Embrace
I am your vase, your soil, your moisture, your sky, and your sun
Whatever you will, I shall be
Speak and I shall breathe
Call the stars by name and I shall remember
Everything I am, I give
If not for you, than for no other
I will hold you day upon day, carry you where I go, smile at your beauty
I will watch in adoration as you unfold, as bud becomes bloom
Again and again
I will move where you move, bend where you bend
Your presence my completion
I will reach with careful hand to touch frail softness
And find myself, uncovered and awaken
I will curl into the glen that is you, collapse into your welcoming green
Finally I shall be home, and weep to the angels so
Finally I shall be free, and embrace the echo of my own laughter.

Sunseed
I am gardener, I am maiden
A sunseed in your pocket
A dewdrop on your tongue
A blossom calling to the bees
Come to me, take what is yours
Carry me away, pollen upon knees
And turn me, transform me, into honey gold
Take me, whatever vision of light you be
For I am yours

Happy photo! Makes me happy too! Very lovely -honey gold would be nice. You are a beautiful flower! 🙂
You are a beautiful flower, too…..and obviously (clears throat) hot…as my husband says! hehe Have a beautiful Sunday. 🙂 Sam
Oh that beautiful smile of yours once again graces my screen, a smile in return from one that is joyed by your joy… your poems are magnificent, have you ever thought of having them published? I would buy them… keep on smiling… it brings smiles to others…
Okay….now I’m afraid to stop smiling….lol…but that’s probably a good thing. 🙂
Thank you again. These ones were okay….I couldn’t quite get out all I wanted to get out; they struggled to get out of my head. But I am glad yo enjoyed.
I have given all my writings (poetry, prose, short stories, etc.) to my higher power…and let go of any plan for publishing. I would like to publish self/or traditional someday, but am letting my higher power take the wheel on that. As I tend to turn into Type A, freak-a-zoid when I run with a plan/goal….so my baby goal is to write on this blog until 2012 and see what happens….trying to live my life more like that….just letting go and enjoying the ride without thoughts of destination.
I do appreciate yours and Robyn’s support on the publishing aspect, much. Makes my heart smile. And I know that my words will reach who they are meant to reach at the “right” time.
And she rambles….hehehe
Have a glorious Sunday.
Sam 🙂
🙂 I hear you — “the joy is in the journey” xo

Ok, I am not alone. Bulldog agrees… SAM NEEDS PUBLISHER!! This way I won’t have to make Sam Scrapbook – and can just buy her collection for my bookshelf to be treasured forever more 🙂 Really Really Really – -don’t know how to guide you but you must start planting the seeds so your incredible writings can be discovered by all.
I loved these 2 works… some subtle contrast to the lessons of yesterday’s post… but captured my heart nevertheless. I am so much like you and relate to both today and yesterday’s posts so much in my feelings about romantic love, self-love, submission, devotion etc. etc.
“Come to me, take what is yours

And turn me, transform me, into honey gold
Take me, whatever vision of light you be
For I am yours.”
Now don’t tell me puppy is your muse young lady!! hee hee! He is quite the lover I can see…and you radiant today ~ must have gotten better sleep than I 🙂 Much Love Sea Sister who needs publisher !!xo
heheheeh…you guessed it Spastic Colon (aka Violet my dog) is my muse……sigh….if only
You are so fantastic….I was thinking the same exact thing…the contrast between these and the day before. Actually I started to write these before yesterday’s post, and then struggled to finish them last night. The energy on them is incomplete, scattered, and all over the place….as is my heart/mind.
Yep…..both sides….submission, release let go and the other: hold on tight, angst, and overwhelming passion.
You can see my note to Bulldog above about publishing. 🙂 So sweet to say, you are.
You are my amazing sea sister….let’s go swim in Maui…I’ll find you a time travel machine…so no airplane.
Huge hugs and love to you.
Have a wonderful day filled with joy and contentment.
Shine on, sweety.
Me 🙂
