Thank you to my friends who are local and called or texted for me to post the poems or link I mentioned in my Liebster award info. So here they are. Enjoy!
Under The Willow
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.

Malala A Gift From God!
A girl so young, innocent and sweet,
With a voice that rebounds through the streets.
Her song for girls and women across her land,
Give dreams of freedom
To those that wish they can.
Through Spirits eyes she reads a book,
Through divine mind she learns to write,
Through the voice of God she valiantly chants,
For the rights of women within her land.

One young girl with THE POWER within,
Can topple the reign of hate.
The voice of the Lord’s messenger
Valiantly creates.
It is from divinity expressed
In perfect natural form,
That freedom is born!
Inspired love from around the world
Embraces Malala tight,
Raising her soul
Within the Lords luminous light.

A girl so young and innocent
With a voice that resonates around the world.
It is her voice of truth and love,
That has great power the evil dream of.
It is her voice we hear in our heart,
It is her voice that will never be quelled,
For the Lord has spoken the truth to all.
And within her heart
The Lord’s words do swell.
The Lord’s message will forever be sung
Lovingly around the world.
It is within the voice of this enchanted girl.
A girl so young, innocent and sweet
With a voice that rebounds through the streets.
Her song for girls and women across her land,
Give freedom to those that wish they can.

Her soul so innocent and pure
A gift from the Lord.
Her life a threat to evil
Is a strength they deplore.
There is no Lord,
Supporting their war.
It is a war within their mind,
It is a war that supports their hate.
To give them power over those that fear.
To eliminate the love and goodness
Of the people they disintegrate.
The Lords message will forever be sung
Lovingly around the world.
It is within the voice of this enchanted girl.
Around the world and through the heart of all
The power of love and healing given by THE ALL
Raises Malala from this tragic day,
So her voice will speak the words of God once more.
No evil can take away
What God has given as destiny.

A girl so young, innocent and sweet
With a voice that rebounds through the streets.
Her song for girls and women across her land
Give freedom to those that wish they can.
It’s time for all around the world
To stand and raise our arms.
With our eyes on God,
And heart open wide,
Let the Spirit move hate aside.
It is our thoughts and deeds
That raise the love
And brings evil crumbling to its knees…
It is our choice to free those we love
It is our choice to take back our land.
Hand in hand, heart in heart,
Call upon the Lord
To clear the way
For Love to manifest
Perfectly today.

Both of these poems honor women. And I send my love and light to all Mother that has endured such a great loss. I send all positive energy and love to Malala for her continued success and may be held within all our hearts as she continues to be a voice for women. What a gift this young girl is! Namaste, mary
