Guardians Through Time--Black Series--Written Nov. 1, 2014

Images of daylight 

Sun that hurts my eyes

This is what I wake to

In my Dreams.

You in the background

Always there

Holding me

In this Place.

Sounds of Time

Under my feet

They slip away

As I walk further away to you.

This is what I fear

Destiny

Choosing my Path

A map without end.

But how can I be afraid

When all I see is you

My Guide

My Guardian through Time.

Make Me Stay--Black Series--Written Nov 1, 2014

Loud splashes

Around my feet

Make echos of rain

Enough to cover sounds of you.

I wake 

It seems

From a foggy dream 

Your scent all around.

I want to hold you

In that moment

Instinct carries me

Images of you.

I need to feel you here

You say

Next to me

As if that's where you've always been.

How do you know me so well

I say

Know just what will make me stay.

With You--Black Series

The churning winds

Inside of me 

Spin a web 

Of confusion

Some days.

But then

There's you.

A vortex 

Of Wisdom

& 

Calm

Settling 

In my Soul.

This Moment

This Peace

This tiny seed of Doubt

That these final moments 

Of chaos are all that awaits me.

These are what you bring me

Grows steadier

As you come closer

An anchor

A strobe light 

In the seas of uncertainty

I wash myself in.

Your touch

Before you even 

Reach me

This is what I feel

Your gentle touch

In my Soul

A quiet breath 

In my Mind.

Relief

This is what you bring

With you 

Comes 

Hope.

Prelude To You--Black Series

Wings so beautiful

They make me cry
Tears of you
Fall down
My face.

I close my eyes
The pain
Of them
Burning you
Into me
Again.

I hear a symphony

Inside my Mind
In my
Minds eye
I only see
you.

My face stains

My breath 

Comes faster
My voice
A distant
Memory
One I no longer
Pursue.

It's this song 

You play

Inside of me
The vibrations
Fill my
Head
But
I can only
Feel
You.

The cords straining

The violins notes

Echo
Through me
As your
Touch
Caresses what
I fear. 

Reverb 

A perfect pitch

Slowing as I reach higher
Time closes
In
Surrounds me
Only as you
Do.

I open

My eyes
Finally see

What was always
In my mind.

You 

Standing 

In front of me.

Your arms open

Your breath 

In mine.

Music

It seems

Has been
A prelude

To you.

Don't Ever Let Me Go--Black Series

Black 

As the night 

I first 

Saw you.

Deep 

As the pools 

That lay 

At my feet.

Motionless

As the soft caress

I seem 

To feel.

Quiet

As your voice

That always lays

Inside my head.

Gentle

As a the tides

That always seem

To bring me in.

Still 

As the fountains statues

Paying homage

To your Soul.

Patient

As I am

When all I want to do

Is scream your name.

You

As you always are

Inside of me

Don't ever let me go.

Thank You--Veterans Day--Who I think About Often When I write About Warriors On My Blog

As I sit here, & contimplate the day behind me--I think about the Posts & Tweets I've seen today.

And since I don't watch TV anymore--I have to imagine only what usually plays on commercials each Holiday--One more ploy for getting consumers into their stores to buy.

I think of how I spent my day--With an appointment for one of us, a new battery for the car--& unexpectedly--A long nap for myself.

And again, thinking back to the words I've seen in the Social Circles I travel in Online.

Words of praise--Thanks--Memories. 

And--Surprising, I suppose, if you didn't understand these Warriors the way I've come to...Words Of Peace.

Simple Graditude. 

And Hope.

This is what I would want Folks to take with them today...

That Serivice has one Universal Tie--The look in a man's eyes, whether he was a prisoner in a Consintration Camp with numbers tattooed on his arm--To a man who was a POW in a war a Generatioon later, with only his memories to remind him--Their Words are the same...

We weren't special.

We did what we needed to do.

Anyone faced with it, would have done the same.

We are the same, no matter where our battles were fought--Because we were both 'there'.

I know this--Because I saw this moment of recognition between these men with my own eyes--& The words I remember next were mostly unspoken--Words I saw written again today, by another I know--That Peace is hard to come by--That it's precious, & delicate...& Beautiful.

Thank you for that.

#Blog4Peace--What I Learned On My Blog

• #Blog4Peace  
• 
  
• What an amazing Journey...

I shared a Post on my Blog last night, at about 10pmMT, here in AZ USA--Sending it to my personal FB & Twitter Pages, like I do--After seeing a Post on my FB Page.

And I changed my Profile Pics to Dona Nobis Pacem -& My Header Pics to John Lennon, with a quote from "Imagine" --For an International, Global Wide Oppurtunity to share the thought that Peace Is Possible.

