Earth Day 22nd April

Mother Earth
Earth Day  Is a day for us all to remember and share in the celebration of what our Earth Mother gives to us.. and how we can take better take care of our environment. I also some time ago, wrote a poem on how much we pollute our Earth Mother, the poem was inspired by a major oil spill into her Oceans..
Remember the Gifts of Mother Nature and All of those whom you cherish and hold dear in your life.. Remember that each Breath we breathe..
 She gives us each breath..
Remember to love her and respect her..
For she gives us Life

Earth Mother
Black is the ocean, as the liquid gold spills
Black is the feathers choking seabird bills
Black is the day we pollute another shore
And Black is my heart as it aches with her sores..
~~
Earth Mother, oh Earth Mother, we abuse you so
We ruin your waters, we ruin your glow..
Earth Mother, Oh Earth Mother, help us to see
How each hurt we inflict, hurts You and Me..
Tell me this, tell me true,
Why is man destroying You?
~~
I hold onto your beauty, I hold onto your Light
Why do they not see the hurt of your plight?
The blackness is greed, which now spills from your depths
The seas of darkness, like hovering debts
~~
Each is a mirror, in the conscious thought
Many not caring and think of you naught
My heart bleeds with you, I hear your cries
You weep endlessly from your skies
~~
You howl and scream and belch out smoke
You shake us and rattle and blew as you spoke
But do we listen? To your words of woo
No we humans.. We think we know..
~~
But soon your scorn, your wind and your storms
Will devour us, and leave us with no form.
And then our lament will wail like your Winds
Our Maker will show us the price of our sins
And our Earth Mother will cry, in her birthing pains
As yet another end-cycle begins again......

Fragility of Life


Do we really understand the fragility of Life?
Have we ever thought of consequence and all the Strife?
So we can run around in cars and have our pretty things
Have you ever thought of all the pain we Human’s bring?
Have you ever considered just how you’d feel if orphaned you were left
As your mother became a trophy with her skin stripped from her chest?
Did you never spare a thought for the Ocean and her depths?
A dumping ground for all our waste no longer we respect,
And have you thought how hard it is to find enough to eat
When driven from your home
Have you ever wondered how far that you would roam?
And did you never think as the Ice melts in your drink
Of the Polar Bears home that in the Ocean sinks..
It’s time to understand that we cannot turn away
For we are each responsible for the world we live today
We humans have tipped the scales as we destroy with tools of greed
It’s time to re-awake and replant a caring seed.

A Poem~ Walking Amidst the Shadows

Photobucket

Walking Amidst the Shadows


I walk in the darkness among the trees of life
Alone with my thoughts I reach out amidst the strife
Of a mind caught between worlds of tormented desire
They crackle and flash like the flames in the fire

The sparks that ignite me float to diminish
And the shadows dance backwards to a time when we’re finished
To a time beyond this Earth realm where our souls
 once flew free
To an age of timelessness where no dark would we see

Yet now I walk in the field of my dream
The Shadows creep up and hide amid the trees
For the knowledge we once knew is still bound inside
Waiting to awaken the whole of Mankind.

We need to release the jealousies of hate
And open our hearts, let open up those gates
To release the burdens we place needlessly on guilt
Let go of the shadows, let the love-light be built.

Hold it close heal all you see
Stop the judgement and negativity
Walk a path to truth of who I am
And be content within the Universal Plan.

Be bold, be brave, stop being so naive
Live life in love, so shall you give and receive
Cast your Light and drive the shadows out
Be not afraid of the flame as you shout—
To a world the truth who long ago forgot

Walk in the dawn of conscious thought
Listen to your heart to the battles it has fought
 As I now walk, my path becomes clear
I hold the light, be true and sincere

For each of us journey to a land made of Dreams
Each holds the thread as we stretch at the seams
As the Stars keep on falling sending us the Signs
Mankind is a spec within Cosmic Designs

As for me in my forest of shade
I give thanks to my shadows for the strength that
 they gave
For without their darkness no light would exist
And my journey on Earth is well worth the risk
For to progress on home the flames sometimes scorch

So let not the shadows hang low where you are
Reach out and take heart, for the Light is our Star..

Strength Within

Photobucket
Strength Within.

Where do we find the strength to carry our daily load?
 
When our burdens seemed too heavy along life’s rugged road?
 
From which deep well, do we draw up the water of our life?
 
When our troubles are too many and our lives are full of strife.
 
Our strength is right beside us, and is always shinning bright.
 
Our Lord will help and guide us. A burden shared is light.
 
The answers lie within us if we search that deep dark well.
 
For our beloved Spirit Farther in each of us do dwell.
 
So whenever you feel alone, troubled or afraid.
 
Remember the friends around you,
 
 And our Lord in whose image you were made.

Fragmented Souls


Shattered are the pieces as they fall

As fragmented souls scream and call

Can you not hear as they shout and plea

‘What is to become of me?’


