Make Way

Make Way

Love, Papa.

Whispers screamed in solitary

Or silence in the crowd

Are moments of awareness

Seeking purchase in your mind

Listen closely and make way

Love, Papa.

Please share Papa with those you love.

Love, Papa.

Things that others say and do

Often cause me pain in my brain

I worry, I fret, I argue, and I judge.

Their comments, their actions,

Lifestyles and choices

Are not the ones I would choose.

“I” was brought up to think differently.

“I” believe they are wrong.

Therefore “I” must be right!

Focusing all my efforts

On the choices of others

Can be such a bother.

And they never listen

When I tell them!

Sigh....

Love, Papa.

A Bit Odd

A Bit Odd

Love, Papa

You’re seldom languishing near the surface

Often hiding in the cracks

You never cast a shadow

But I see you

I think you are the meaning of my life,

Though you often give me cause to doubt.

You are loyal, I’ll give you that....

But elusive, to say the least.

I think of you often

And I am comforted by your presence

You give me strength in rather subtle ways

Sometimes I wish you would just step in and take over

But then I might grow to resent you, if you did.

I like our relationship

Though I find it a bit odd

But life is like that

Isn’t it?

Love, Papa.

Trying

Love, Papa.

I’ll try, says you

And never do

To change the me

That never was.

For just as I begin to try

Another me wonders why.

Perhaps to be is more the cure

Of what, the me, could best endure.

I’ll watch and see as if by flying

To see what me is really trying.

Love, Papa.

Sheltered

Love, Papa.

As swiftly as the wind changes direction

Life can turn on a dime.

First leading you one way,

Then suddenly another.

Following can be difficult at times.

But then so can walking into the hurricane.

Be guided by that which calls your name,

But remember sounds can travel on the wind.

Listen to that which speaks to your heart.

Sheltered from the storm that surrounds.

Love, Papa.

Please share Papa with those you love.

A Simple Touch

A Simple Touch

Love, Papa.

A gentle brush as you pass by

Reached out from another soul.

Feelings felt deep within

That sense of strength and peace.

Ever present, deeply grounded,

Always willing to share

With each that passes by.

Forever attached to all that is

Yet there for all to see.

Love imparted everywhere

Cloaked in the body of a tree!

Have you touch your tree today?

Love, Papa.

Please share Papa with those you love.
