Language of the flower
Speaks the word today
Instilled by love of God
Encouragement of way
Through petals of the many
Take shape to form the one
Fruit produced from grace
That God’s will was done
Roots of searching deep
Foundation that has grown
Secure in passing storms
Wisdom of the known
Intimate opening
In giving of it all
Seeds of the to be
Await their time to fall
Let opening of beauty
Catch the eye today
Pause with grateful ear
To hear the word today
In stillness of the now
Peace encompassing
River shines in rippled glass
Spirit whispering
Soul at rest in Your embrace
Your great treasures shared
Lost within Your offerings
Worldly can’t compare
Empty mind, heart consumes
Wisdom from the vine
Pride falls through my empty hands
Clenching treasures fine
Consume my soul these blessed gifts
Engrained them in my way
Returning to their drawing
All throughout my day
Each day a transformation
From monochrome of night
Illumination births
The morn in colors bright
Jesus won connection
Of heaven to this earth
A choice begins the path
Of Spirit to be birthed
We see a different way
With loves perspective now
Blessed with greater purpose
Led if will allows
This day prepared with grace
Disguised in challenge blessed
In molding of the soul
Your help I pre confess
Let me see Your colors
In love throughout this day
Through stirrings of my heart
To move within Your way
As dawning light portrays
Awakened now alive
The soul perceives in love
Once lost, the dead revived
Aside in time of now
To dwell in scriptures deep
Pray Spirit to abound
For treasures of souls keep
Words of black and white
Spawn in colors true
Beautiful the rising
Of visions love of You
Contemplations swirl
Consumed by view of soul
In mist of Spirits breath
Heavens treasures dole
Illuminations shine
Sparks of joy ignite
Truths of focus clear
Spoke through blessed light
Engrain within the heart
This love in molded clay
Vision of beyond
To world let soul portray
From whence the autumn leaves
Fall in colors dawning
Presence now abounds
A new beginning spawning
Peace connecting soul
Stir new awakenings
Rejoice in grace filled light
Birthed by Gods love calling
Tranquil is the silence
That draws into the now
Grateful speaks the heart
In bond that You allow
Light begins the step
In moving in the way
A soul receives its charge
A carrier today
Message of the season
Surrounds us everywhere
In colors of rejoicing
Received in wisdom clear
Summer of abundance
Blessings were received
Fruit within in the branches
Grown in faith believed
A movement of the heart
Stirs within the deep
Gratefulness of love
Too much for soul to keep
A time for letting go
Of giving of it all
Trust in word of God
Leaves begin to fall
In colors of the sweet
Pure beauty on display
Grace gives the received
In love that guides the Way
A vision not painted
Inspiration now gone
Heart less creative
A future redrawn
Passed by a soul in need
Too busy for that now
I missed a blessing shared
A grace that You endowed
Victory of darkness
Surely wins the fight
When fear blocks the shining
Of Your blessed light
So inner Spirit rise
Embarrassment not king
Inspirations now ignite
Gift of being sing
From heart I sung my song
No other ears did hear
Joy now fills my soul
A fragrance that endears
Wrote a poem no one liked
I know that it is fine
A piece of soul I shared
God knows where it shines
Autumn leaves are falling
In puddles of nights rain
A damp chill blows the wind
A dreary sky now reins
Trees shake off nights shower
With sprinkles from above
A drop christens the forehead
Surprising gift of love
A cross found in the signing
Renewed commitment made
A soaking in of Spirit
Anointed blessing prayed
Song of angles calling
Drawing souls retreat
Deep inspired dwelling
My God and soul now meet
Blessings now are falling
In showers of Your grace
Warming Spirit guides
Hope reins in this place
Through Spirit of creation
Speaks language of the soul
Past all human senses
Releasing of control
A practice that is crafted
By Spirit blessed within
Glimpse within the moment
The flow of light begins
A sense of Spirit calling
A touch found in the now
A basking in the dwelling
That emptiness allows
Wisp of breath in catching
Of voice of the beyond
Stitched within the passing
Connection of the bond
Words past our describing
Touching soul in deep
Through humble empty being
Your voice in our soul seeps
May God’s will be my prayer
A prison key releasing fear
Let all my trust rest in you
For you my God, hold my soul near
Pure foolishness for me to brag
In my accomplishments
Or to seek as treasure own
The world’s false compliments
Let me follow in Your Word
With strength to do what’s right
When I fall and sin is mine
Turn to Your forgiving light
For you are love and love I know
For me is what is best
Struggles, strife or challenges
Comfort, joy or rest
In fragile balance my life lays
The realization all is grace
Whatever is Your will to be
My grateful heart embrace
