fall at you feet

fall at you feet

pieces of heaven were falling at my feet

that my walk upon my Life Path

would be . . .

Heavenly

this was the consciousness

i held on to

dearly

and because of this

self affirmation

it came to be

you see

we

are made in the image

and are endowed

with the Breath

of life

as well as free will

so will it as you wish

but don’t wish

just Do and Be

and see

your Magic

actualize

before your eyes

and let pieces of Heaven

fall at you feet

every day

every day

every day i am thinking

considering

pondering

examining life

and how i feel about it

what i think about it

what i hope it may become

and where i have come from

come through

to be where i am

every day

there are words

that dance in between my thoughts

asking permission

to be shared with the world without

every day

and every place i look

or affix my mind

there is the potential

i may be blessed to find

a poem

or some little gem of light

or darkness

that i can bring to the light

to stave off the gloom

that assumes

that i may choose to be silent

and not speak

not

yes, every day

this is the process

of my living

seeking

giving

taking

embracing

forsaking

while basking

baking

asking

being real

and faking

my way along the road

every day

the load i perceive that i carry

is relieved

by the words i speak

the words i write

in spite of me

every day is a challenge

and every day

i hope to meet you at the crossroads

where we may share

this every day adventure

we call life

every day i have hope

every day

Live

Live

a shadow crossed my brow

and in that fleeting moment

i looked upon the face of death

and He was snickering

and whispering to me

“i am going to get your ass sooner or later”

i smiled back at Him

and called Him an asshole

for i had no fear of his attempts

to haunt my life expression

anymore

i have laid down my life

in the hands of Fate

more times than i can remember

and Fate kept kicking my ass back

to finish what i have come to do

Live !!!!!
