One Wish ~ A Poem



If called upon to make one wish
A plea required before the fall of night.
My wish would be for one of truest love
And wisdom to cherish this plight.

A love transcending all boundaries
Escaping all measures of time.
Forever in perfect rhythm
A faultless and melodious rhyme.

A love without expectation
Strings or roles defined.
A song of eternity, a sweet harmony
The gold resonance of voice refined.

The rainbow of no ending
Clouds silhouette softly against perfect blue.
A gentle breeze wistfully carries us
Beyond what we once thought we knew.

You may think this wish a folly
A fairytale or something I ask you to do.
But my wish is to find this love within me first
May it have nothing to do with you.

What I Look for In a Day....



Beauty in the morning sunrise;
another chance at a brand new day.
The fresh smell of a soft rain shower ;
Loving all that comes my way.

Enjoying another person;
For exactly who they are inside.
Knowing I can truly be myself;
The feeling there is nothing to hide.

The "knowing" I'm never alone;
the faith that grows each day.
Listening to someone else's heart;
Hearing what they are really trying to say.

Laughing at nothing;
Singing just because I want to.
Sitting quietly if it suits me;
Having nothing I need to prove.

So these are a few things I cherish;
The things I look for in a day.
How much more could a person ask for
With all the blessings God sends my way.

Catch & Release ~ A Poem (Double Etheree)

Written at the request of a friend for this incredible picture. I love to fish simply for the stillness it brings.
