Sandcastles

Sand on my feet,
I walk into the ocean,
to find the sea shells,
the size of my heart.

Rejuvenated,
I become a child,
in the hands of the ocean,
where I free fall,
in the arms of love.

With bucket and spade,
I create sand castles,
until my dreams,
in purple shades,
send bubbles,
into the world.

There I fly,
in the arms,
of my inner child,
until a coral reef,
gives birth,
to my young heart!

New Rays of Hope

New Rays of Hope

Trees dance in the rain,
as a sparrow shakes his feathers dry,
on the soft sound of the piano keys.

The hot steaming liquid in my mug,
reminds me of the fireplace at home,
but the beach is to inviting to leave now.

Storms on the shore take my tears,
and send them along with the wind,
in bittersweet love letters to far away places.

Small towns are like warms blankets,
keeping the cold out of the weary heart,
where it begs for love to find her.

As an artistic flow of creativity touches me,
I can only take what I have left in my hands,
for it to find a way to come surging out.

With a pencil in hand I sketch the night away,
for the morning to arrive in words and pictures,
that align with the Divine connection with my soul.

For a short moment longer the sea rages on,
and I witness the dark clouds disappear in the distance,
only for the rainbow to whisper the new rays of hope.

New rays of hope
