Have you seen them, all the broken...?

Have you seen them all the broken
Passing by you, words unspoken
Needing empathy, needing something:
All their hopes all crashed and crumbling

With great kindness. with devotion
Reach to them.. without commotion..
Speak your healing, speak your friendship
Though they seem a bit eccentric.

In an instant,  in a moment
You can thaw the  hearts all frozen
See the hatreds, see the wounding...
You can heal with words so soothing

Do something.....yourself..

Can you even hear it the sound of them calling...?
People who are broken and people who are falling
Reaching out for kindness and reaching out for care
Searching for understanding and for someone who "is there"

So often we are too busy and we hardly ever see
That around us is an emerging enormous endless sea
Of people who are needing us:  people who are in dispair
But we, with with all our "have to's" can never seem to care..

We have our many agencies our places where they can go
We'll point them in that direction and then they'll surely know
That there is a place for going to, whenever they are down
But would we open our homes up whenever they come around..?

Oh no we're way too busy and our homes are not the place
For people who are broken and without a friend or space
We preach of love and doing things but that is where it stays
For  the actual act of healing them is for another time and place....?

Just be yourself...

Just be yourself that's all you can do
When starting each day and till  it is through
You're only equipped to be who you are
It doesn't depend on others near or far

You'll shine the brightest and be you best
When treating yourself as good as the rest
No need to change  into someone you're not
The chemistry inside is the best you've got.

Each person is wired and configured so rare
That in all the world no other could compare
So stop trying to change, stop being afraid
Of the one you see in the mirror portrayed.

Unique and  special and one of a kind
This is the person inside you you'll find
The blessings uncovered, the freedom you'll see
Will come about by being that most beautiful ..."me"..

Crystals dance upon the trees...

Crystals dance upon the trees
Introducing winter's freeze
Chilly weather's finally here
See the artwork far and near

Like a diadem on a bride
Frosty formations side by side
Create a color pure and white
Draping all with icy delight

Touch them and they'll melt away
All these crystals on display
Beautiful inspiring yes sir-ee
I am loving it:  all I see..

Let the be peace, let there be peace.....

Let the be peace, let there be peace
Everywhere around us: the warnings increase
Fighting and warring and talking unkind
Frightening unsettling challenging the mind.

Turn from the friction:the need to be right
Bow to the other and turn on some light
Harping and nagging and all things unkind
Is causing our unity to quickly unwind

Let the be peace, let there be peace
Everywhere around us: the warnings increase
Fighting and warring and talking unkind
Frightening unsettling challenging the mind.

Powerfully pushing and belittling too
Anything necessary to make sure it's you
On top of the others and above all the rest
Something is wrong with this type of "best"...

Let the be peace, let there be peace
Everywhere around us: the warnings increase
Fighting and warring and talking unkind
Frightening unsettling challenging the mind.

Turn over the calendar and mark a new day
Resolve in your heart to start a new way
Not needing the greatness, not the needing fame:
Make it your goal to undo the other's shame..

Let the be peace, let there be peace
Everywhere around us: the warnings increase
Fighting and warring and talking unkind
Frightening unsettling challenging the mind.

Too much is the violence too much is the war
Time is still ticking to do something more
Remove all the prejudices: the unfairnesses too:
Make it your aim to be the peacemaker most true

Let the be peace, let there be peace
Everywhere around us warnings increase
Fighting and warring and talking unkind
Frightening unsettling challenging the mind.

Where the glow of God comes out

Know you not that you are that temple where the glow of God comes out
It isn't inside of some structured building that the true worship is all about
For it is inside of   of our own inner beingness and inside of each individual soul
That we will find the Infinite Creator Who can give direction and our goal

So while others may be crowding the buildings and passing the collection plate
The true disciple of the Great Eternal is the one who's path the other's debate
"For how can you ever be found an apostle of the One who has given us life
If you don't appear in our circles and accept our teachings with stride?"

Have we lost our sense of our beingness and forgotten the One Who is our All
He speaks to us in the everness and throughout every moment is heard His  call
We don't have to limit our presence to the walls of some hallowed space
For the Infinite is so uncontainable and is found inside of every heart and place..

we have only to come to acknowledge Him in the everythingness that we can see
The air, the plants and the cosmos, the land, the sky and the tree
All that is about and around us and in all that is visible and is unseen
Is the resting place of the Great Almighty the Sanctuary most post most clean
