a little bit of fun writing for you..(untitled)
I looked into the eyes captured for a moment in the dark pearls
Dark as the night sky with silver stars longing for arms to embrace me
My heart pounding before me my dreams are awakening
Passion rising I looked away
Was I noticed, was I seen, and am I the one?
Oh the questions running through my confused mind
Oh my, Oh my as I was picked up
Meow, meow I am loved!!

LION

I am lion king of the beasts
Upon fresh zebra my family feast
It’s hard work looking after my pride
With poachers and hunters after my hide
But man sees me with a crown on my head
Not with much work too keep my family fed
King of the beasts or so I’m named
Look at me with my tattered mane
I’d rather rest by yonder tree
Than be a movie celebrity
They even place be among the stars
Such an idea is rather bizarre
.......................................................
A SMILE ….[1]
Gazing up at me from her pram
Sneaky as in front of her mam
She beams a smile and eyes that twinkled
I feel like star dust has just been sprinkled
Blessed she is innocent and pure
Such bliss I could long to endure
The bag lady passes with a cart of treasures
Clutching a pie a well earned pleasure
The policemen walk up to the stoners
Asking for names and if they are loners
So who am I and what have I become
Where to haul my … little white bum?
For I look around at the views in my life
The good the bad and challenges and strife
It is with knowledge that I move ahead
Those dreams had in the warmth of my bed
The path is clear but choosing to wander
With excuses and what if’s I sit and ponder

LIGHT WORKING **([2]
Mind spins and heart pounds
The city’s full of industrial sounds
People hurry to get from here to there
Driving cars with a absence of care

A sad race we have become
Lost of laughter, joy and fun
Depressed, lost and full of gloom
Someone has stolen the birthday balloon?

Painting a picture of despair
This is the world Light workers can repair
The world that is blind
A world that shut of to the true humankind

Skillfully crafted like a tradesman knife
Gifted we are of this human life
Our duty is to honor our maker
And make the world of love even greater

Turn your gloom to shinny bright
Your love warm, clean and full of light
Live in harmony with earth and sky
Feel alive and let your spirit fly.

A WORLD WITHIN[3]
I open my eyes and shed a tear
For tightly closed the vision is clear
I'd like to stay, I'd like to hide
And never, ever go outside
What is it that I fear?
"Love yourself" is what I hear
Spirit and I are wonderful friends
And upon spirit I can depend
But I feel so lost in my thoughts
Even on reflection of what's been taught
I know I have to change my ways
And live the now, each and every day
But still I struggle with this task
A world viewed through a painted mask.

LIFE[4]
When all is going wrong
Nothing seems right,
Sit down and still yourself
Find your inner light.
You may see the untruths of others
But forever be true,
Be at peace with yourself
In everything you do.
You walk the rainbow pathway
With many twists and turns,
Life is full of mystery
To explore and to learn.

HEALING HANDS[5]
Moving on... letting go
Mind swings to and throw
Reviewing the past in colourful thought
Recalling many lessons ones been taught.
The universes energy is in my hands
To heal the people of many lands
The door has opened on this day
Ever forward ... no time to stray.

MEDITATION[6]
Gentle melodies, sounds so sweet
Soothing tempo, enchanting beat
In the chair I sit so still
Breathing deeply my lungs I fill
Closing my eyes to still my mind
To a place of beauty -- the purest kind.

SKY SPIRIT[7]
To the sky is where I look this night
The stars above are shinning bright
In the darkness I still my gaze
My hearts on fire a burning blaze.

I sit in stillness full of wonder
Pondering on mankind's blunders
Questions, answers scientific debate
Looking for proof we'd stay up late

But we are spirit loved by all
Won't you hear Great Spirits Call?
Open thy heart and fell the fire
Let thy energy soar higher and higher
To help thee with thy soul's given task
Visions await thee if you should ask
The world of spirit is a gift to thee
It's yours ... It's mine and it's free.

POWER[8]
Power at the flick of a switch
Lights glow without a hitch
Rivers, lakes give us power.
Lines run tower to tower.

Hospitals run day and night
Powering machines and light
Natural beauty forever lost
Adds to our powers cost

Could we do without its' might
Would we be in a terrible plight?
For we need this wondrous tool
Still we waste it like a fool.

