Depression No More!
Joy can be found,
When you least expect it.
In an instant,
Love can be discovered.
Two moments of thought,
Can change a life.
A day full of sorrow,
Can become an ectasy of flight!
The Touched Path

The Touched Path
The way is simple at first
Big broad roads
Shady inlets all about
A gentle breeze nestles amongst the leaves
The sun cast rays of hope
Which are scattered at my feet
All is just a step away.
As the road continues
Fallen trees block the path
A sudden mist fills the air
An eerie feeling shudders through the body
Change, the beast not often touched,
Is close to the path
Turmoil and distress,
Struggle and pain are of his design
Yet through the fallen branches and fog,
A new beginning can be seen.
Always searching for the end
Never knowing where it will lead
The sky grows dim, clouds gather
The struggle is now at an end
The road will lead you no more
Times of pressure are leaving,
Peace is stepping forth.
From start to finish
Many footprints were left along the path
Several branches broken
And still many more left untouched
Many detours marked the road,
Ending in the same way
Tiny waters droplets glisten on the now empty path
As if worlds of paradise might now be touched.

Breath of Life

Breath of Life
Haunting shadows flicker
while rays of light slowly dissipate
as they penetrate the many fathoms
Crisp, clear as lead crystal.
Blue like a child’s inkwell.
Waves, white and powerful
remind me of the seas’ energy as they pound at my feet.
Standing on the edge, a click, looking towards the horizon.
Searching for a sign,
a boat,
or just searching?
Whales travel in pairs
as they frolic with a thunderous crash.
Sea air blows sharply in my face
leaving an almost bitter taste of salt on my lips.
I close my eyes and take a deep, strong, breath,
as if trying to become one with this display of nature.
If only for a moment, I try.
To escalate,
to breath new life into my body.

You will find, as you look back upon your life, that the moments when you really lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.