Scattered to the winds I hear their minds

As each plea is for ‘Self’ to find

Peace so lost within tormented thought

As into the abyss of illusion they are caught


Fear takes their hearts, squeezing them dry

Leaving them hollow and too empty to cry

Tears turn to ice with hearts that grow cold

As sickness of greed comes to take hold


Like zombies they march along with the crowd

Will power forgotten and no longer proud

Their lights dimmed by possessions of wealth

Flickering flames in the wind of ill health


Fragments of Faith blown out with all creeds

Forgotten memories of simple needs

Ancient teachings swept away with the ark

A penitent symbol as we bow to the Dark


So gather your fragments to make a fight

Not to war, but be Warriors of Light.

Hold up your banners of love and truth,

Be an example to all our youth


It’s never too late to change but a thought

For your power is within, so worry nought

Let in the Light and give as you receive..

As Warriors all we need do is breathe..


Allow each cell to open and mend

The Fragmented thoughts each of us send...

United we gather in strength across the land

As the power of LIGHT shall make its last stand.

The Flower of Life


The Flower of Life.

Here I sit within the Garden of my mind
Sifting through thoughts to what I might find
The Ancient Secrets~ long lost, now found
Of a Shackled past we’ve been held in and bound.
I now lift the veil, and what do I see?
A history wrapped up deceptively
Secrets withheld, and knowledge bound tight
An illusion of Truth, so we learn how to fight
I look to the sky, to see a trailing maze
As aircraft pollute, leaving Chemtrails of haze
An Ozone that’s gone, And Oceans that Die,
As Astronauts build Space Stations in the sky
A New child is born its hunger unheard
Land turns to Dust, and the heat is absurd
I sift through the data, throwing much out
And that’s when I heard the Flower of Life shout.
Building blocks of nature we can no longer ignore
And yet still Science closes its doors
The facts are before you, you just need to look
Open your eyes
Come people Look!
We’re in this together, you’re suffering is mine
The sooner you see that, the sooner you’ll find
Break Free your Shackles
Awake to the

Time Has almost Run Out

Time has all but run out


Time Has All But Run Out

Time has all but run through the hour glass,
The Sand has all but trickled to an end
Faces on the clocks of different zones
Ticking, Ticking,
Calling us home.
Cracked Earth, parched souls,
Empty pockets, hollow hearts
Crying rivers, flooded Tears
Feeling Separate,
Through Aeons of years
Waking to the Bell of Alarm
Ticking minutes upon your left arm
Ruled by Time a day goes by
Head bent in work and Sighs
Wishing Days and weeks would Fly
Then wondering where was time spent
As Sand did trickled on
And Days did turn
While Man and Woman Yearn
We have much to learn
Time is almost Done
Before A life has begun
As new-born cries
We shower pollution
From our Skies
Time
Is
Almost
Done.

Ocean Of Love

Photobucket
Our Love is like an Ocean as deep as it can be
Waves crashing to the shore, I love you, can’t you see
The spray of salty droplets like diamonds on your skin
The rhythm of your breathing as I sigh and let you in
Caressing every curvature, hugging coastline sand
Melting sandcastles, built by your own hand
Your name I write over and over on the shore
Surrounded by the shells that you found which I adore
The Sun is welcoming us as we enjoy another day.
We laugh and we frolic, among the waves and spray
We move with the tide that has its ebb and flow
And I dive with the Dolphin, as in ecstasy let go..
The whale too will sing you my lover’s tune
As we float among the stars by the light of Silver Moon
So remember well my love, as you watch the waves at play
For my love is like the Ocean and its sent to you this day..

Searching

Searching




Photobucket


All through our lives we search for that illusive feeling


Some never find it, while others it sends reeling.


To crash through the floor or fly to dizzy heights


The thing that we all search for that creates so many plights


We kill for it, we lie for it. While some lay down their lives for it.

 As children we hold on tight to a Mother's warm embrace.


Through teenage blues we search some more with tears etched on our face.


If lucky when we're grown our searching will have ceased.


For some the lock is fastened as they search for their release.


Some seek it in religion and send their praises high.


Some believe in Karma denying with a sigh


But each of us from the moment we are born


Go searching for this elusive thing as it takes its many forms.


So what is this something we all crave?


LOVE


Love


Takes us from the cradle to the grave.

Can we not see?

Photobucket




 What have We Become?

What have we become that we cannot begin to see?
The Damage that we’ve done to our Ocean land and Trees,
We belch out pollution, pumping veins in Mother Earth
Spewing out our poisons that pollute around her girth
Her Ocean floors we’ve blackened, turn all to red,
And blood is on our hands as our sea-life is now dead

What have we become that we cannot begin to see?
The damage with we do which affects both you and me
The aerosols we spray like the Chemtrails across our sky
Leave a trail of poison and no one is asking Why?
Rainforests disappearing a hundred species every day
Some we’ll never see, for we wiped them clean away.

What have we become that we feel we need to kill—
Everything around us, Is this Free Will?
I often shed a tear as I feel our Mother’s pain
For I know it’s now the time as she screams with wind and rain.
It’s time that we were shaken to realize our mistakes
How we’ve pillaged, raped and stole and Take, take ,take

Never do we honour or give her back respect
We just take her life for granted, abuse her and neglect.
Can we not see as we cut down all her trees?
We cut the very air that each of us do breathe.