BUTTERFLY[9]
Once sheltered I would hide
Too afraid to step outside
Now my world’s on fire
I have found my hearts desire.

The caterpillar for a long time
Saving every quarter, nickel and dime
It wasn’t easy with bills to pay.
It wasn’t easy to live this way

Books I would sit and read
Quite time my greatest need
Now I am ready to fly
The beautiful colourful butterfly.

With wings outstretched fresh and new
I look around at this city I knew
But something has changed it’s not the same
Is this for real or is it a game.

My worlds’ been turned upside down
So forward I go without a frown
I will remember the good and not dark
The lake, the shops and the park.

LESSONS[10]
The eyes of the child filled with tears
Trying always to please thy peers
Finding it hard to learn by rote
The child learns to take down notes

North, South East or West
The young child takes the test
Red, yellow, blue or green
She’s done well and faces gleam.

Though our learning will never end
On spiritual guidance we can depend
For now we learn with guided trust
We live as spirit and that's a plus

SPRITITUAL[11]
This is the place to be
Where friends gather in harmony
It doesn't matter how often your down
It doesn't matter how often you frown
Come on in we're here to grow
Come on in let your being glow
We come to hear lessons from above
We come to hear "We are Loved"
But most of all we come as friends
To chat to laugh and good wishes send
So won't you join our happy team
Open your heart and follow your dream.

something a little different ....

Heavenly Kiss[12]

The story shall unfold as I crone and wail
Come close my darling as I tell you my tale
A story of long ago when life was bliss
When earth received a heavenly kiss

Dark times where upon the earth as our story starts
God so loved her world she took Earth to her heart
She called upon Mother Earth and Father Sky
The story she told was sadly true making Father cry.

Mother was so distraught she gave a might sigh
into the sky huge molten rocks did fly
Was an awful scene to behold
A story of love, it has never been told.

For many days Father cried
For many days Mother sighed
Then god once again spoke
He said it was time he gave Earth a poke

To the earth he gave a Heavenly Kiss
From that day forward the earth was full of bliss
Peoples of earth were joyful as happy
Not a single being was sad or snappy .

This is a song which can be sung to the tune;
The Rose by Bette Milder

Look Into My Heart.[13]

Look into my heart, there's a light there
It's strong and shinning bright.
Look into my eyes, they're clear now
Dark pearls of the night.
Look into my world, It's full of darkness,
mistrust and despair.
I have taken flight now in the cool scented air.

Now my heart is softly beating
It plays a soulful tune.
I can laugh and joke now
With comfort in the room.
My friends have gathered around me,
They hug me with their love.
Prayers of healing find me
With guidance from above.

I'm am blessed to know you
Believe me this is true.
Once I was lost and lonely,
My anger forever grew.
Forgive me for the troubles,
I have to you brought.
They are all behind,
Good lessons they have taught.
I send you all hugs now,
And thank you very much.
May rest calmly and
Know the angels touch.

Depth of Blue...[14]

From the depth of oceans blue
Songs and wisdom, perfectly true
We need to hear them from within
Messages from our friends with fins

Giving us warnings oh so clear
Of discomfort we shall bare
Our power has changed our fate
They're telling us it is not too late.

Tune in your hearts and light its flame
This is truth, it's not a game
We need to change, we need to fast
We need to repair if earth is to last.

Harmony, love and they share with joy
Playing gracefully with a rubber toy
These aqua souls of beauty are here for a reason
The message is clear... This is our season.

Thought for the Day[15]

May tomorrow's dawn bring new
meaning to your path.
May today's sunset fill you
with joy that lasts.
May you find friendship
where ever you turn.
May you know the love of spirit
with each lesson learnt
CEL © 2005

Friendships[16]

May dawn bring joy of a new day
May sunset be your reward as upon your pillow you lay
May friendships be found the last the years
The kind that knows how to pick you up when your shedding tears
The kind that is golden and grows with love
The kind that is blessed from Heaven above

THE STILLNESS[17]

A candle lit and body still
Colourful images my mind does fill
Gentle music creates the scene
Crystal waters and forest of green.
My body relaxes and I go deep
I'm within my but not asleep
And in this stillness I can find
The greatest movement --- The subtle mind.

