Crystal Cave

Within the caves of crystals and thoughts,
Towards the back is books and what not's..
Where age old wisdom fill's there pages,
Where contains memories of the passing ages

Where the fire flickers to make the shadow's dance,
Where things that move give cause for a second glance.
Where from within the cave somethings come to light..
Flowing all directions like star's in the night...

Where whispers echo off the walls,
Where we are alive and having a ball
Where the sounds give cause for a moment's thought
To which we know we should treasure what we've got

But something inside stirs ever more in the night
A desire, a passion a longing for answers so bright
A desire that burns stronger than the flames in sight
A surging impulse to know more a life long fight

Within this cave of crystals and thoughts
Answers are found and some are still sought
A cause for understanding and it's basic phase
Leaves us clear from all clutter and haze

Within this cave the roads become clear
And from that path we take we eradicate fear
And so to we add to the pages in the books
Each path we take and each one we dare look

That Moment

Lounging at the beach today..
Listening as the world goes by..
Watching the waves as they rock in that stormy way,
Watching as the birds swoop and fly so high....

Hearing the calls they cry as the sea does roar
Watching as the waves rise and fall
As it sways back and forth towards the shore
In and out with each a sudden swell

Churning up what may have been left before
While life below the surface carry's on regardless
As the drift wood drifts to land upon the shore
While seaweed is tossed around to land and make a mess

So as I sit here in the moment on this day
I contemplate the wonders of the world and what I see
With the waves so wild and calming in there own way
Knowing that the ocean, the waves will always be free

And if perhaps for a moment or two
We take on board some of the power from the sea
To create our currents to move us in what we do
Then perhaps even we can be for that moment free

The Heart Sings

As the heart sings, the soul too shall resonate to the same tune.
To a point in which the words will flow like the currents of the sea.
Ebbing in and out settling upon the pages to which we write.
Upon pages where our thoughts and feelings really can be free.

Where imagination becomes your visionary to see for what it is.
Where the words just jump out at you with passion.
To which the heart and soul will continue to sing it's song.
Where those words will slide easily with flowing motion.

Weaving through the branches upon the strong tree's in life.
Creating whispers in the wind a music in the heart.
From morning sunrise all through to the setting sun at night.
Where like each day a new one arises to which we play our part.

To which we are connected in unison to Earth's energy.
Where we all share a common tie to which some are uncertain.
Where aspects of the seen and unseen are set in motion.
Where again our heart's sing to a beat it does maintain.

Where connections upon the pages begin to shine through.
Where the words show meaning of that we can see so clear.
Where as they flow across the pages to the rise and fall of the tide.
They create the cycles of magic to keep balance and banish fear.

So I call to the soul within to let the heart sing.
To sound your song with pride and show your passion.
To show that your song is yours and your soul will match your tune.
So let the heart sing it's song so full of love and compassion.

Can You See Her

There's an angel, over my shoulder
Can you see her, she is older,
She is one, she is two and she is free,
She's a whisper in the wind,
She's a golden star in the sky,

She's a feather on the floor,
She's a knock upon the door,
Can you see her can you see,
She is there just listen to me,
Can you feel her cause she is there,

There's an angel at my window
Can you see her, she is mellow
She will whisper words in my ear
She will always leave a calling card
As she visits when I need her

She's a flower in my mind
She's of freedom with no earthly bind
Can you see her, shining bright
Casting all colours of the rainbow tonight
There's an angel with me now

Can you see her, can you see
Of such wonder and mystery
Can you feel her, with me now
Can you see her take a bow
See that angel over my shoulder

Contemplations Of A Day

Contemplates the day ahead,
Oh the joy's of work that make me rise up from bed.
To sit and ponder where the morning has gone,
With my mug of tea and by the way this isn't a song.

To sit and think what the day will hold,
The sun is gone the clouds are out is the summer sold.
The roads outside already rumble with the passing cars.
Oh how I wish it was night to watch the stars.

