consciousness, or our
energy system is
composed.
These energy centers run
from the base of spine
to head or crown.
Chakras means wheel or
disc, each circular wheel
of light spins in our
energetic system.
Energy systems function
as a valve regulating
