Release the Wild Hope

  Integrity lives beyond the ego and  inside of her heart . And  though she is not always so tame , her passions fuel the desire to do good quietly .  The dreams born in the heart are beautiful and bold   and the ideas that flow from  her mind move around  edges both rocky and smooth,  inside and out .

A moment arrives as if in were late and along with it comes a bit of its wild . Now,  Will I go with this bit of wild and see ? For in this moment , you understand ,  it is life and it is free .

This wild hope , it lives in me and I offer to others at every place I see.

Rattle your cage and go into your heart . Your dearest friend awaits you there with open wings and a wild hope and heart .

This is What I Have to Give

In one  moment ,

It’s power is eternity .

Swept up by it’s energy , it can swirl you into anguish .

Let it be still and observe the courage .

It passes , as we understand time within our walls .

Parting the walls is as simple as moving energy .

Transform your spirit with welcoming the heart .

Live forever in the heart or travel endlessly in places of dispute while carrying  the weight  of hate .

These moments live with you forever .

What do you think about that ?

Wild Hope

I’ve learned that it does not suit me too well to sit in the quiet of hope but , rather , to be in the wild of it .  This is not to say that there isn’t  great value in quieting the mind . There is , there truly  is .   There are those delicious times when hope lives it’s mightiest in the doing , in the wild side , the wild side of hope .

Their  courage lives in their  willing hearts .

It shines brightly in their vulnerability and in their  continuing resurrection  of hope .

Hope in circumstances that most would proclaim to be hopeless .

Shinning on in Courage !

Stamina : The Grace of Homeless Youth

Stamina

Stamina

I am here ,  standing and staying .

As the planets in the Universe remain  ,

so , too , do I .

My gentleness is hidden and stamina remains  .

Does anyone see me ?

Stamina remains .

Where will I sleep tonight …will I sleep tonight ?

Stamina remains .

Where is my future ?

Stamina remains .

 

 

 

 

 

When the Light is Dim

I go to the source within . When the light is dim the threads of prayers hold me in .  IMG_7205

THE LIGHT

IMG_0829The courage I needed arrived in the quiet , in the dark . It was the strength of her trust and her faith

that fed me when I was too exhausted to eat. It was her child like pleas for Chocolate that me gave fleeting

smiles like a light in the darkness of fear.

She was a light in my life .

Holding her frail hand was easy . Letting it go …heartbreak .
