Far Away

Death is a truth of life everyone dies

The hardest fact of life is that life goes on

Our hearts in sorrow never seem to heal

Whether our beloved abandon us or pass away

Life moves forward in a constant rhythm

It is very easy for friends to say

Your beloved is in a better place

Let go just move forward live your life

Our grief deep within stands us still

Heart and mind craving the presence

Of our beloved far away

Life is a journey in this world and beyond

We must weep for our loved ones passed away

And bid a fond farewell with love

To our beloved who journey far away

Love has no boundaries in time and space

For love is eternal and cannot pass away

Let us give our love and blessing safe journey

To our beloved who journey far away

Angel

Finding solace in peace and quiet away from burden and noise

I sit still as the candle flame my heart opens in service  

Colours of lovelight shining outward from my heart

Love fills my awareness spirit are present my senses awaken

A connection of love and unity a bond between two worlds present and eternal

Within my minds eye I see an angel serene in blue and white light

She comes close to me face to face within her deep beautiful eyes

A wisdom Of time and space universal mind and creation

My limited earthly perception cannot comprehend

The angel opens my awareness to universal mind

Connecting me with all who wish to speak in loves service

Giving the teachings of universal love and eternal life

Little Acts

Little acts of kindness are gifts from the heart

To friend’s and foes patience is our guide  

No matter the hurt and pain we give and receive 

Little acts of kindness will be our epitaph

A memorial of how we lived and loved

Our anger will not be remembered

By those who’s feelings we hurt 

Our little acts of kindness will live 

Within the hearts and mind’s

Of friends and foes for evermore

My Light

I honour my light my truth and guide

 My healer when regret overcomes me

Lessons to learn let me not forget my light

My light protects me against all who persecute me 

When all is dark within and around me 

Darkness cannot extinguish the light of my being

My light alive and eternal within and without 

Created by and born in infinite love

Love is the light the true nature of my existence

I honour spirit thankful for my purpose of service

I honour all who are aware within light

We are one in light and truth

Stop The World

Stop the world my beloved has died

I want the world to take time to mourn

Abandoned in this moment

As the new day marches on in time

I stand here in solitary sorrow

Physical death is final and unforgiving

I will never see you again in this life

Stop the world give me time

My beloved’s presence is no more

Just memories of once was

To keep my beloved alive in heart and mind

I wish to tell you of my beloved

The blessing he was to me and family

Stop the world and listen

My beloved has died

Living The Dream

All my illusions about life

Faded away once my heart opened

To the dream of life

Banishing all my illusions of old self

Awakening my hidden true self 

The genesis of life had begun

Acting out the illusion

Is the journey of the fool 

Living life as a lucid dream

True to true self in heart and mind 

Grateful for this new beginning

A blessing of the spirit

To live love and serve

Love Is My Teacher

When darkness befalls me

Love teaches me to be light

When I feel unloved

Love teaches me to love

When I feel persecuted

Love teaches me to live my truth

When I am hurt

Love teaches me to speak my truth

When I feel all is gone

Love teaches me to open my heart 

Love is my guide 

In this mortal life

Love teaches me

The truth of my eternal soul

Inspired by Spirit

I Am Me

Some people say I am lazy

Some people call me crazy

Some fear some hold me dear

After All I Am Me

He has cut his hair

He does not care

He would not dare

After All I Am Me

He has put on weight

He is always late

He has lost weight

After All I Am Me

He thinks to much

He drinks to much

After All I Am Me

I know who I am now

It is all in the past

Today you still cannot grasp

That I am becoming me

Look at yourselves

And as you delve

You will find the God

Who knows me

Who are you.