I came back to my Blog today--& Discovered that my little Moment of Meditation--Was shared with amazing Folks in 48 Page Views--Google + ed--Recived 11 Comments--Read in 4 Countries--& Found by visiting 3 Blogs, FB, & Google.

These are Folks I've never 'met' before today--& They Reached Out & Shared What They Had...

Community--Encouagement--Inspiration...

Peace.

They shared a concept, as a Child Of The 70's--& Of a Marine & a Hippie--That struggles, in my own Mind & Heart, to find Balance--Contentment--& Spiritual Peace.

This showed me that Commitment To Change--Locally & Globally--Really is still Possible.

And I was Honored to be a part of it.

Plz Visit these Folks--& Be a part of What They Do--

Blog4Peace -- Dona Nobis Pacem -- Grant Us Peace 

12amEST -- Nov 4, 2014 

I sit here in my home, with my family--& Am grateful for all I have--Knowing each day, that it is granted to me not by deserving it, or by my own works alone--I have a life, built on the works & sacrifices of others who came before me--& I say thank you.

Pass on your gratefullness--Your oppurtunities--Your willingness to build a good life for others--

Pass On Peace In Your Heart, Mind, & Actions--Commit To Equality & Compassion--For All Creatures--For All Time.

Guardians Series Part 3.

But, As we all know, This Light is a delicate thing, So easy to be put out, By those who fear it. 

And so, It must be done, That someone must be Created To keep that Light from being Extinguished.

So then, It seems, That the Guardians must be, Niether Human, Immortable, Only Indistructable.

Oh, But even that is not what it seems, For to Feel, To Live, To Breath without End, Is to truly be Alone.

Because, They would tell you, To Love without Boundries, To Give without Thought, To Seek without Promise, Is to not actually Live, But merly to Exist. ...

A Road Map Through Angels,Guardians,&SoulMates--These People In My Mind---AZ Rains,Wings,Roses,Black,&Guardians--How I Got Here On My Blog

A lot of you may recognize some things in my 'new' Guardians Series.

I've told you about These Ppl I See In My Mind & A Paranormal/Historical/SciFi/Romance/Hope&Survivors Series-- & Written about Angels, Guardians, & SoulMates-AZ Rains, Wings, Roses & most recently Black--On at least half of my Blog.

Along with Dragon, Warriors, Hope & Survivors, Special Needs, Mental Illness, LGBT, OTRB, Anipals, & Various ppl inbetween---Who all play roles in my inspiration.

So when you now see the 'new' big labels describing my Poems to you in a new way--I wanted to tell you--That these ppl--Inside the Poetry where I live much of the time--Aren't really new. They're actually who I've had with me for a very long time.

The One I see the AZ Rains Series is from the first book series I started almost 10 yrs ago.

The One I see in the Wings Series is from the second book series I started a few years ago.

Roses I started here a several weeks ago.

And Black--I started this month, here, when I realized who He's always been--& Was ready to show him the way I really see him.

And These Ppl I See In My Mind Series--Those are the real truth--About how 'He' has always been with me.

So there it is--A little road map of who I am--The time line of this Poetic Journey, that for me, has lasted 41 years.

I'm glad you, who ever you are, wherever you're sitting right now, as far as across the world from me--Are here, now--Sharing this part of the Journey with me.

Guardians Series--Intro Part 2

The Special Ones, The Guarded, The Choosen, Their Choosen Ones.

The Ones who need special care, Who in this Place, In this Plane Of Existance, Are vulnerable, Weak.

Oh, But this, This is what only the Blinded see, What is kept from those who don't understand.

Who somehow know Instinctively, That the Choosen Ones, Will change Destiny.

Will bring Light, Into this small Space, Bring Peace into Chaos, Bring Hope. ...

Guardians Series--Intro Part 1.

You, When I think of you, I see you there across from me, as you always were.

How, How did I know you, When I was young, But there you stood.

You know, He looks the same now, As he did back then, Wings soft, Fragil.

How did he do that, Play a role, Keep it to himself, What he could really do.

Touch me across Time, Lean into this Space, Know me, Hold me here. ...

Guardians Series--These People In My Mind--A New Look At An Old Series--A Sneak Peek On My Blog

This is a Book Series I had started quite awhile back--& Started another different Book Series before that, nearly 10 yrs ago.

It was a reaction to being sick for months on end--& yrs off & on later on--Being in a car wreak that totalled it like an accordion--& Off & on from there, just to sort out my own head.

As you can see--I write, because it's what I do. I'm good at being a Mom--& Writing.

And you write what you know.

I write about Survival.

About Hope.

About Change--& About Seeing Another Day.

It seems someone out there understands these things, besides me--As of today, Sun Nov 2, 12:06am--I have 6,032 Pageviews on my Blog.

Remember folks--It's not what what you look like along the Journey--It's about having fun until you get there.
