The reign of our food
is clouded with foes.
I won’t dig into
the cons and cheap pros
or theories that spread
like diseases and woes.
Just one simple question:
Do we care to know
and feed ourselves fully,
so good things may grow?

1. Sitting on the porch I feel a breeze;
it lifts the heavy burdens from my mind.
Tender as a child, reminding me to smile,
And only a whisper will do.
Only a whisper will do.
Refrain:
2. The sounds of life compete throughout the day,
And booming thoughts take over in the night.
The Spirit soft and low, urges “be still and know,”
And only a whisper will do.
Only a whisper will do.
Refrain:
3. We can make a difference in this life
And come to know the sweetness of the soul.
When we think and speak in peace, we can feel the love increase,
And only a whisper will do.
Only a whisper will do.
Refrain: (Twice)
The Holy Spirit’s whisper will do.
Refrain:
Love is strong enough
And powerful enough; so
Only a whisper will do.

1. God brought us together,
You and me in Love.
Through our lives we shine his Light
On Earth from Heav’n above.
May we
Refrain:
2. Two made one in fullness,
Both a bless’d part.
We remind each other
Love is where we end and start.
May we
Refrain:
3. Some days our eyes are foggy
With reflections sad and pale.
In quiet mind we find
The Spirit’s Love that lifts the veil.
So we
Refrain:
See through the windows of the eyes
Into the waters of the soul,
Reflecting every being pure and whole.
God brought us together,
Pure and whole.
Refrain:
See through the windows of the eyes
Into the waters of the soul,
Reflecting a being pure and whole.
Sometimes I want to go visit the Queen-
A shadow of brighter days.
I realize my life is much more than it seems,
And try to reclaim the ways
That I Am the Queen of my destiny
And Fate is a Choice I make!

Another Quadrille for De’s
dVerse prompt!
Instrument: Tempo – Seagull Excursion Folk Acoustic Guitar
1. Sing the song of love and light!
It gives your Spirit power and might
And takes away the fight or flight.
Sing the song of love and light!
Refrain:
2. Sing the song of hope and care!
It spreads compassion everywhere
And makes the burdens less to bear.
Sing the song of hope and care!
Refrain:
3. Sing the song of sweet release!
It calms the mind and gives you peace
And tells the rushing winds to cease.
Sing the song of sweet release!
Refrain:
Refrain:
The One-in-All-is-singing song,
The music of the heav’nly throng
We come to earth to pass along
The One-in-All-is-singing song!
If only those with feathers fly,
Then why do airplanes cross the sky?
And why are kites allowed to soar?
There must be something… so much… more!
If only those with wings take flight,
Then why do stars shoot through the night?
And why are minds allowed to probe?
There must be more… we can behold!
If only those with feathers lift,
Then why the heart with tender wish?
And why the prayer without a word?
There’s always More… The soul is heard!

Written for Victoria’s prompt,
Come Fly with Me-dVerse Poetics.
When I started these lyrics in 2011, they contained the verses of
Remember (The LOA Song).
There they stayed, and I often use that song in concerts and workshops based on the Law of Attraction.
The verses heard here were written in 2012, and the third verse and music just this week. Even a song goes on a journey! So how much more do we! May your journey be one of constant opening!

1. Your experience now
Was created before.
Your thinking and feeling
Have only brought more.
A new understanding
Can even the score
And let in the life
You deserve and adore!
So
Refrain:
2. By changing the inside,
Improve what you get.
Enjoy what you have,
And let go of the rest.
The Universe carries you
Every step,
Supplying your needs.
So have faith! You are blessed!
And
Refrain:
3. Your thinking and feeling
Are not all there is.
A Power much higher
Inspires your bliss.
In every detail
You believe is amiss,
Hear Love softly calling you
Deeper than this!
And
Refrain:
So sweet,
Like the butterfly you find release.
Refrain:
Reach within yourself and feel the opening, contented,
The broken wing, now mended.
Soar in harmony and peace!
As deep within yourself you feel the lightening, astounding,
The brightening, surrounding,
And like the butterfly you find release.
You have known the choke hold of fear,
Tomb of depression,
Volcano of rage,
Maze of mind and feelings.
You have tasted, recoiled;
Touched, rejected;
Seen, disbelieved;
Heard, misunderstood;
Smelled, flinched.
Awaken, remember:
I am the Opener
Of pathways unknown to you!
Know Me!

A Quadrille in response to Victoria’s “open” prompt at
dVerse.
Instrument: Tempo – Seagull Excursion Folk Acoustic Guitar
1. O you can love my body,
But you are missing much.
‘Cause I am more than everything
You see and hear and touch.
Refrain:
Love fully,
The aspects and the whole.
Love freely,
Body, mind and soul.
2. And you can love my intellect
For all I understand.
But even that is limited;
It isn’t who I am.
Refrain:
3. O you can love my soul,
And how I wish you would!
But all alone it’s nothing
Except in God the Good!
Refrain:
And don’t you worry if it seems too hard to do now,
‘Cause only God can make Agape love shine through now.
Seek the kingdom deep in you,
And you’ll come to see it too.
May your love reflect the truth!
So you love fully,
All your aspects and the whole.
Love freely,
Love your body, mind and soul.
‘Cause only then
Can you reach out your hand
And love others fully,
The aspects and the whole.
Love them freely,
Body, mind and soul.
Love freely,
Body, mind and soul.
I used to wish for things
And buy them when I could,
But found out that the tools
Don’t make the living good.
Creating all I want
And learning something more,
The skills have served me well,
But life was still a chore…
At last I looked within,
Expecting darkest space:
But found instead the Light
Beyond this time and place.
It’s hard sometimes to calm
When problems need a fix;
The mind does loops and swirls,
Up to so many tricks.
We try and try to force
And everything to solve.
Yet there is only Power
In knowing peace and love.
What’s this to do with wishes?
I never ask for more
Than being the potential
That shimmers at my core.
All things that I could hope for,
Could want or ever be
Are manifest already;
I only wish to see!

My response to Mish’s wonderful prompt at
dVerse.
I’ve done enough wishful thinking in my life, and it’s never measured up. I don’t regret it, but now do my best to let Universal Intelligence “think” through me and not to rest all my hope and expectations on material things – ore people!
