****
There is a city of the Lord
Built upon the rocks.
Below the water flows
As a road for
Travelers to come and go.
In the city of the Lord
The lights and lamps set it a glow.
It is a city that has withstood
The furry of nature and the
Lives of millions
Who walk the stones
To the shore.
In every city across the world
Is the divinity of the Lord.
It is within the buildings.
Within the shops
And within the churches
Standing on the rocks.
There is always light that shines
Where ever life exist.
It is the people who know the light
That bring peace and love
To the land.
It is the children who play
And smile to bring
Joy to the town each day.
It is within every town
That the eternal light of God
Can be found.
It is within every heart
To grow love from a rock.

“Grand Falls” – Flagstaff, AZ – Scott Wood – Featured Photographer

****
As the Spirit flies in the sky
Above the cannon and rocks so high,
The cascading flow from the water source
Ebbs and course through the core.
The world so grand is created
By the One Spiritual hand.
In a land that flows with
God’s eternal light
Is the land where life exist
In perfect harmony.
Grace between air, water and dirt
Is the inherent nature of the earth.
The water moves
Across the rocks
And leaves a gorge in the core.
The river way
Spawns life and breath into
Those that swim and
Animals that play.
While the trees and plants grow
From the earth’s floor.
The sunlight ignites
The beauty of the Lord.
All life in and beneath the sky
Is a reflection of God’s creative side.
The Spirit that flows through
Air, water, and rocks,
Is the beating heart
And the breath of life.
It is throughout the land
That the Lord’s love spans
Within every molecule
Of air, water, and dirt.
Within every living creature
That roams the earth.

The air is cold
the moon shines bright
with the stars of life.
The town is silent
except for the cries of a clown.
A sad clown
that brings joy to everyone
with his balloons and tricks.
He is the same clown
that wares an upside down frown by day.
But at night his smile goes away.
It slides away with the joys of each day
He is happy by day
For it is people
that make his heart feel young and gay.
When he walks through the door
His life unravels and falls to the floor.
Oh beautiful clown
please let your smile grow.
I love you more than you could ever know.
(1974-1979)
****
As a child and teenager I always liked clowns. This poem was not about a particular clown. It was a self-reflection of how I was feeling at that time in my life. On the outside I was happy and people saw me as so. Yet, inside I was sad. Today, I cannot remember what event may have triggered these emotions. But it is most likely when I was 16 years of age, and was “grounded for life,” as my father would say. Social isolation for a teenage through a summer is like a life sentence.

In a place so far away,
is a land where the fairies play.
A place beneath the sky,
with clouds that ride,
the winds that tie the skies,
as the Infinite flies.
It is in the place that the fairies play
that the trees sway to the gentle breeze,
and the fairy dance shakes the leaves.
Within this garden is a misty air.
And on the floor in the garden beds
beneath the stems
of the Flowers that grow
the children run and climb
and nap upon the silken vines.
Within the flower head
lay the infants nestled in bed.
The petals cover the little ones.
And in the hand of God spans the Fairy Land
a place where dreams and wishes come true.
A place where Love Is dripping In the morning dew.
The sunlight glistens on all that grows.
And when it sets the moon light
floods the fields below.
It is in this magical place
of fairy land
that Spirit blesses
all creatures here
with grace and power for this sphere.
And it is here that the Spirit
mystically appears
and dances the dance
as the energy flows
and ignites the world aglow.
All living here are bathed
in the energy of the Loving One.
They are the purest of pure
of God’s energy source.
They are the illuminating rays
that filters into the earthly plane.
Within this mystical place
is pure love
over flowing for the human race.

