Live Thy Beauty,

Fly, like a butterfly,
On wings so light,
In constant flight
Smiling with wondrous cheer,
For you are loved, my dear.

Drop your hair like a luscious mane,
Swing it wild with your head help high,
You maybe indeed so vain,
But who cares!
For today it is your show
Dance and sing and laugh as on the road you go.

Feel like a rose,
In beautiful repose,
Dress in color that would never die,
With the passion that you feel inside.

Remember that if we are to live this life
Do not hide,
Just burst forth with thy ardent beauty,
Crash life’s party,
It is to you,
A simple duty.
Just simply live
Thy beauty.

Sunlight upon my cheek,
Makes me feel love, makes me weak,
For a new feel of joy as it rests,
Silently born within my humble breast.

With the glowing warmth of dawn,
Another grieving night was gone,
And as the lonely bird did rise,
High, oh high, in the endless skies,
I pray for love to live, and grief to gently die.

Fast in the breast of the winsome dove,
Rises the spirit of endless love,
For in the breath of the growing dawn,
Love is once more, truly born.

To face another endless day,
Creating hope along it’s way,
Let God in his mercy grant, Oh grant me..
The Hope, The Heart, The love,…
And as my heart sings of this love so given
In  a single breath in the warmth of heaven.

THE FIRST FLAKE.

The snow,
So gentle and new,
Like a birth,
Do bring me mirth,
and take away, oh take away
The hurt,
This world did give,
and place a flake of love
So we may gently live.

So beautiful and light
You glow with purity
So bright,
Caring, sharing
Unknowing
You fall
Innocence from heaven
given
To wash away the storm
In spite of it all.

A sign of new life
you float ad float
so light in flight
Inspire my heart
So I too can be
a part
Of this ever loving spirit
that lies dormant
Living and dying
Sheltered in my heart.

With your arrival today
Dear flake
so simple and yet….
Please let me learn to be born
a new
like you and be free
to love in spirit and in truth
as you do
with the love of God
within my breast
Let me too live
simply
and gently
with truth and love and rest.

From the series ” Poetry For the Spirit “

I am a cat,
Now fancy that,
with a tail as long a a kite !
I guard my home
So that non could roam….
Strong and Tall,
Up on the wall,
I look below,
On lowly beings,
And swish my tail,
For I am queen.

Prrr I say,
just love having life my way.

I am told I am mean and clean
and cute sometimes
How I can be,
All of that and more
It must be my flair
My supreme air,
How beautiful my fur must be
As I lick it down for all to see.

With my pretty fluffy coat,
I sit and sit and gloat.
I know it’s foolish pride
But I love the way I look
when I glance in that pool of dew
I feel so pretty
Oh so pretty.
I know I must sound so vain,
But it should not cause you pain.
For I am a cat
Just fancy that.

Now as you may know
I was born to endure
So not a peep
as I must creep
Amidst the ruddy thorns
To catch the poor unsuspecting mouse
Who thinks my turf can be his house !!!!

Nonsense I say with my tail all array,
Fluffed to the hilt
With my tail in a tilt
As I spy, before I pounce.
For I shall guard my own,
From creatures so unknown
and besides my looks I have to say
I am great in every way.
For I am a cat….
just fancy that!

( poetry of the soul )

Gentle love
Gentle thoughts,
Gentle deeds.

Build my spirit,
Heal my heart,
Give me wings to rise high
with great spead.

Never more
To hurt, and cry
Never more
To make another
Deliberately

Die.

Why?
When all of creation
Doth sigh.
We are only passing by

In time…

Till we reach the better place
Filled with grace.
So give me a heart
That is healing and
wise.

But mostly
filled with beauty
and kindness
as a new born child.

I wish this every
morn.
To be fresh and ready.
and reborn.
In spirit let me be
Clean and pure, tender

God….

Like Thee.

Dearest God today
Give me some joy along life’s way.
Keep my heart away from pain,
and let me not shed tears in vain,
Let there me a simple song
That warms my heart within
and let it keep my lonely heart
Full of love, away from sin.
Let my words today be pure
Like a sound of a distant bell
and as the winds of pain does storm
hold me close within your arms.
and to me some lovely little story tell.
Let me count my blessings fine
as I think of you today
and as the dark doth come tonight
let me love you through the light
and deep into the night
But most of all dear God today
Look to me from above
and grant me this one single wish
the power,
The gentle Power to Love.

If I could dream.
With childlike emotions
endless, falling, stars that will simple be.
Beautiful and true just for me.

If I can yearn
For all the peace of gladness
For hunger to abate
and simplicity be

If I can love
again through all the changes
and help someone
each day
with sincerity.

then I will be simply,
better, kinder and somehow wiser
In spite of it all and even in spite of me.

So I dream
Just let me dream
now and forever.
Eternally.

Not everything in life is always beautiful or fair.
However, how we handle it can simply get us there.
To where to want to be.
Simple, we will see.
Protect our hearts from anger,
Embrace Serenity.

If I could be like a little bird today,
Fly high in the sky,
I would drop little bits of love
From the heavens above.
And be

Loving, kind and giving,
free,
From anger,
That is how I would love my heart,
My Spirit,
My Soul
to be.

There is always something beautiful about the writings of a poet. I am always truly amazed at what beauty and wonder they can make out of some simple words just strung together.

Today we look at the work of another anonymous poet, who stole my heart for just a moment. I am sharing this with you now.

GIVE ME A HEART
what is felt is never seen or heard but has a character just of the spirit and the spirit alone
Dilani Diva

WORDS ! Such wonderful sounds that fills the air like the magic of the morning dew. Amazing these things called words that you and I so easily embrace. we sing we laugh we shout we cry ! How beautiful is the sound of , Love peace and forgiveness and yet how cruel are some words like, hate, kill and crucify…. even idiot.
How easily we can forget the power of our own words. The creating of the spirit as we speak. How easily are we all drawn to doing one better than the other.

Today let us feel, hear and speak the words that build nourish and nurture.
Sometimes we only hear what we think others are saying. Specially when it comes to our relationships. We often say “ what is the point, I am blue in the face for trying, he never listens to me”- hmmm and so may it be that it is so.
Words are tough things that we use to Conway our inner thoughts and feelings eloquently. However they are the instrument of peace power and love.

Let us not quite trying. Let us not throw in the towel, let us not walk away angry ( although COOL DOWN breaks, can be helpful )

Perhaps if we wait to listen, then we can hear beyond the language of the Words – To the language of the Heart…..

Silken Sounds.
by Dilani Diva

Melody, let my mind create and speak,
the wisdom of the kindly one’s
Gently resting kind intent on petals
Softly speaking like the little breeze
rustling now the trees.
Kindly let me embrace again the song of healing
Peace. Grace. Give . Love.
Not longing. Only being.
Simple. yet living and not dying…
For in my words will live the power to be
All loving through time
So sublime.
So grant me in thy wisdom or wise spirit
The humility to be
a smiling gentle word
on that lonely ear
as i fly from tree to tree.
and if you could mold my spirit.
You will surely set me free.
