A poem for the heart.

Expressions of the Heart




open your heart
and you will find
words

words of life
and light
hope and joy
words of darkness
and danger
anger and fear

choose your words wisely
choose life and blessings
and your heart will bloom
like a flower in winter
soft petals scattered like
bright seeds in the snow

let your heart speak gently
light as a feather
the brush of an angel
expressions of love
and gather all the light
into a quiet offering

that can melt darkness
and calmly quell fears
soothing all anger
transforming the tears
into heartfelt expressions
of all you are meant to be

Mountain of Blessings

Hidden Blessings

May your eyes and heart be open to the hidden blessings that are ripe for receiving. 




how many blessings
are richly scattered
across a day in the life
of a single soul

how many times are blessings
multiplied from person to person
across many days
blessings ripe and bursting

a cornucopia of goodness
spilling into hearts and lives
blessing mostly unnoticed
unseen
uncounted

we are people unaccustomed
to the face of kindness
the embodiment of good
walks the earth unrecognized

and the gifts fall softly
through the hands of time
waiting for someone to look
over their shoulder

and gasp, astonished at
the mountains of treasure
sparkling in radiance
just waiting to be received
