come take a walk with me

come take a walk with me,
see the world through the
eyes of magic and wonder

a leaf, still, dangling from
its branch, sun infused red,
bright farewell to summer

a dog, running through
a stack of leaves, dancing
laughter in canine form

the pond, sunlight filtered
through leaves, shining
like diamonds on its water

fresh autumn air fills our
noses, makes our lungs sparkle
with the delight of autumn

turn left, turn right, feet
going where the heart leads us
joyfully laughing, peacefully whole

twitter haiku's

Every once in a while I love to sit down behind twitter and write a haiku. 140 characters is perfect for that form of poetry :)

I am not a native english speaker, so I probably screw up my syllables at times, but that doesn't deter me from enjoying this tremendously :)

Here are a few for your reading pleasure.

soft breeze plays with the
willow's leaves, sunlight reflects
on my eyes, sheer bliss

no clue how many
syllables each word has, I
just haiku for fun

phone is not ringing
dell man promised to call
bad for his karma?

writer and yogi

This is a poem I freewrote in a trance last month. I know a female yogi is a yogini, but I am keeping the text as it was written.

Tapping from the same
Source
Muse whispers softly, the stillness
inspires me to find the true self
inside of me. I write, my hand, the
full expression of the yoga inside me,
soft breath flows as if it is, in itself, an asana

Peace
The pen glides over the paper. As I write, still
breeds within me as each word slides onto the
soft cream paper, as if the ink is the water
charging the beach that is my paper.

Compassion
The child inside me, the one who bought a
small book to write her big thoughts in
now can EXPRESS and I see she is,
in truth, my soul

Complete
I am, says the writer
with a smile, the
yogi smiles back
in
stillness
