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.
