Creativity

Creativity is many things
of beauty nature
people scenery
its putting your thoughts
together, also your dreams
sharing your talents
reflecting, writing
like a kaleidscope of colours
a ripple effect we have on each other
sharing inspiration
like a glow of a candle
creativity is individual
yes its many things
but its something you cant see
because its inside each one of us
a light that shines from within
a warm soft glow
thats eternal
yes creativity is so many things.

tears of rain

tears of rain

falling like tears
painting images, reflections
diamond drops
sadness, joy
colour rainbows
glass shining
cool breeze
clouds like floss across the sky
tears from above
touching nurturing
watering growing
tears of love, sadness
echoing sounds
warmth reaching
rain falling like tears
feelings wonder
shining rains tears turn into
rainbow sunshine glowing inside
tears to joy.

friendship treasures
hearts reflections
come back to you
Echoes....

lost in lilac

lilacs surround me,
colour, perfume,
fill my senses,
peace touches me,
I see visions of the long
road ahead,
covered with lilacs, and rose petals,
intertwined with lavender,
potpourri, the scent
really infuses me,
a gentle voice from above
whispers to my inner being,
surrounding me with hope,
holding my hand along journey
leaving my imprints as I go,
yes, Im lost in lilacs.

next summers apples

Its winter, alls quite,
the apple seeds are
being quitely nurtured,
deep inside,
touched by the coolness,
I see a mist from my window,
but a sweet soft whisper
says, look again,
you will see the apples
there just waiting,
for the coming summer,
then you will see the ripest fruits
of the Spirit, being watered and nurtured
so when you look out your window,
there you will see next summers apples.

Healing Rain

Healing rain,
infuse me,
touch me,
in the dry places inside
cleanse the scars and pain
I reach for you
may I hear your voice
healing rain
answer my prayer.

Firey Background

The setting sun,
blankets the sky and clouds
with a blaze of colour
an artist mixing
paint on a picture
silhouettes trees
against the firey background
as the sun sets
the colour becomes faded
enveloping the artist's picture
in a curtain of darkness.