PURE LOVE[18]
We are not alone you and me
We are not alone can't you see?
We are not alone dear Sisters and Brothers
We are not alone children, fathers and mothers.
Surrounded in pure love and light
Our guides are with us morning, noon and night,
They honour our earthly karmic task
With guidance available should we ask.

TAROT[19]
78 cards in my hand I hold
Laying them in patterns the story unfolds
A little of your life that's been
Painting a picture of today's events and scenes
Behind your futures door we peak
For answers to questions that you seek
The journeys is long with many turns
With knowledge and understanding so you learn
The story is told and the cards all read
You ponder now on what's been said.

FALCON[20]

Higher and higher my falcon flies
Casting clouds threw ice blue skies
Wings outstretched he catches the breeze
Simple control he flies with ease
My truth lies in letting go
Freedom of spirit, let it flow

Why, why don't you see
I am falcon, I am free
No shackles tie me down
I wear not a puzzled frown
All answers are within your heart
They have been since journeys start
Reach within there you'll find
The key ..... to the quiet mind.

THE QUEST[21]

Old of spirit, young at heart
Questions, questions from the start
The hard way is the course for you
Lessons learnt, tried and true.
To spirit, is the way you turn
A quest for understanding and to learn
Within you the answers are
Still you seek them from afar
We honour you “Soul Blessed”
And join with you on your quest.

MARIGOLD[22]
Glowing, growing shinning bright
Won't you pick me on this night?
Warmth and love I share with you
I'm pastel orange a joyful hue
The essence of life within me I hold
For I am flower, call me marigold.

I’M NAKED[23]

I'm naked and I am proud
I'm naked I say it aloud
But this is no sex filled scene
It hardly rates as R18
But I am naked none the less
Yes I am naked I do confess
Naked in truth before you I stand
Full of love I give you my hand
For naked I am and not on a shelf
For I am me my naked self
I looked within and found my way
I thank my spirit this and every day
For in spirit I trust and can depend
To find new people to be my friends.

OUR MOTHER EARTH[24]

Live in spirit, that's the way
"You're mad you fool! ", Well what the hey
We know what we're doing and where we're going
Let's all get our energy flowing.
Utopia is a wonderful dream
With beauty and harmony often seen
But here on earth we have a task
"Heal me please" our Mother asks
Destructive logging with power and might
Has our mother in a terrible plight
Rippling her children from her grip
Piles of lumber aboard are shipped
Our Earth Mother rocks and quivers
With every blow the loggers deliver
It's time for us to take a stand
It's time for us to heal our land.

THE MASK[25]

The morning sun takes my hand
Spreading warmth across the land
A new day has broken through
Changing the darkness to a sky of blue
I take a moment to bless this day
Eyes closed I begin to pray
Beauty and wonderment you share with me
Thank you for the sunshine that lets me sees
How will I fill the hours I ask?
How can it be done without my mask?
I was fearful to show all that I am
The human - the being we call man
For so long the mask I used
To hide from a world tainted and abused
No longer shall I hide
I am going to take it for a ride.

THE NATURE FURY[26]

The elements help us all
Spring, summer, winter, fall
Nature’s fury is hard to explain
Earth, wind, fire and rain
Riding winds on painted sail
Snow capped peaks we try to scale
Asking the oneness for gentle rain
To fall on earth and grow our grain.
Rivers flood and forests burn
Landscapes change at every turn
She coughs, trembles and sheds her tears
While expert's try to soothe our fears.
Our Earth doesn't need this pain
Mankind has left her scared and lame
Our task is to heal and mend our ways
Living in peace each and every day.
Open your mind and your heart
With love and kindness we'll make a start.
Reverse the destruction, mend and repair
We can heal our earth should we care.
Spring, summer, winter, fall
The elements help us all
Earth, wind, fire and rain
Nature’s fury is hard to explain

NATURES BEAUTY[27]
Peaceful, calm the forest once green
Water so clear, air so clean
Seasons changes and winter nears
Trees and shrubs shed their wares.

The wind tosses the leaves around
A golden carpet fills the ground
The artist sits immersed in the view
Browns and reds on sky of blue

Upon the canvas stark and bare
Each stroke applied with loving care
A picture of beauty, nature’s best
Finished now the artist rests

Cleaned tools are packed away
To bring them out another day
To capture the beauty he has done well
But alas he can not paint the smell.
