Burgeoning Spring

artwork by Cheryl Kellar

two hearts
 burgeoning  spring 
 bright  blooms bursting  colors 
 soft   moist  petals,  waiting  tulips
we kiss

~

my love
pick me a song
  vases filled endless  love 
 luscious   garden   sweet  melodies
 touch  me

Where the Wildflowers Thrive

Wildflowers by Nikolai Galakhov

where  the  wildflowers   thrive   magic  resides
planting seeds in a  rich  meadow  of  green 
warm   mystical  realm,  our  dreams  will   survive 
new  promises  take   root  ,  message  foreseen

traveling  realms,  where   will  the  path   lead 
follow  your heart  it  always  knows the  way 
clearing  wide  path,  pulling  up  strangling weeds
in the  distance,  a  white   horse   softly  neighs

beckoning our  wild   spirit   to   take   flight 
winged Pegasus,  soaring   dark  skies  unknown 
constellations  spark  warm desires of   night 
full  moon,  behold  blue sapphire  crystal   stone 

reaching  heavenward  for  the  golden   ring 
dreamers are reborn, beating  hearts now  sing

May Day

Finland, 1968, photo by George F. Mobley

swift change

turbulent winds

winter's last breath, clouds cry

spring celebration gone astray

may-day

Deer Heart

I am a creature of the land

heart of gentleness free spirit

many seek my mystical powers

listening to cries of each conch shell

carrying their weight upon my back

why, do you feel the need to collar me

look into my dark eyes, feel my pain

hunters come to track me down

camouflage I  hide in tall green pines
sprinting  between dark  shadows

seeing behind the mask of deception

my antlers are strong reaching skyward

would you wound me with your arrows

healing & regeneration my gift rebirth

balance lays in love and compassion

heart of gentleness free spirit

I am a creature of the land 
deer heart..

Within the Mirror View

Dream portal, illuminating mirror

beholding myself deep within your soul

soft reflections of you, my eyes clearer

two  images  harmoniously whole

staring into your eyes dazzling starlight

through the looking glass lies a mystery

crossing a new dimension, we take flight

etched across the heavens, our history

silvery moonbeams, two silhouettes dance

willow drums hum, behind curtains of night

as one slipping into a rhythmic trance

entwined arms & limbs a lover's delight

love shatters boundaries, beautiful view

beyond the horizon,  a glimpse of you

Today I thought of You..

my own picture

Turtles basking in a mid day sun

slow & easy pacing one's steps

soft reflections of life's journey

transformation in cooling waters

recalling warm breath of spring

creating balance, mystical pond

ancient songs,  rattling wisdom

promises of healing & strength

carrying the weight of the earth

grounded during difficult times

hidden door keeper between realms

opening hearts for inner peace

Today I thought of you...
