Poems Chapter One


Tomorrow's Journey


Tomorrow's journey holds an abundance of hope,

step boldly onto the stepping stones and reach into tomorrow.




Help Is Never Very Far Away


No matter how hard the journey

there will always be enough love around you

to enable you to do your very best,

give your very best, and live your very best.

The greatest gift you can give right now

is your love as a mother,

trust in your heart and listen to your instinct.

Help is never very far away.




Behold


Behold, the gift of time

has nurtured the seed of potential

and harvested a feast,

a wealth of love and hope




Make The Most Of Everyday


Make the most of everyday, for every single moment

holds the potential for your happiness.

Learning something new, and meeting someone new,

and in that moment remember that you have received a gift.

What you choose to do with your unique gift is up to you,

but appreciate its power, the power to create happiness

healing and friendship.

Even the simplest act of a smile can bring the gift of hope

and reassurance in a somewhat busy world.

Every moment counts, even when we are sleeping,

our dreams act like maps, inviting and guiding us to venture forth.

So when you next meet your opportunity,

remember to give your smile as the acceptance

of their presence in a sometimes lonely world.



Mystical


The mystical gift of life is called a blessing.




Song


Before a song can be sung

it has to be composed, by the soul.




A Mother's Promise


A mother's promise is to encourage dreams,

affirm achievement, support decisions,

and give freely of her love.




Into My Life


You have brought so much pleasure into my life

that it is almost impossible for me to describe

how special my love for you is.

You are my pride and joy, and richly deserve

all the love and happiness your heart can hold,

not just for one day but for always.




As A Child


As a child you hugged my heart

and kissed my smile.

Now, as you come of age,

I toast your success,

honour your dreams,

and place pride in your future happiness.




Special Messengers


Mothers have special messengers,

they journey on the same vibration of love

that travels to you today.

They are gifted and have much depth,

they feel the same pangs of emotion

and harbour in their hearts

the powerful bond of mother love.

When the waves of my memory flood over you

they will bring strength, and my joy will be their joy,

messages of a mother's love.




Different Patterns


Our lives may be decorated with different patterns,

but the hand on the brush was the same.





Love And Be Cherished


All that God has to offer falls into the magic of your day.

Trust, and be guided. Love, and be cherished.





Joy


Joy is like the unfettered soul of a child

dancing to invisible music.





Space


The space around you was my world,

a place of learning and love.

Now the space around me is your heaven.





Inner Peace


How beautiful is your love for it frees my spirit,

awakens my desire, and fills my soul with inner peace.





Poems Chapter Two


Birthday Wishes


Birthday wishes to celebrate an abundance of memories,

a trail of achievements, and a legacy of love.




In The Years Of Our Love


Thank you for being my friend, for getting my heart to race

with the excitement of our shared plans,

for believing in me and allowing me to live my dreams,

for teaching me the lessons I have yet to appreciate,

and for the forgiven moments, but above all else

for the laughter in the years of our love.





My Soul Melted


When you danced with my heart

my soul melted into your body.





Trust In Your Destiny


A carpet of respect awaits your leadership

as you take hold of the baton.

Have no doubt that this post was meant for you.

Step up and announce your arrival,

seek out the smiles and trust in your destiny.





Magical Rewards


Overcoming so much so soon has challenged your every step.

But with a strong sense of perseverance

you have made your journey a unique success.

Your achievements have been many,

and the happiness you bring to others is immeasurable.

Your future plans are to be embraced

with the love of those who know and come to know you,

because brave hearts deserve magical rewards.





A Special Seashell


Shells on the seashore clustered but a few,

I found a special seashell, exceptional just like you.

I found a special seashell hidden just from view,

a gift from the ocean, especially for you





A True Friend For All Time


You have a special way of giving,

and a special way of caring.

You've enriched times of celebration,

and shared close memories.

Flawless with good intention,

your friendship has nourished my soul,

a true friend for all time.





A Special Dad


A continuity of your time and support makes you my rock,

and gives me my foothold on life.

Your belief in my dreams and my achievements,

are just some of the reasons that make you such a special Dad.





Treasures For All Time


The most beautiful jewels sparkle,

the most meaningful words remembered,

offerings of love,

treasures for all time.





The Start Of A Brand New Day


When faced with loneliness remember

every soul has a guide,

every stranger has a friend,

put your faith into tomorrow's springtime,

when frozen rivers will be free.

Prepare to build strong foundations

to possibly find a new way,

to rest in the harbour of the moment,

to sleep through the storm in the bay,

to notice the beautiful sunrise,

the start of a brand new day.




Think Of Me


The smallest treasure

simple and pure,

harvest from the sea

gaze upon its beauty,

and always think of me.





Warmer Days


Cloudy days do roll over.

Believe, warmer days are just around the corner.





Fulfilment


Fulfilment enters the heart at sunset

when calmness befalls the day,

when the rush becomes the evening,

when the seeker kneels to pray.





A Moment in Time


Releasing myself slowly, uncoiling,

and melting into the moment of meditation.

Vibrations of love and peace I bring to myself,

incense burns into my intimate space of memory.

I smile as I remember moments in the past,

My innocent child who grew into this woman.

As if by magic I have arrived,

travelling not alone but with you, my Angels, in disguise.

I did not know it, but yes, the more I surrender to my soul

the more I feel the change of love and serenity.

With my pain cooled and my anxiety worn away,

temptation is no more.

Time is sweeping me along,

your legacy of love feeding my every need.

Like magical dust the feeling of belonging settles upon me,

as the sun pours into my life,

and my cloak of happiness overwhelms me.

It is now time to stop and smell the roses.




Know My Love


Just knowing that you are safe

and on the road to recovery

is all I ask in my silent prayers,

and that you will always know my love.

For through our likeness of ways

you will travel beside me for all my days.
