ENCHANTED
The Rustle of the Leaves are the wind chimes of heaven,
And the cool breeze a charm ever forgave,
A ripple of a stream, a song to be heard-
And the gentle echo or that lonely bird-
Ah! but it is I that will rest and see
How much this earth loves and lives
Just for me.
Would I be its child and nestle in its womb
Or would I pillage its glory and create its tomb
Is it my place in its glory to hurt it’ great might
Or be a part of a great healing – and not of a great fight!
For I chose to be loving and caring today,
I chose to be loyal in a gentle sweet way
As I listen to the rustle of the earthly wind chimes
And lay my soul in its bosom
And my hope with it Lies,
As I pray for anger to dissolve and to die
Come dance the song of life with me
For we live in such beauty and such serenity!
To Mother.
DEAR MOTHER,
You hold the glory and the weight of this world in your hand,
How can I ever thank you!
Words elude me, tears seclude me.
You can make, or break, my world.
You can impress love or pain to my soul.
You alone can make me half, or whole.
For those mothers who nurture, we thank you,
For those mothers abandoned, whose children are taken from you,
Are prayers are with you,
Those whose children have left, In life or death…..
We grieve with you.
For those children who are left behind,
Surely God will provide you with gentle arms to carry you through.
It is those arms who mother with love,
that in the end matter.
Fear not dear mother,
Cry not, dear child.
For someone that is greater than us all, is watching.
You are never alone.
And for those hearts that beat alone today.
Our love, and our hearts are beating with you.
You are NOT alone.
Dear Mother.
Thank you.
Dear Child
We Bless you.
Namaste

An Ode to darling “Mother”
Rocked in those arm’s to gently swinging,
With music of the God’s in my head ringing,
Laughing with you with every breath,
In this life until our death
How beautiful is thy face and arms to bear
This wondrous gift of life to care
This earth has held no other
More loving and precious than you
Oh Mother !
