Voices on the wind
Carry telltale signs of life
I am not alone
Neighbors whom I do not know
Brighten lives they do not see

Swivel
The speaker is loud
The heart, in turn, is quiet
I swivel inward
Connection
Read the manual…
Huge book! Connect the cables.
But it’s not plugged in!
O let us plug into care
Before opening to speak!
Good Listening
Good listening is hard to find!
So stand out from the crowd with yours.
It’s not that hard, it’s not a chore.
Please, care enough to be so kind!
Good listening is such a gift!
Yes, both to give into receive.
If you want it, you must believe
That other people share your wish!
Good listening is hard to find!
So stand out from the crowd with yours.
It’s not that hard, it’s not a chore.
Please, care enough to be so kind!
Winter’s Hope
The frigid air is full of snow!
At any moment it could fall…
And time is moving cold and slow…
The frigid air is full of snow!
Persephone is Queen below;
Demeter, on your hope I call!
The frigid air is full of snow;
At any moment it could fall…
Trust
Be careful when you say you love,
For if you do, let go you must!
It’s not a game of push and shove;
Be careful when you say you love!
No force on earth or heav’n above
Can hold a bond devoid of trust!
Be careful when you say you love,
For if you do, let go you must!
The Cat
We had a cat when I was small.
Imagine that! We had a cat!
Most independent pet of all;
We had a cat when I was small.
With catnip, squeaky mouse or ball,
When I wanted to play, she sat…
We had a cat when I was small.
Imagine that! We had a cat!
Welcome
O try to welcome ev’ry one,
Acknowledging the change it brings.
Life’s weather, whether rain or sun…
O try to welcome ev’ry one!
Learn from the fear, and love the fun,
For each is but a passing thing.
O try to welcome ev’ry one,
Acknowledging the change it brings.
The Clue
Not a crum remained
We all knew who ate the cake
He left his paw print
Clay
Bless’ed mud of Earth
Mixed with water, fired and dried
Transformed to new life
Flute: Nova Double Flute in C Minor (hummingbird–Spanish cedar, not clay)
+ Koshi Terra Chime, Clay “Gaia” Shaker
