Mirrors

I look in the mirror,

Looking back at me,

Many faces, many lives,

Reach out through time—

Greet me.

*****

Forgotten memories arise,

Reflections of choices made.

Met with love and forgiveness,

Old wounds heal, scars fade.

*****

Masks removed, no place to hide,

Will we have the courage to rise?

Meet ourselves in the mirror,

Face the fears we denied.

*****

If only you could see

Yourself through my eyes,

You'd see love,

You'd see innocence,

Kindness, compassion,

A gentle disposition.

But if you don't believe

What your heart knows is true,

You'll never see the beauty

Of your own true self—

The real you.

*****

If life is but a reflection

Of our inner reality,

Break through the illusions;

Create a world where

Your heart dances

Light and free.

*****

Enchanted Doorways

Dancing to the rhythm

Of the bright silver moon,

Water sprites celebrate

The arrival of the groom.

******

By the light of the moon,

At the water's edge,

A man watches in wonder

As a maiden emerges 

From its depths.

******

The alchemist weaves

Golden threads of love

Into trees and flowers

Mountains and seas.

Elementals breathe

The magic of love

Into hearts wide open

Ready to receive.

******

Winged instruments gather,

Creating heartfelt tunes,

The songs of the fae echo

Across mountains and valleys

Come June.

******

Beyond the field of flowers,

A spell is cast on high,

The wheel of destiny in place,

A child is born of the skies.

******

Beneath the cherry blossoms

A festive table awaits,

Wee folk raise a glass of cheer

To the bride and groom—awake.

******

The Way of the Rose

Petal by petal

The rose unfurls,

Cosmic spirals

Reveal her pearls.

********

The way of the rose

Compassionate, bright,

A beacon of hope

On a dark, stormy night.

********

Amongst the thorns

A single rose blooms,

The hand of love,

Of joy—renewed,

The hand that guides,

Dispels the gloom.

********

Spirals of love

In an ocean—divine,

Compass of the heart

In turbulent times.

********

Hearts meet, hearts transform,

Time and space no barrier

For the wave of love

And light reborn.

********

Sacred hearts rising

On the wings of a dove,

Heaven's light landing—

The miracle of love.

********

Petal by petal

The rose reveals,

A spiral stairway

Transcending the wheel.

********

The way of the rose

A sacred rite,

The pathway to align

With your divine light.

Love Letters

I wrote you a letter

Straight from the heart,

Wrapped in starlight,

Love's work of art.

*************

I received your letter,

Love's magic spark,

Little bursts of starlight

Embedded in my heart.

*************

In Plain Sight

In your heart, in your soul,

Hiding in plain sight

A story untold.

If you believe, heart and soul,

Billboards light up,

Your path unfolds.

Deep within—a golden bowl

Reveals the truth

Of a love foretold.
