Bee-ing Playful

.

I saw a sight the other day

That almost blew my mind away;

A fat little bee buzzed past my face

And zipped across to take his place

Upon a velvet rose petal,

Then, such a dare-devil was he,

He dove into the yellow pillow

Head first and rolled from side to side

Coating himself in golden dust

And, as I watched him mesmerised

He jumped and rolled again with glee

Both playfully and joyfully before he

Flew away and left me smiling happily.

Feelings

Post No. 799

Feelings

.

Hot and cold

Shy or bold

Hidden from all

Until they pall

Part of our soul

But not the whole

Hard to explain

Hard to express

Contagious or no

Infectious or yes

Translate them

Transpose them

Words often fail

To express or explain

Our joy or our pain

Faith

.

You and I ~

Earth and sky ~

We can fly

Higher than high…

To the mountain peak,

To the very top,

The roof of the sky,

Drift here and there

On the draughts of air,

Dance in the blue,

Me and You on the moon…

You lift me up

On the golden rays

Of the rising sun

You take my hand,

Make sure I understand,

That faith and trust are one.

Tears

.

The soul weeps

Tears of joy and tears of sorrow

From the heart of darkness

And the heart of light.

You dry my tears afore the morrow;

Before the dawn appears

You make it clear that You are here,

Fulfilling the promise of Your birth

On this earth

As the light of the rising sun

Spreads its wings and the shadows

Take flight into the night.

Living Life

.

We know we’re alive when we…

Feel the heartbeat, the throb and pulse of life,

The joy and pain, the sunshine and rain of life,

Squeeze the last drops to savour the flavour.

Living life, loving life…

The good and the bad, the happy and sad,

En-Courage others to do the same,

Inspire them to honour His name

And raise our spirit to a higher plane…

Body and Soul

~~~

My body feels drought and rain

My soul feels joy and pain

But some live in the clouds

Behind chemical shrouds

Afraid to display

Heartache and grief

In the mistaken belief

That emotion disclosed

Is weakness exposed

A Glimpse

A Glimpse

.

I had a glimpse of tomorrow

Alight just over the skyline

Only joy, no more sorrow

Out of reach

Unless we breach

The confluence of time

The Sun

.

The sun winked

through the smallest

gap in the cloud.

It blinked and shone,

and laughed out loud,

then, smiling broadly,

rays of joy reach out from above

touching the earth

with His message of love.

Freedom

.

You have freed my psyche from the bindings

from restraints that held it back

i can feel the thrill of pleasure

welling up to overflow

within my soul

Other Worldly

 .

On the cusp of sleep

Thoughts, imagination, inspiration

Wander up hill and down dale.

Recollections… introspections… meditations…

.

Material obsessions:

Baubles bright in the sunlight,

Earthly jewels, possessions,

Worth nought in the afterlife.

.

Treasures of the soul:

Love, joy, contentment,

Life-energy spiritually whole,

Surrendered to His control.
