Peace

Soft and tender the world goes white
Pray from within, for the answer is there
Close your eyes, calm your mind
Find the vibrations flowing inside
Empty your head, let the thoughts go away
Clean your heart, the Lord has to stay
Fleeting doubts and emotions disarrayed
Unsure you maybe, yet its right not to sway
Powers of love, more than words
Actions so gentle can tremble the world
Watch with your eyes shut and quiet
Let the Universe take you over from the dark
Shine so bright then you will for sure
Showers of love will flow to endure
Cleansed within you, truth will sustain
Peace settles in, for eons to stay

Smile

An upward tilt of lips
Sparkle lighting the eyes
Slow relaxing of the face
And you have a smile!
A Small wonder but full of humor
Simple pleasures make you turn over
Carefree, cheerful, happy you feel
A smile covers all the miles
Warm and fuzzy it makes you feel
Better than wine for winter’s heat
Moments of quiet inside it is
As a smile pulls the lips to please
Scary the feature of a smile
Is its contagious, lights everyone’s eyes!
Brave are those who take it serious
To make people smile as their business
Love and laughter not easy to spread
With tougher times forgotten fast
A task we need to do and add
A tilt of lips up may help us last!

Dream

Life was not good for John
Things seemed to rock his world around
Played by rule he did right
But somehow things never went his way
Closed his eyes John did pray
To Lord to forgive all his mistakes
Prayed harder he did everyday
Hoping that his dream would be made
Testing times they say are always
Elders, experienced all alike wait
Patience is the key to this juggle
Nothing works more than to stay
“Face the turbulence with all your strength”
Said his Mom, wife and friends
“Don’t bend and give in so soon
Life is too short to give up its joy” !
Tis easy to dream and give up fast
Winner is the one who always lasts
Through the tide through the storms
Fighting quietly holding the sail
Like a normal soul John lost his way
Deterred a little swayed away
Nature though reminds gentle or hard
For John the reminder came in a voice so loud
Dreamt he did of the shining light
That guided the wise men to the Lord
Heard he did the voice of hope
Calm, resounding, firm and clear
“Don’t lose hope, don’t lose faith
Dream your dream, fight your way
Lead the path that is written for you
Watch the signs as I talk to you”
“Wise and strong you have the key
To make your dream come true
Calm the inner strength to toil your way
Use love as your balm to reach the goal”
Peace filled in John at dawn
Calm descended like a ray of morning light
Direction he found in the dream finally
Ready to plod for his dream strongly…..
