Branches of trees sway in the breeze
Bursting with green
It’s spring! If you please
Blue sky above
And the warmth of the sun
Mother Nature showers her blessings
On everyone

We Are Never Apart
I was once a star that lit up the sky
Do you honestly believe
That I could leave you and die
I come to you now, not in the human sense
But from the Absolute
The place we were all delivered whence
There is no above and there is no below
There is only the here and now
And the eternal energy flow
The warmth of the sun is my loving embrace
The gentle breeze, my kiss on your face
So worry not, feel the caress of my heart
And rest in the knowledge that we are never apart
Bluebells And Buttercups
Bluebells and buttercups
Have we met before
Were we once intertwined
As we passed through the revolving door
Was I once your mother,
Your lover or your son
Did you hold my hand and weep
As another race was run
Did I hold you in my arms
And smell your scent so sweet, or
Was I the unwashed urchin
You scorned in the street
All possibilities are relevant
Everything has its place
My beautiful bluebells and buttercups
I bow to your loving grace

Watching
I stand here and watch
As you sleep in your bed
Your favourite pillow
Cradling your head
You look so peaceful
Exploring your dreams
Funny how life
Is never as it seems
You cried in pain
The day I left
If only you could see
That you were never bereft
When your time comes to join me
I will greet you with my smile
And take your hand, as together
We walk the golden mile
In the meantime
I stand here and watch
As you sleep in your bed
Your favourite pillow
Cradling your head

I Am The…
I am the loss that caused you to grieve
The heart you wear on your sleeve
I am the rainbow that follows the rain
The winter frost on your window pane
I am the breeze that ruffles your hair
The footsteps you heard on the stair
I am the glint in a baby’s eye
The star that shoots across the sky
I am the balm that soothes your pain
The air you breathe again and again
I am a peacock strutting with style
Search your dreams
You will glimpse my smile
Life is eternal
We are never apart
I am the presence
Forever in your heart
