Oh fly, fly little baby,

Fly, fly little one.

When the pain hurts too much,

Let go when day is done.

 

Rise up on wings of fairy dust                                              

Found on Pinterest on 12-17-16. Stephen Hayward. Stars.

And dance among the stars.

Say hello to Venus,

And wave good-bye to Mars.

 

Lay back against the crescent moon,

And God will rock you to sleep, 

As the angels sing you a lullaby

That would make a grown man weep.

 

The world can be a scary place

When you are small and alone.

Let God’s finger point the way

To a home you can call your own.

 

Don’t let go of the Hope inside.

Reach out with your tiny hand.

Trust in others to see you through 

To find peace in the Promised Land.

Sing with the angels.

Sing to your God.

Lift your voice to heaven,

Found on Pinterest on 4-4-17. Ecogentleman.com.

And kneel in the sod.

 

Sit in the shadows,

As the darkness falls.

Sing out a note,

When the Nightingale calls.

 

Always remember,

Your voice is a gift.

It brings great joy

To the spirits you lift.

 

With each song you sing

And notes you release,

Your songs bring comfort 

To those who need peace.

 

Found on Facebook Timeline on 9-9-16.

Each person you meet,

Needs what you can give.

They are often in pain

And are struggling to live.

 

So, sing with your heart, 

And give from your soul.

Your singing can help

Someone become whole.

I see Him in the leaves

Of every single beautiful tree,

That moves with every breeze.

He lives among the mountain peaks,

And swims the ocean deep.

I hear him in the fields and creeks,

And all the birds that peep.

 

God created this world for me,

With every breath I take.

I see Him in my baby’s eyes

Whenever he’s awake.

I feel God’s presence as I rise

To create the things I make.

He gives me friends to comfort me

When losses bring heart-break.

God shows me that He really cares,

By being there for me.

His blessings come from time to time.

He’s there when I despair.

He’s in the smiles of those I greet,

And when I write a rhyme.

He’s with the friends that I meet.

My God is everywhere.

Hey, Little One,

You deserve the best,

That life can offer to you.

Found on Pinterest on 2-21-16.

Don’t sell yourself short

When you can’t build a fort.

You’are more,

Than “what you can do.”

Come sit down beside me.

Put your head down,

On my arm

As you fall asleep.

You don’t have to prove

That you’re in the groove.

You have my permission

To weep.

You deserve the respect

Of those that  you meet;

To be treated fairly by all.

Seek to be true

To the real self in you.

Forget about building a wall.

It takes great courage,

To pull yourself up,

After you’ve fallen down.

Reach out your hand.

Think of a plan.

Get yourself up

Off the ground.

You are precious to God,

And precious to me.

Just be whoever you are.

You can be liked too,

For just being you.

You don’t have to be

 A star.

Never give up

On your self-respect.

For one day you will find:

Giving it all to others,

Not protecting your cover,

Will leave you exposed,

 From behind.

THE SUN TOUCHES ME

My fingers move to touch the light.

I  will not embrace the dark of night.

A  song starts singing in my soul

Where once despair took such a toll.

 

I dream new dreams to replace the old,

Nightmares that have now grown cold.

Your spirit fills me with peace.

I feel a sense of sweet release.

 

Your eyes watch my falling tears,

Hands heal  wounds from past years.

This simple gift of shared grief

Brings me such great relief.

 

Your warmth is like the summer sun.

Words soothe before the day is done.

You gather up the pieces of my soul.

Trust glues them back into a whole.

GOING HOME

I’m going “Home,” to see my Father.

I have missed the comfort of

Being in His holy presence

And feeling His great love.

His light is warm and tender,

His eyes are a sky blue.

His face is like sunlight

Sparkling in the dew.

He smells like the sweet clover

Found in the month of May.

His voice can sound like thunder,

Or like a child at play.

His hands are strong and tender.

He wipes away my tears.

He heals my broken spirit

And removes all my fears.

He wraps His love around me

Like a warm summer day.

I feel the cold inside me

Begin to melt away.

Found on Pinterest on 11-9-15.

“Home” is very different

From the days I lived on earth.

I seldom felt special

Since the day of my birth.

Words were seldom spoken

To give me encouragement,

When I started missing

All that God has meant.

My traveling is over.

I’m  unfastening the ties

That bind me to the earth

So I can soar the star-lit skies.

I have lost the will to be here.

I am going “Home” to God.

I will touch and smell each flower

On the hills where He has trod.

I will lay my body down

Beside a sparkling stream.

I will lose myself in music

And allow my soul to dream,

Of good things and bright things

And teach my soul to sing.

I will kneel before My Father

And reclaim my Eagle’s wings.

We will fly over mountains.

We will soar the endless skies,

And I will see eternity

Within His loving eyes.

The following poem has special significance to me now. I am ten months into the treatment and get tired easy. This is for all those out there  with Fibromyalgia, CVIDS, Cancer, and other Auto immune Diseases. This also includes those with Depression, PTSD, and many other illnesses which affect your energy levels. I hope this also comforts those who care for them and have the courage to stay and help them.

RELATIONSHIPS GIVE US COMFORT AND HELP US GROW

Relationships

Relationships are the very center of our existence. We learn as infants to depend on certain people to hold us when we cry and to give us food when we are hungry. We find safety in those who care for us and we develop trust  that these important people will not harm us.

The family system teaches us throughout our lives what to expect from others and how to act  towards those we come in contact with. We are taught either to trust people, to avoid people, or to detach from them, depending upon the experiences we had growing up. We learn what sounds indicate safety and which instill fear. We study gestures, read facial cues to decide if there is acceptance or rejection waiting for us. Every sound and movement is ingrained in all the senses of our being. These remnants from the past vine themselves tightly around our emotional selves, and our thoughts. Because our  emotional and physical survival depends on how well we pick up cues, we may over react if we sense danger is near or for some reason, we convince ourselves the threat is real. Every person we meet and interact with feeds the growing body of evidence whether people can be trusted. We also learn how to defend our fragile psyches and our bodies against unbearable pain.

We may choose isolation from others in order to prevent any one from ever getting close enough to hurt us again. We may defend ourselves by cutting off our own needs, and become focused on pleasing those in our environment in order to become valuable enough so that we can protect ourselves to some degree, but in doing so, we sacrifice our own right to be ourselves and we neglect our needs in always putting others first. We may even decide to defend ourselves first, and so we become aggressive, abusive or manipulative, and we vow to ourselves to destroy others before they get the chance to destroy us. So much of what we learned in the early years can influence our level of happiness in life or how miserable we become.

The good news is, we can educate ourselves or get therapeutic help so we can learn what defenses we are using and why, and be able to come up with strategies to change the outcomes in our relationships. We will need to look at the roles we play in family dynamics, to look at our own motives for doing things, and be honest with ourselves whether or not what we do and say is harming the person we are in relationship with or is it beneficial?

We all want warm, fuzzy relationships, those which make us laugh, and those that inspire us to climb to greater heights than we believed possible. Those relationships that tear down our self-esteem or rob us of our need for self-expression, or take away our personal power so essential to growth, must be examined and winnowed out when necessary.

Most of us yearn to feel love and to be given to, but a part of us also yearns to grow in relationship with others. There exists inside of each of us the need to be something more, not only in another person’s eyes, but in our own eyes as well. That will require from us honest self-examination, self-sacrifice, the willingness to communicate feelings, thoughts, values, and beliefs as well as the ability to negotiate needs. When these types of relationships become a part of our lives, they bring joy, hope for tomorrow, and at times. we are even able to touch the heart and mind of God.