What have we become as we kill for greed and power?
Our Mother now chastises in this our final hour
Her anger is just beginning to make her presence felt
For mankind is just an insect, as we reap what we have dealt
Her sigh is now heaving on the Winds of discontent
As she reflects all of our Anger over the centuries we’ve sent.

What have we become that we cannot begin to see?
We are destroying our Planet along with it you and me.

Watching Me

Photobucket

I sit within the wood this Night
And cast my thoughts to you
I see the many mysteries
That many think taboo
I hear the whispers of the wind
As they echo in the wood
My lips are sealed I will not speak
and yet you hear my cry
For my eyes they watch from high above
As the wind she gives a sigh.
The Shadows climb like ivy trails
Upon the the trunks smooth bark
A Shamans drum a beat of hearts
To drive away the dark
A voice is heard upon the wind
Its cry is from a girl
Who once did walk upon his path
Her journey to unfurl
She came to find a boy she'd lost
In times of long ago
She asked the trees to send her thoughts
Of where she now should go.
For aching heart she found his beat
In the Drum of the Shamans tune
The Tree did speak
To say She'd find him soon.
For there within the branches high
The Girl now could see 
The Face reflected back to her
Was Me.

The Little Folk
The woods were silent as the shadows fell.
Broken only by the pheasants cry a warning to tell
My footsteps in rhythm paced out their steps
As deeper I walked and the coldness it crept.

The ivy it clung to the trunks of the tree
Along with the frost, now my breath you can see
My heart was a pounding and rushed in my ears
As I breathed in the woodland her essence brought tears

Then out from its depth came a little old man
With a long beard of white from the Little Folks Clan
With bell on his hat and a spring in his step
He told me it was no coincidence we’d met

He spoke of the times in the summers of blue
He’d watched me walk among the flowers in dew
And how he would sit unseen by my tree
And meditate with me and it filled him with glee

I said ‘Why haven’t  I seen you before?’
“Why because now you are ready to open that door,
We have to be sure of your life’s good intent,
And to answer your questions the chief Elf me sent ..

We hold this woodland in sacred revere
And so too we know you hold these trees dear
We listen to your heart as it pours out its song
And so we give you our message for which you do long

It’s time that you Humans took stock of your lives
For all we are hearing are pitiful cries
When do you honour your land and your Seas?
Only when you do will you see the likes of me.

We are the guardians the Nymphs and the Sprites
Leprechauns and Fairies that hide from your sight
We’re busily working to help heal your land.
Now I’ve come to help you and hold out my hand.”

So I held out my hand to this lovely old Elf
And was whisked through the air to be all by myself.
To find myself sat with my back to my tree
With memories of the one who was once filled with glee

I gave a wide smile as I opened my eyes
And got up from my tree and gave thank to the skies
For no longer were they dark with shadows and gloom
But my heart gave a skip as I danced back  on home

So when you next go and walk in the wood
Be sure to take note , that your intent is good
And you never know as you lean on a tree
Just when the Little Folk will let  you see..

Shine Your Light.
From time to time along our way
We need to speak and have our say
In order that the lights do shine
Other people we need to remind.
Of all the folk whose lights are dim
Where struggle is hard and life is grim
They need to see beyond their walls
That many more in darkness toils.
The little beggar boy on street.....
In India who has no feet
In Africa  where wars still rage
And children starve with wide eyed gaze.
Where hope is lost and villages run
From evil men with drugs and guns
Yes time to time along the way
We need to speak and have our say.
Of Shanty towns and orphan waifs
The suffering is endless case by case.
I could go on and list some more
But maybe you would shut the door
As in your bubble you nicely live
You need to see you need to give.
If not your money then add your light
Open your hearts and see their plights
Look further than the end of your nose
And my words will count as poem I pose
If just one who reads my lines
Opens your hearts and let it shine...
Upon all those who are less fortunate than you
Your light will brighten the Worlds dim view
So dare to step outside your walls
And lift the darkness from serpent coils
Compassionate thoughts will add their swell
So come on give generously
Open your hearts see what I see
For when enough of us really awake
A better land then awaits
Where all are one and all are free
All I ask is
Shine your Light
With me.

Lonely Winds of Time.

Photobucket

Lonely Winds..

The wind it howls though my mind
As it rushes through the window pane
Gaps of thought entwined with yours
Of lonely hearts drumming on the door
To let me in, and know..
That all is safe despite the din.
As yet another night begins the lonely thoughts.
But as the wind it gathers strength and beats
Relentless howling to come in.
You are there within my mind,
I see the shadow as you shine
Your thoughts entwine within my mind
No longer now alone am I,
For like the wind you echo wild
Reverberating around the room,
Clearing the mists no longer gloom
As together we shall be..
Joined in breath in winds of past
Forging ahead in mighty blast
We shed the yoke of burdens carried
Too long we’ve wasted and tarried
Within the room of lonely thought
Where winds did howl and screech and tare
For now my love there’s no compare
As winds of thoughts you reach my mind
And loneliness I no longer find
As you entwine your thoughts with mine..
