Letter of Hope

My Father Had A Dream...

My father had a dream

a dream of men

a dream to overcome what

he had seen, heard, felt and done.

The dream was

vivid, strong, and true.

It carried him through his years as a sailor.

It filled him up in ways nothing else ever had.

My father had a dream,

a dream of time, endless days, weeks and years

that would send him letters of devotion, of hope, of love.

My father had a dream

that was bigger and louder than anything he had ever imagined.

It was proud and happy and aligned

with his beliefs and truths.

My father had a dream

of blackness, sorrow and sadness, it

swallowed him whole

and allowed him to drown

within his

longing, his growing, his thoughts.

My father had a dream

that became an unending of dreams

one that men hope to never have,

but some inevitably do.

My father had a dream

that became my burden to overcome, to grow out of

and understand

in ways

that not even he could.

My father had a dream

that became a cloud

that shadowed all of our lives

in ways that one could never have imagined.

My father had a dream,

I hope he awakens one day.

I Sit With It

Waves of sadness

overcome with heavy memories

The weight of the world

I carry

And carry

Pain over washes me

to the point of cracking

But I don't

I emerge

Stronger

Healthier

Full of love, gratitude

and Hope

I sit with it

but it is not mine

to keep

Not who I am

It is you

and your box full of darkness -

I hand back to you

For I never wanted

Never needed

Never deserved

Your Pain

My GIFT is to see the heartache

as Surviving

A way to make love and peace

a part of my world.

So today - I remind you

I am strong

I am blessed

I am safe

I am wrapped in loving kindness

I emerge Thankful

for the darkness that allows

brilliant LIGHT

to be my guide.

The Wounded Healer

Breathing in - I am grateful

Breathing out - I offer myself - love

I am grateful

Pain and all

Storm Waiting

My song is beautiful.

I am a maker of peace.

Courage is my constant companion.

Believe that a possibility

is alive.

Leap Fearlessly

Be Brave

HOPE

Dream Big

Love

Always

Gratitude

Each breath gives us life

flowing love

in my minds eye

Ocean Aroma

flowers speak

whispers have found

Silence

Raw Sienna

Layers of LOVE

brushed on
with much kindness

Strokes from each bristle

nudge forward
come forth

truth, honesty and humility

Raw Sienna on the horizon

Reflections of the Soul

Fire wood brightly burns

Ideas fly free

Crystal clear mentality

offer cleansing for my soul

Pure thoughts

mirrored intelligence

Intuition abounds

Heart kept secrets

seep - one by one

Gifts of pure delight.

Calm

Beauty
