Between Christmas and New Year (poem)

27 Dec

Between Christmas and New Year

Between Christmas and New Year,
Let the joy and fun stay near,
Share this moment with kindness in your heart.
Whether it’s for the Lord’s birth,
Or a new year on the Earth,
Spend your time celebrating this new start.

Let this be a special week,
With good times for you to seek,
Just let those good memories come your way.
Go with a friend for a walk,
Or just sit somewhere to talk,
You don’t need a crowd to enjoy the day.

Perhaps split up what you do,
Giving some time just for you,
And giving time for friends here and there.
Catch up with your family,
Going there for cake and tea,
Your greatest gift will be the love you share.

Allow yourself to begin anew (poem)

31 Dec

Allow yourself to begin anew

Allow yourself to begin anew,
Shake off that outdated point of view,
And pluck out those bits that brought to you, only sorrow.

Sweep away those old ideas, like dust,
Clean those dreams that have started to rust.
Open up some space to welcome a new tomorrow.

Let yourself go at a slower pace,
Remembering life is not a race,
That tomorrow will find its own way to where you are.

Pause now and then, reflect for a while,
Remembering what once made you smile,
Find a place where with your memories, you can see far.

What tomorrow brings, you may not know,
But with yesterday, just let it go,
Watch it walk away with the weight of yesterday’s load.

Allow yourself to begin anew,
Prepare yourself for a new life view,
With a light heart, start walking along tomorrow’s road.

A quiet spot of your own (poem)

22 Jan

A quiet spot of your own

A quiet spot far away from the crowd,
Just a quiet place where nothing’s too loud.
Somewhere your life can settle for a while,
Instead of a frown, recover a smile.
A place of calm where your tension eases,
Where your mind can drift to where it pleases.
Somewhere special, where your stress can depart,
A place where you time is ruled by your heart.

A quiet spot where you can take a rest,
To just sit back and see life at its best.
A chance for your inner spirit to renew,
Opening your eyes, enjoying the view.
Closing your eyes, reflecting within,
Letting the dreams of tomorrow begin.
And when from this spot, it’s time to depart,
Tuck a piece of it’s peace within your heart.

The awareness of everything (poem)

15 Jan

The awareness of everything

The awareness of who you are within,
That person you live with every day.
That with you, today’s adventures begin,
That with you, the path of life shows the way.

The awareness of those all around you,
Of the strangers and the friends you will meet.
Of the joy and sadness others go through,
As you pass them by, walking down life’s street.

The awareness of the world where you live,
That sustains you from birth until death calls.
That as well as taking, you learn to give,
That you should help the world up, when it falls.

The awareness of everything there,
Inside, outside, and the world all around.
That it’s up to you to become aware,
To understand and let kindness be found.

The awareness that the future is you,
That in every action, changes start.
Let your awareness guide your own life’s view,
Then towards a better world, play your part.

Time changes us all (poem)

03 Apr

Time changes us all

I am somebody else! I have come to realise this day,
And that with each passing year, I have changed in some way.
That the dynamic person I once was in years gone past,
Can live at a pace that is, well, not nearly so fast.
That this new person within me, that I have just found,
Can find peace in standing still, or just strolling around.

Like the tides gradually shifting the sands in the bay,
So, time gradually shifted me to who I am today.
But the person I once was can still be found deep within,
And without that old me, I would not know where to begin.
For whom I am now, has come from those old seeds that were sown,
And it is from those past journeys, that this person has grown.

Beyond the darkness, a new world comes (poem)

06 Feb

Beyond the darkness, a new world comes

Beyond the far horizon, the sun will return again,
Though darkness be with us now, its shadows will not remain.
These dark times will depart at the coming of the sun,
For always light follows darkness, somewhere the dawn’s begun.

The spinning of the Earth brings to us both darkness and light,
As soon as the darkness begins, tomorrow is in sight.
It may be a while yet before its light and warm once more,
But it is coming, for it has never failed to come before.

Upon the hint of dawns first light, we can begin to see,
The world tomorrow is bringing to us, to you and to me.
It will not be yesterday, for that was a darkness ago,
And what is coming after the dawn, we have yet to know.

The dark night may have been a struggle, so hard to get through,
That the world coming with this dawn, is so different and new.
Perhaps the darkness changed many things, that we are now afraid,
But in this new dawn, love can be found, and a future remade.
