To get back into writing as a habit for my creative /expressive needs and to prepare to resume my children's writing course.

Life itself is meditation.
Life itself is meditation.
should we ever feel confused.
When we wake up to simplicity.
there is a joyfulness.
We need never again refuse.
The light comes in again this morning
to blush the tiny cherry toms.
Kindness reddens cheeks
and puts a tingle down inside
my beating gentle resting heart
Yet sends a tender tingle to my toes
bits and pieces may seem a rough and tumble
and a jumble jungle to confuse
yet my own sweet tender God made
fingers can unthread and sew and recompose
Nothing is ever ever EVER wasted
for this is a potter's field
I once played the part of Judas
since then much has been revealed.
he tossed away the gold and talents that
he got paid for kissing his GOoD friend and
even he was as such forgiven
by the ONE who still trasscends
Mmmmm I have less to do today
freed as I am by Jesus Christ to simply Jimmy be
I have a gull and sunshine for a speech therapist
and a mural forest for the children who
will see kind tender playful characters from books
new and old from the forest library
I am so in love with a girl
who has a lovely smile
who seeks love and harmony
may she step into the forest
of the paper trees and flowing rivers
of the RIVERMAN
with me
yes there is a place for US
and I really do hope GOD will
be with us and someday when the time is right
Lord I pray my girl will marry me.
Seems a fantasy and a distant dream
like Lear's Piggy wig with the ring
at the end of his nose
But we know about the Emperor
how he got conned into being naked
in a brand new set of clothes
Whilst Adam and Eve wore fig leafs when neither of them
prior to their fall were bare
No like blushing cherry red tomatoes
The author saw them and they were perfect
and in the brand new renewed life
they were forgiven
unjudged and had they
not a care.
To realize that life itself is meditation
will put all back in touch with life once more
'the love of money'
is the 'root of all evil'
dig it up and burn it
place the tree of life again back there.

oh to
Oh to walk bare foot through a beachside forest feel the warmth of the fine sand oh to swim in warm and friendly currents lay back read and understand that the world is vast and rounded and has no squares corners to be in and that the breath inside my body is shared with each and everything.How to remove all self focused notions as the salty ocean kisses my two lips and the fresh melted mountain water run so freely i shall sip.As I feel a better notion pouring freely through my brain and the zen of simply being tiny makes me home everywhere again.Oh to be a freer person than the thought s would sometimes have me be.Then I could lend a hand or simply rest here with my soul quite happily.Unencumbered by my folly of always working hard in heart and mind and somehow find an understanding 'he's got the whole world in his hands'.may today be just paper folding a little glue and a nice cup of tea.I'm not meant to wake and worry.I am only simply supposed to gently 'be'.All I love will be fine without me .All I care for tenderly embraced.Oh I love someone so fully and always long to see her face.Yet I must of course find oceans peaceful minded and set free.Provide pace joy and understanding and try to dissolve like salt into the flowing streams a running to the open sea.

Life
You are life to me each morning as i compose a poem from a tear.
Life is a teardrop on a young girl's face
Sometimes wellies plashing in puddle.
So a teardrop and a puddle what then as each passing year?
A leaf a stick a blossom floating in a stream
Life becomes a nice warm reverie
a bathtub or a shower and wondrous stream
In the steamed up window I would draw you
as you lay down in your tub
of course writing there
'I love you'
a trickling drop slide downward from above
You are every wetness that I have ever known
my own self swimming in St Ives sweet sunny sea
Every dewdrop on each bud or flowers
You are very life to me
I got you pumping through my own blood
The realer currency
the currency of hearts beating
air fuelled lungs extracting goodness
from the morning or the evening air
our hearts beating constantly
you are moistening your bed sheets
from the pores of all you are
Life is the vast ocean
we're both star fish and we're stars
Snow is melting on the mountains
to bring reservoirs of purity to you and I
Even purer than the drizzle mist a
spilling tenderly from yon sky
I long to lay with you in heather
though we both wake up all wet
I want to feel warm rain rush over both of us
God will shelter us from
all repression and regret
There's a lake where all is mirrored
but all I want to view is you as you
bathe yourself upon the shore
I hold a sunny towel ready there for you
Then we head off to our shelter
there is washing on the line
let it get rinsed with mountain shower as
we step in and with stick n logs we make a lovely fire
we smell the wood smoke sap a blazing like
the joy it is to be alive.
Everybody sleeping safe n warm inside
the stories written by the lovely countryside
And no need for any hidden just the clarity of us
we love life and all its season
we're at one with all the buzz.
The wood the clay the earth n seeds we're 'makers of good grace'
we see god surrounding everything
and we feel Love's features in our won sweet mirrored face
Good morning my sweet lover
good morning my good friend
there is a love that lasts for ever
as we begin for each other again
to sow the seeds of hopefulness
and kindness to all around and water
the sweet patch of strawberries
and Victorian sink of seedlings
Your very self my hallowed ground
may innocence be ours and
may we keep sweet company
I love to see you fly about
and sometimes land upon my knee
Thankyou darling
hold me
till the very end of time and back again as we continue life of
images and rhyme
just like HOLY
bread and wine
Amen
