Hope, Kindness and Love united (poem)

01 Dec

Hope, Kindness and Love united

There is always a way through the thick and the thin.
There is always a path where tomorrow can win.
No matter how much around us is torn apart;
Within each of us, a new tomorrow can start.
Within each of us, we have all that we can need.
We have hope, kindness, and love, with which to succeed.
Deep within ourselves, everyone of these live,
And bringing them all together, lets us forgive.

With hope, comes a torch to show us all that can be,
Bringing light back into our lives, letting us see.
With kindness, you can help others stand up once more;
Help their wounds to heal, to become strong like before.
With love, comes the gift of sharing all in your heart,
Giving to others your love, never more apart.
Hope, kindness and love, each have their own part to play.
Uniting them all, will let the world find its way.

Tattered sails upon the mast (poem)

29 Sep

Tattered sails upon the mast

The tattered sails upon the mast,
Too many storms they have sailed through.
They tell of a turbulent past,
Of the journeys towards the new.
Tossed and turned on the ocean,
This ship has travelled far and wide.
Always the ship is in motion,
On seas with no safe place to hide.

Yet there are harbours to be found,
A safe haven to recover.
But soon the ship is outward bound,
To see what it can discover.
Those tattered sails all still flutter,
Maybe they won’t win any races.
But through life what does it matter,
If they get you to new places.

Do I have the perfect life? (poem)

08 Sep

Do I have the perfect life?

Do I have the perfect life? a question I asked myself today,
But then upon reflection, just what does perfect mean anyway?
Does a perfect life mean that I can buy anything that I see?
Or that I already have everything that I need for me?

Is a perfect life something that is just hiding around somewhere?
That if I knew just where I should look, would I find it waiting there?
Could someone else find my perfect life, a present they can then give?
Or must I look to others and their lives, to see how I should live?

But why wish for what others have! Try to mimic all that they do,
For I have found that just being kind is enough to get me through.
Being kind to others can bring a joy, a richness deep within,
And being kind to myself brings me peace, when life is hard to win.

Am I going backwards or forwards?(poem)

21 Jul

Am I going backwards or forwards?

Am I going backwards or forwards? I do not know.
Would looking upwards or downwards show a way to go?
Some ways look clearer, while others are fading from view.
Should we look back at the old? Or consider the new?

So many times through life it has not been too easy,
When I find a place of calm, it starts to get breezy.
When I find a time of peace, hoping that it will last,
The rhythm of life starts beating its drum and strolls past.

From all of this, I am coming to the conclusion,
That a place of harmony is just an illusion.
That a life in pursuit of perfection is unreal,
So just what should my emotions start trying to feel?

Only this moment is real and all that it contains,
When it comes to the past, just its history remains.
When it comes to the future, it always begins here,
And only towards the future can we ever steer.

Just stand in this moment, for it’s here that we belong,
From this moment in life, our future starts strolling along.
With all of life’s confusions, tip them out of your mind,
With all the anger of the past, just leave it behind.

You are who you are! All that you need is found within,
Inside your own heart is where your future can begin.
Within yourself, kindness and love can be found today,
When your life gets too confusing, let them guide your way.

There is always tomorrow (poem)

26 May

There is always tomorrow

There is always tomorrow, for time never stands still,
If today cannot find a way, then tomorrow will.
If today’s going nowhere and your past cannot guide,
Tomorrow brings a light from which today cannot hide.
It may seem very dim and almost out of your sight,
Just hold onto hope, for tomorrow carries its light.
Just look to the future, it begins every day,
Within every tomorrow there will be a way.
Let tomorrow’s hope guide you, when life’s going nowhere,
Just look into your heart, tomorrows light shines in there.
