Watching my children as they grow and learn

Doing things for themselves

Going places alone

Watching my children turn into teens

Gaining maturity

Learning of life

Watching my children mature into adults

Proud of their accomplishments

Their choices and lives

Shh,

listen to sound of the world turning, moving through space, endless motion

Shh,

feel the energy, pulling you down, into the soft earth

Shh,

close your eyes and drift into the unknown.

Rebirth...

Life,

slowly awakening from a winter slumber,

the sun,

melting away the chill of the snow and ice,

nature,

busy with it’s tasks of creating new life,

Spring,

the miracle of rebirth.

The wind, blowing gently, leaves across a blanket of green grass,

The cool air, crisp to the sound of leaves underfoot,

Sun, beating down, trying to warm the earth and it’s inhabitants,

Spring, emerging from a long lingering winters sleep.

The smell of clean linen, wind blowing the sheets like dancing ballerinas,
Rain falling from the sky, droplets of gold from a blue
and white dream,
Falling back into a soft and flowing bed of wheat,
rushing the fields edge like a tide.

A secret...

I hear your voice and in me

starts a dream so deep and true

and though the people aren't the same

I know it's me and you

The past you must remain within

our lives are not the same

but in the dark when we are one

we'll always play the game

The passion deep within my soul

burns only for your touch

a secret I can never tell

why does this hurt so much

This lie I live in fear of

should the truth be ever known

into the arms of another

and passion that was stolen
