“Ignorance is bliss!”
“What they don’t know, can’t hurt them!”
Lies are illusions.
We lie to reduce conflict,
But only reduce ourselves…

Download “The Secret in the Stone” Meditation with Double Strung Harp Mp3
Approximate length: 5 minutes
Come! Enter the realm of mystery,
Where Truth is revealed to those who seek,
Perhaps not with eyes, but through sensing and feel;
It’s the wisdom to know your important and real.
Where you’ll surely be given that for which you ask
Toward fulfilling your purpose and passing life’s tasks.
Take a look at the stone, in this place, in your mind,
And uncover the message your Spirit can find.
Do not worry or fret; it is written for you!
There’s no wrong way to hear it, whatever you do.
You might read it or sense it or feel in your heart
Gentle words of the Spirit in music or art.
It may come in the quiet, in dreams, or in sound.
But however, whenever, your message is found!
You will feel when you’ve got it, your life’s cornerstone.
It will help guide your path, knowing you’re not alone.
For the stone that you see here is only a sign
Of the worlds you can enter and brilliance you find
In your own heart and spirit, your mind, and your soul.
For within you are perfect! You’re wise, and you’re whole!
The secret in stone is a secret no more!
Your Truth is revealed; it is clear and so pure!
Now return to your journey of purpose and path;
You can seek any moment for answers–just ask!

Elsewhere #Poem
I don’t fear Elsewhere.
But from never-ending now,
I beg a reprieve!
I continue to evolve;
In time the results will show!

O let us dance and let us sing
In praise of beauty that is Spring!
As flowers bloom and songbirds sing,
There’s brand new life in everything!
We’re not exempt; we’re not left out
Of all the giving Spring’s about!
We can transform, without a doubt:
Just look within and let it out!
Let in the new! The old, release.
Let go of fear, allowing peace.
In harmony replace dis-ease
And safety calm anxieties.
We’re not alone—we have a guide,
The voice of wisdom deep inside,
The One who our true needs provides
And gives us heartbeat, breath and life!
So let us dance and let us sing
In praise of beauty that is Spring!
As flowers bloom and songbirds sing,
There’s brand new life in everything!

Written for Eugi’s Weekly Prompt, Dance:

This poem started with just 4 lines. But as I wrote, it expanded. After I went to bed last night, glad to have written my NaPoWriMo contribution for the day, it occurred to me it would make a great song! And the music was there, so I captured it on my double strung harp while it was still fresh in my mind. When Eugi left a comment saying the poem could be a song, I knew I had to record it and include the audio here. So, here it is! Thank you very much, Eugi!
Chasing Rainbows #Decima #Poem
The rainbow shimmers pure and bright
With hidden hopes just round the bend
And pot of gold there at its end!
O would it not bring such delights?
We think by day and dream by night,
Forgetting current time and space
For what could be and giving chase.
Yet meanwhile, as we race and run,
Our time has passed, and life is done.
How have we spent our given grace?
Ronovan Writes Décima Poetry Challenge Prompt No. 53: (CHASE) in the C rhyme line.
Phoenix #Haiku #Poem
We mourn the old forms
Not seeing brilliant new life
Rising from ashes
Rising from ashes
Never failing to get up
Always try again
Always try again
Each moment another chance
To strengthen our wings
To strengthen our wings
Ever soaring toward our dreams
Rising from ashes

Wealth 3TC #Poem
“What is wealth?” we ask.
We must answer for ourselves-
Can’t afford not to.
Reflections #Tanka #Poem
Spider spinning gauze
Delicate, strong looking glass
Reflecting our hope.
Pilgrims progress faithfully
Through incense of illusion.

Have a Nice Trip 3TC #Poem
Little harp, big dreams!
Transported down life’s rough road,
I am dignified
Until I stumble and fall…
Damn! We’re out of tune again!

Bees #Nonet #Poem
A bee’s life is valid in itself.
We could learn so much, if we tried!
Living in community,
Taking just what they need,
Giving all they can!
We miss the mark
Looking out
For MY
Needs…
