Eavesdropping

Eavesdropping

We have so much more in common than not. If we could only see. Projections are feelings reflecting back to us. What if we stopped projecting and allowed ourselves to take heart and simply be. How dreadfully unaware we are, … Continue reading

Stairway to Heaven

Stairway to Heaven

At peace within the fray,so long as the mind stays at bay.The heart feels the spaceand that some-day home met at divine pace.A roof to deflect the storm.Windows to exchange the light and ponder the view.A door to exit and … Continue reading

A Tropical Nook
