PAGES
~ BERING STRAIT ~
Yesterday's wars stack up like old papers on the floor
Pounding like old knocks upon my door
Breaking like the ocean, washing through my hands
changing this old mountain into sand
You know me by the stories I have made
You know me by looking out through boxes and cages
And its hard to clearly see what's right in ordinary sight
Does the truth filter down through the ages?
We cannot see the end, so here is where we must begin
Tell me, what will we write on these pages?
Life's open road, showing only what it wants to show
Callin' when its time for us to go
Driven by emotion, pushing from the past
Runnin' til our spirit's free at last
Down through history we race across
Borders into empty space we write
A chapter of fable, a line, a trace
Another heart may follow
We cannot see the end, so here is where we must begin
Tell me, what will we write on these pages?

I have been a poet since early childhood -
an avid reader and writer and witness to both
the glory and the horror of life
who lost the spark in my twenties -
(it didn't loose me, though).
In times of deep struggle and rising passion
for understanding the mysteries of life and love,
my Soul and Her determined voice
have cast out a kindling light
and I have soared in that illumination -
beyond the flames,
the grime caked shame,
the clawing jaws of the Saboteur.
Today, I surrender again
to the healing power of
THE GIFT
that will not be wrenched away;
my words are my salvation-
the Art that is their soul-mate
cloaks me in protection.
I am en-couraged!
meet me in that sacred place
that we poets and artists call
♥Heart Home ♥
Spread your
Glorious Wings!
Welcome
all Poets
and Artists
and Lovers
and Dreamers!
