From the Heart
You watch me from the landscape at the end of the bed
With dots that gently glisten, I’m sure not in my head
I see you when I first wake and in the times between
Dots that seem to join you up, although your not quite seen.
I wish you’d form a little more so I can clearly see
Your face, your eyes and all of you watching over me
I know you come in love and light, that your intent is true
I only wish I was certain, that it is really you.

Daily prompt word – Grain
A grain of sand, a speck of dust,
minuscule pieces of the earth we trust.
Set together, they grow into form,
whole and real, what we see as the norm.
In isolation, their use would cease,
no use on their own to man or beast.
Castles without sand would not exist,
neither would cleaners if dust didn’t persist.
Massed together and what do we see,
the wholeness of earth, we love to see.
I bounce in the street like sunshine,
I roll down your cheek like a tear,
I stir up the trees like a whirlwind,
Then I sweep back home like the sea.
I visit when your sad like a cloud,
I dance when you sing like a bird,
I follow as you walk like a raindrop,
Through life I’m constant, your very energy.
You hold me in mind and lend me your strength,
Propelling me forward by sheer will alone.
I begin now, to recognise and believe in myself,
Strong and empowered by the experience of you.
On my life’s journey, I know you are near.
Your thoughts travel with me, protecting my way.
As attached to your soul by invisible thread,
embroidered like silk and tied with love.
The power of love calms storms, clears the sky.
You prop me up, sensing you tall inside.
Planes held aloft, on the winds of your will.
Deep love brings me home again, safely to you.
