Here I go again…
So, I keep finding these amazing poems (some of them my own) and I keep thinking, ‘oh man, that would be GREAT for L:a&a! Too bad I don’t do that anymore…’
Yesterday I continued that thought with another…’why don’t I start again?’
To that question I (after a million reasons why or why not) answered, ‘yes!’ Wooo hooo!
So, here I am!
Sharing my devotion…
to life itself,
to being in the gritty-real of healing,
to finding my own ground,
my own place of joy,
that’s been my life work,
that is my goal!
In poems I find
my home
my ground
my hope
my truth
my joy
my second chances
my new beginnings
my song
my silence
my grief
my healing
my love
my life
my laughter
my tears
my centre
my source
my mystery
my colors
my dignity
my grace
my foolish
my wise
my resistance
my surrender
my revolution
my rebellion
my peace
my place
my faith
my trust
my questions
my serenity
my heroes
my salvation

I’m not sure if this will come back as a daily, but just these new returning-to-this moment is really feeling exciting! 💞
Do you know how long this road?
He cocked his head and asked,
I’ve been to SanTiago – 500 miles gone past
Now I sit here wondering
how long this trip will last
another trip around the sun
I got here pretty fast
Then she said,
Im a long road girl
I don’t count no miles
I’m a long road girl
I just count the smiles
Of all the people
Everyday
Of all the friends
Along the way
That’s all that matters
Matters too
A long road girl
Longing for a view
Do you want to sing a while?
He bowed his head and asked,
I’ve found a tune for playing – a thousand more come fast
I’ve written you a song or two –
that’s how our miles will pass
another trip around the sun
The flowers will bloom at last
Then she said,
I’m a long road girl
I will sing my songs
I’m a long road girl
won’t you sing along
to all the people
Everyday
To all our friends
Along the way
That’s all that matters
Matters too
A long road girl
In love with you
Starshine to stardust
oceans to earth
Songshine to songburst
Filling the sky
Roaddogs to roadmaps
Pathways are paved
Free-falls to freebirds
see how we fly
🎆
