TO BLESS LIFE’S CLUES

TO BLESS LIFE’S CLUES

May discovery yield gifts surprising.
May revelation inspire and guide soul’s paths.
May hints of divine touch nerves of insight.
May colors of love give sight to blind eyes.
May a simple notion be recognized for the enlightenment it brings.
May challenge refresh wit’s ability to seize on ideals and own them.
May “Life’s Clues” bless mind, body and spirit
as full living spreads through all the day.
 ~ o’hOgain

TO BLESS FRUIT

May surprise embrace fond hope as unseen manifests. May the goodness called “fruit of the spirit” arrive in health and harmony. May seasons of fruit be received with gentle witness. All love joy peace patience kindness generosity faithfulness gentleness self-control have seeds, may seeds grow, intertwined to yield abundant of life.

May acceptance bind fruit to action, internal judgment, external touch. May fruit’s purpose in bearing seed replenish heart, mind and soul. May lovely fruit feed, yes fuel, each step along journey’s mystery.

only a smile

lighten the heart,

chase away blues,

only a smile

win a friend,

lift the spirit,

only a smile

build an intensity,

encourager the weaker,

only a smile

   

point it this way,

joy for the day,

only a smile

what i know

I know I feel something within, deep inside,

changes, souls mantle shifting - inner tectonics unwind

or collide, growth passes withering, death exchanges life

there is a solid gratitude, thankfulness core

love's harvest arrives, lavish vibrations

happiness splits bone marrow

life wins again

it's momentary

It's momentary ~ It's eternal

It's microcosmic ~ It's galactic

 It's a song ~ It's a dialogue

It's a stretch ~ It's a contraction

It's a shout ~ It's a whisper

It's an announcement ~ It's a secret

It's loving warmth ~ It's cool refreshing

It's oceans ~ It's babbling brook

It's shared ~ It's a heart's good gift for one

It's a kiss

memory

Braced ~ Hopeful ~ 

We steeled our hearts ~ 

The aftermath came ~ 

Tears ~ Heartbreak ~ 

Steeled hearts soft and warm again.

exclamation points

every dart hits soft 

flesh mark, accent, force, 

inflection, piercing,

all the way

through
 You Are Adored!!!!!

Warm Love

 

warmth of love bless you, 

warmth of love shine through you today, 

warmth of love to those in desperation, 

warmth of love reach out with favor.

may you be refreshed

May this be a day bringing refreshing,
 

starting from deep within, 

may you be refreshed,
 

with the first conscious breath of the day, 

may you be refreshed,
 

with the first light accepted by the eye, 

may you be refreshed,
 

when you stretch the muscles for new activity, 

may you be refreshed,
 

through your day with each person you meet, 

may you be refreshed,
 

as hunger and thirst arrive hour by hour, 

may you be refreshed,
 

at the close when all is relaxation, 

may you be refreshed,
 

with prayers of closure offered, 

may you be refreshed.

Love Letter No 111 - Upgrade Love

Dear U,

The sweetest things happen because

an effort is undertaken. Take the 

good and make it better!?

When it comes to love accept

the upgrade. Add a gigabyte of memories,

upgrade the physical structures like putting

a plan of action in place,

try going wireless for improved maneuvering,

add the networking card for increased

communication, get a new optical mouse

for easy pointing, it all makes it so much easier

to share the love.

And isn't that what we've been hoping for?

With warm and tender affection,
LarryG

Love Letter No 110 - Ten Love

Dear S,

Scattered amongst half written poems,

partially journaled meltdowns, songs without 

towering chorus, verses lying in wait of a bridge,

 there are remnants of feelings savored yet unexpressed.

Gathered up, sorted, organized, for all the world, these add up

perfectly to Ten. The ultimate number of

(love potion no9) + 1 = 10.

The descriptor for ideal infatuation in sync.

Sweet Sweet Ten.

With warm and tender affection,
LarryG

Blessing for Joyful Sunshine

May joyful sunshine light your paths,
May the delight of a shower christen 

your bubbly laughter,
May a cozy moment of shelter from storm 

incite your playful spirit.
May togetherness enrich 

moments of the days.
May the breath of sweetness 

flow in the breezes.
Slan Abhaile.

Love Letter No 109 - Honey Love

Dear Donut Girl,

The sweetness of your nectar 

is an instinctive irresistible urge.

There in the center of it all your 

sweetness awaits. How wonderful

it is and then to hear you call out, 

"Honey!"

You glaze me Donut Girl.

With warm and tender affection,
LarryG

Love Letter No 108 - Rainbow Love

Dear S,

Red as cardinal's crest,

Orange as morning sun,

Yellow as corn silk,

Green as pine needles,

Blue as jay's wing,

Indigo as crow down,

Violet as sunset's gasp,

Colors come gently,

each from a unique

place, in regal display.

We aren't missing out,

we are enjoining, yes,

and joining the rainbow.

With warm and tender affection,
LarryG

Where Butterflies Fly

Go to the Youtube

Do you know
where the butterflies are?
Along the hill
the milkweed’s sparse
Off the main trail, above the trees,
There’s a field above the stream.

Do you know
where the butterflies are?
The stomach flutters, and you wish on a star
the chest feels tight, and it fills your mind,
soulbirds fly into your dream

Chorus:
Freedom from the cocoon
We go sailing with the new moon
We are soaring
Where butterlies fly

Do you know
where the butterflies are?
Out on the porch in the back yard
A shady swing and a garden fair
Butterflies giving us wings

Do you know
where the butterflies are?
The stomach flutters, and you wish on a star
the chest feels tight, and it fills your mind,
soulbirds fly into your dream.

Chorus:
Freedom from the cocoon
We go sailing with the new moon
We are soaring
Where butterlies fly

A friend helped me turn the post previous to 

this one into a song.

and my vocals are not very good. :)

above the tree line

Do you know 

where the butterflies are?

 Along the hill

where the milkweed grows,

Off the main trail,

above the tree line,

in the field above the 

gurgling stream.

Do you know 

where the butterflies are?

The stomach flutters,

the chest feels tight,

the head feels light,

the eyes lock

The butterflies, yes,

I know where they are.

 

Love Letter No 107 - Waiting Love

Dear S,

Honestly, waiting happens.

In all things, it's part of life.

And being in that mode is not simple.

But it has been well said that 

the gift of waiting increases true value.

Let the clock tick, fast, slow, 

I don't care... it can stand still, or 

maybe there is no clock at all.

Waiting is a gift that keeps giving,

sweet the absence that lingers there.

 

With warm and tender affection,
LarryG

Blessing for an Accident Victim

 A blessing for an Accident Victim
Dedicated to  Rich

May healing that makes a difference come to you.
May the right touch arrive at the right time. 

May family, friends, loved ones offer a special grace and liberty for your life.
May the slow days of recovery be filled with gentle memories sweeping over your mind like a breeze that flows through fields before the harvest.
May you celebrate the inner wisdom of being created in God's image, wisdom that
empowers. May body and spirit receive good gifts that come down from above.

And as recovery transforms life into a new creation, may you be renewed in abundance to walk in the love of re-creation. May renewal be completed by the One who seeks you every day, and may you share that presence by walking wistfully in a world hungry for the divine.
