My Best Friend #Poem
My best friend is always near
Through life’s trials, turns and tears,
Helping calm the stress and fears.
My best friend is always near.
Speech or silence matter not,
Understanding never stops.
Right time, right place, on the spot.
Speech or silence matter not.
Love I seek and love I find,
Tender heart and open mind
In discernment ever kind.
Love I seek and love I find.
Any hour of night or day,
This one friend is here to stay
With a lamp to light my way
Any hour of night or day.
Deepest feelings, wishes, cares-
None too big or small to share
What support! Beyond compare!
Deepest feelings, wishes, cares.
Whether filled with pain or peace,
Faithful friendship doesn’t cease.
Learn to give as I receive,
Whether filled with pain or peace.
Who’s this friend so good to me?
Gentle, patient, spirit free?
Seek and find yours. Ask. Receive!
My best friend, in short, is Me!
Keeper #Poem
I am your keeper
Inner temple reflecting
Your perfect image.

Lotus #Poem
Lotus grows in mud
Hope and light bloom from darkness
Let us do the same!
Choosing Now #Senryu #Poem
Right now I’m ok.
This is all I really have,
Choice of pain or peace.
The Easter Bunny Brought a Truck! #Poem
The Easter bunny brought a truck,
Though they had only half the stuff.
We ordered food on April 1,
A cruel joke! It could be worse (?)
13 days till delivery?
I hardly ate, and he blamed me.
But now, right now, it is enough.
The Easter bunny brought a truck!
After a Bad Day #Prayer #Poem
Today has been a letdown,
But it’s over! Thank you, Lord!
I pray tomorrow’s better
And my patience will endure.
I pray that when the morning sunlight
Kisses grass and trees,
It sends your peace and hope and love
Shining down on me!
And when tomorrow’s ended
As the gentle night begins,
I pray, whatever happens,
Help me turn to you within!
Amen.
When We Rise #Poem
When we rise
Do we realize?
Or is it just a new normal?
When we become enlightened,
Does the Light dawn?
Or is it simply another day?
When our knowledge yields to Truth,
Do we really know?
Or do we take it for granted?
When belief turns to awareness,
Do we awaken?
Or are we intimidated by its power?
O let us awaken!
Let us know beyond thought!
And let the Light dawn
As we realize
When we rise!