Under the willow
A mother weeps
As she buries her child
Beneath her feet.
The Queen of Heaven
Stands at her side
As she wipes
The tears from her eyes.
The shoots of the willow
The mother ties.
With a wish in her heart
She pleads to the tree
For the release of her grief.
An enchanted tree
The willow weeps
Its limbs hang low
With the heavy leaves.
The shoots whip when the winds blow.
As the priest and priestess pray
For ills to fade away.
As the poet lays to sleep
Beneath the willow the dreams do grow
As the words of the poem start to flow.
The magical tree the willow heals
Those who weep.
And eases the pain
From their tormented sleep.
To bring serenity to the sea of tears
To bring harmony within the earthly sphere.
With the sway of the willow shoots
The mother releases her fears.
Beneath the moon
The willow grows
In love the tree bows it head
To the souls of the dead.
With its arms it embraces
The mother who stands beneath the tree.
And cloaks the poet who lay to dream.
****
Several weeks ago when I was meditating the Blessed Mother came to me. She took my hand and we buried a seed and from that seed grew a big, beautiful willow tree. The limbs so heavy were laden down with the gifts it brings to me. Each day and night I thank Mary and the Lord for this beautiful image now permanently etched in my mind and heart. Several days ago, I was googling the spiritual meaning of the willow and I had to read more on the origins of the Mary. After reading several sites I sat in silence and the poem flowed. I dedicate this poem to all the mothers around the world who have stood beneath the willow tree. For it is said there is magic and healing powers within the willow tree and for thousands of years Mothers around the world have stood beneath the tree in grief…And so the willow weeps…And so the willow heals.

“One of a Kind” – Zhangjiajie National Park, China–Thomas Dawson- Featured Photographer
www.photobotos.com May 7, 2012
****
Within a land of hills and trees
Stands mountainous rocks
That tower above the valley low.
Greenery that grows into the misty sky
Above the clouds that drift by.
It is a place of mystic joy
A place of peace
In an earthly plane.
It is an exotic land
That spans the ancient
Space and time.
It is one of a kind
Locked into the
Universal Mind.
It’s uniqueness
Is for all to see
A place of mystery
Of the old and new
China entwined.
The beauty and intrigue
Of such a spot
Is a haven for a heavenly lot.
A place where time has stopped
As the world swirls out of control
The Lord creates a place
For spirits to play.
And man to comprehend
The holy scrolls.
It is a place that takes
Your breath away.
A place to kneel and pray.
A place where ancient spirits lay
The path of God in an ancient land.
A path of the old and new entwined
A place for all people to see
Their own inner Divinity
All One in God…
God One in All.

In the water below
The reflection of the moon glows.
The energy of the Lord
Illuminates the shore.
Within the stillness of the lake
Life flourishes along the floor.
The ripples on the water top
Are currents of praise
From the life forms below.
There is no darkness where the light shines
For darkness is a trick of the human mind
It is a place where we do not see
The light of God a blaze
Within our being.
For light is always there
In whatever shade
You choose to see.
Casting shadows
Across the water top.
And filtered through the trees.
To see the light
Dance within the breeze.
To see the light casting rays
Through life’s experiences.
Is to open your eyes
To your Spiritual
Awakening.

During the night
With the candles aglow
I listen to the wind blow.
The rain fall cascading down
Crashes loudly on the ground.
The sounds of the rain
Is a song from the Lord
That lulls me to sleep.
I watch the lacy curtains dance
As the gust of wind
Send the ceiling fan in a spin.
The sounds of the storm echoes
Throughout the darkened room.
The crack of thunder rumbles
Like a furious snore.
Soaring lightning rods illuminate the sky
While the room shadows catch my eyes.
The tumultuous air calms
As the clouds glide slowly by.
It is the whisper of the Spirit
Within the storm I hear.
As the message of love
Settles my fears.
On a stormy night like this
There is great joy and Eternal bliss
For the storm within the Universe
Is where all life begins.
****
I always love the sound of a spring storm.
Last night I fell asleep to the Lord
Singing me a lullaby in the cascading rain.
This morning I awoke to Spirit’s gentle breath humming in my ear
As the soft rain was hitting my window pane.
There is so much love in a storm like this.
I am eternally grateful for this earthly bliss.
