Happiness … a right? Or something you do earn? A smile takes less effort Is something you do learn. But what is happiness, Besides a nice emotion? It’s birds that sing and waves that dance Upon the mighty ocean. It’s powerful and curative This happiness you seek. For when you [...]
Forgiveness -- The greatest gift … When used to heal a painful rift. Those who harbor hate and anger-- Who hold for others hardened rancor, Hold within their chest a stone Leaving them to feel alone. Yet when you find it in your heart To heal that which does set [...]
Embark on a journey. Walk forward step by step. Although you may not know the way, This trip you won’t forget… The path of life is winding. Many turns along the way. And where each step will lead you, Is not for you to say. Walk blindly forward if you [...]
Lie down here beside me. Rest your weary head. Cry not in mourning, For I’m not really dead. I always step beside you When my name you call. I’m here to dry your tears I will not let you fall. I dance in every raindrop. I ride upon the wind. [...]
I gave a reading yesterday where my sitter's loved one came in very, very strongly with wonderful evidence. I have another today, so I was asking in meditation for the person's loved ones to draw near when the time came. I could feel someone standing by already. Then, the poem [...]
Like a ball of golden light The love inside you burns. Straining… ever yearning… Growing stronger as it turns. Once released it flows. A velvet river flowing out. Coating all it touches Like water from a spout. Open wide the spigot. Let the love inside you pour. There’s such a [...]
After getting no poem yesterday, three today, (albeit one of them very short). The first two are most definitely messages to me, the third is universal. This first poem is quite interesting, as today's local paper has an article about me and my latest book, "The Priest and the Medium": [...]
In the back of your mind There lies a surprise. Inspiration Just waiting to arise. Give it breath. Breathe life into the thoughts, And watch as beauty grows. Who knows What lessons lie in wait? What is your fate? Be inspired. Don’t grow tired. All the world is yours to [...]
The poem today was for me as I prepare to share the message of mediumship with The Villages Parapsychology Club. The adrenaline keeps pumping every time I think about the crowd of 100+ that will be there. I wasn't sure I'd be able to get a poem this morning with [...]
We come to you with great happiness. Our time is thus well spent. For every word that you do hear From the lips of God is sent. * * * Sorrow Tears of sadness fall. Pity not forever those who cry For they do not know it all. ‘Tis but [...]
Heinous crimes So much shooting In this way The love polluting Guns used to kill Innocent lives they still When will man See the plan And stop? Fear and hatred Is nothing sacred? Stop and listen: “Love thy neighbor” Words to savor. Create love where there is hate Do it [...]
Ripples on the water… Waves from deep within Creation does start from a void In this way does life begin. The birth of matter From nothing does arise Pulsing and vibrating Like lightning ‘cross the skies. All you see is but illusion Nothing solid do you touch It’s nothing but [...]
After not getting a poem yesterday for the first time in 4 months I heard: Worry not so much If you have lost your touch. Here, there, and everywhere We always do abide. We’re here at your side. * * * Then, a new poem... History… An accounting of the [...]
A baby comes into the world-- All of life it lies ahead. The family gazes lovingly, Caresses its small head. A birth is quite a symbol. Such hope to all it brings. Such innocence in one so small-- In our hearts the love it sings. We gaze upon a little [...]
This was one of those wonderful sessions where I would not have come up with this one by myself, and the words flowed without pause ... The father and the son Walk hand in hand. One guiding and loving, One trying hard to understand. In the role of teacher The [...]
For every leaf that falls, another grows. How many leaves will fall, nobody knows. Each blade of grass, each budding flower Holds a kind of special power. Life! The force that animates Gives to all of nature its vibrant states. It courses through each tiny cell. A feeling that you [...]
Serendipity Things happen by chance. A passing glance does catch your eye. Was it meant to be? Coincidence. Two strangers meet. Their paths cross on the street And they become lovers From that day hence. Lives intertwined. Connected beyond time. Who can say What forces do play? Magical encounters One [...]
A dear friend is going through chemotherapy now. She has a wonderful positive attitude toward it. I asked the spirit world if they had a poem for her ... Troubles come in many forms Such challenges they bring. And how you handle every test Is quite a tricky thing. Do [...]
Beautiful Fall colors Burst upon the scene. Leaves that hang upon the trees Turn orange from the green. The changes are in nature That all who pass can see. The same outer changes They happen thus to thee. What is aging? But the changes on your face. Tiny lines and [...]
Those who play with music notes Such pleasure they do bring. When with their voice or instruments The heaven’s sounds they sing. For music is a gift from God It brightens up the soul. One broken can, with music’s help, Once again feel whole. “Music soothes the savage beast” Is [...]
Gone from your sight, But not from your heart. Those who have left you Are not really apart. Death is just a transition To a new type of form. But close in your thoughts Your heart we still warm. Death is merely a change From the body to spirit. If [...]
Whoever said that life is easy Had no troubles of his own. For one of the great truths of life Is that you reap what you have sown. Everything you do in life— Your every little act, It comes back to affect you. You can count on this as fact. [...]
Judge not your brothers. Let them live their lives. For only as you walk your path Does each one learn to thrive. No one can say his way is best; That he is better than the rest. For each has come to walk his trail. This life is neither pass [...]
Comes the dawn … And with it new surprises. What will happen today As the sun rises? You know not the answer For yours is to wait And watch it unfold As you discover your fate. But are you a puppet Whose arms move on strings? Acting only when forced, [...]
Never before has man So needed the touch of grace. The stresses of his life Show clearly on his face. Weep not for things of the past … Look with eager eyes for things to come. Your future lies before you Spread open like a sheet. When looking only forward [...]
He’s back! I recognized the energy right away and some of you will recognize this voice. Not sure how to divide up the phrases I heard, so bear with me, and my apologies to the poet - the phrasing here is my guess at how to type up the words [...]
Beauty. You say it’s in the eye Of he who sees with the brain But there beyond the eyes Something far more subtle does remain. Oh, if you could only see Your world from one who’s truly free Not one who’s bound by heavy chains Of idols false and bigotry. [...]
Creative minds do think in sync. They hear the words with no need to think. For what they hear is inspiration A word much like your respiration. Inspiration is the same As the true meaning of its name In-spirit is truly what you are When you breathe in from afar. [...]
Today all I can say is, "Wow" ... Bitter tastes the root For it never sees the light. And some plants know when night has come For they curl themselves up tight. Why this passion for the sun? Why be pulled toward its heat? For light’s the source of all [...]