To be as free as the bird flying high
Instead I sit ready to head out and let the day pass by
To await what the world has in-store for me this day
With faith I hold my head high as I make my way

Out the door and down the stairs to meet world outside
To venture forward to a place my work does reside
To meet and greet all new faces about they're day
Shopping for the food they need upon this a cloudy day

To cater for the week that lies ahead
Shopping for the basics of milk and bread
Going away with a trolley load having spent too much
Worrying next perhaps what to have for lunch

Counting up how many dinners they did buy
Wondering if they have enough and so they sigh
And so the cycle continues day after day
Where we all need that food of life in every way

A glance to the clock say's it's time for home
And so I clock out and I'm now free to roam
Free for a day and then back again it's true
But each day differs and wouldn't be the same without you

Jennifer Don 2010

Pen To Paper

I've sat with pen to paper,
With thought's that waver,
For words to flow,
Weaving in and out as they go,

Watching the birds flying high,
Watching the cars pass on by,
Relaxing with the music that fill's my ears,
To have some thoughts ever so clear,

To glimpse the memories of old,
The ones I hold close like sacred gold.
Those tender moment's caught in time,
For me to cherish for they are mine,

And so once more I'm back in focus on my way,
A moment of stillness to hear the whispers of love today
To clear the mind of what may be
To see the world alive and ever so free

To feel the passion burning alive inside
To know that words should never be left to hide
To feed them to the world around
For others to feel and hear they're sweet sound

And so as I sit to ponder the flow
These words that are written found a place to go
Upon the pages in which we may on day turn
To have them in the open keeps my heart free to burn

Jennifer Don 2010

Will You

Would you come should I call
Will you answer with spoken word
Would you catch me if I should fall
Would you sing the soulful song

Would you show the signs when your around
Would you wave that old familiar smell
Can you give me some hint or sound
That you have come when I have called

Will I know you when you are here
Will I feel the warmth I long to feel
Will I be free from all the tears
I long to have just a moment in time

A moment with you just like the past
A moment to feel your loving touch
To hold the moment close and have it last
To say the words that I've waited to say

So will you come, If I dare call to you
Will you take my hand again, and make it all clear
And will you read the words that you used to
So that I may carry you for ever more within my heart

Jennifer Don 2010

Soaring

To ride upon that white winged majestic wonder,
To be so low to touch the waves and rise to hear the thunder,
Upon the back of grace I hold the moment close inside,
Hearing the thunder bellow across the sky as I take this ride

To be above the tree's and see the world around
To hear the birds, so gentle is they're sweet sound.
To feel that breeze upon my wind swept face
As I fly upon this animal at such a gentle pace

An animal of myth but in my sight is true
To hold it's head high with pride to not be blue
The strength of such fine powerful wings
A softness does it's heart and soul sing

Such dignity and elegance it move's with ease
To grace the land and leave not a breeze
So soft are those feathers within those strong wings
So tender they are, as they surround me, my heart sings

So to ride upon this creature so mild and strong
Is a gift of love to treasure that will never be gone
To have this creature grace me with such a moment
One that I will cherish with such fine sentiment

Will Tomorrow

The sun is shining outside that window,
But it's not so warm it's mellow,
Upon the back of a cloudy day,
Will tomorrow bring a warmer day ?

Will tomorrow see the sky's so blue ?
Where it's open and warm for me and you,
Where in the gardens we can rest,
Be free from work to be our best.

Where the wonders of the world rise that day,
Where the squirrel round the back can play.
Where the birds shall swoop from tree to tree,
Upon the back of a clear day so free.

Will tomorrow be the day we await ?
Where we can rest with no hallowed debate
To free our core from the chains around
To relax with the oceans pulsing sound

Will tomorrow see the change so long due ?
Where the sun shall shine to chase the blues
Where the earth is healed and your spirit to
Tomorrow will bring the hope to start anew.

Those Wings

I'm carried along, with a strength so strong,
With a beat of the drum, my inner song,
That now for the very first time,
I see those wings as they shine,

Within that vibrant hue of golden light,
That warms the heart to such a delight.
Caring wings from one so old,
From freedom that teaches us to be bold

Where our growing spirit learns the fight,
That keeps our fire burning long into the night
As I'm carried along I learn how to pray,
To do thing's my way along the growing highway,

With those wings at my side,
Learning the lesson of nothing to hide
Carried through the shadows into a lighter place to be,
I feel the burdens lift as those wings set me free

To then see the light reflect to rainbows bright,
From those soft caring wings of such delight.
Where all pain is gone as the rain does fall
Where in it's place is strength, I pray I don't stall

As those wings I find come from angels all around
I know that love is never gone but always found
Peace fills the mind as I am guided this warm day
Knowing my travels are pure along the growing highway

And so as I'm carried with a strength so strong
I know that life will forever hum it's peaceful song
Through anything we can travel With our pride
That life is there to have fun and not to hide.

The Phoenix

Have you seen a bird so free,
One that should rise from the ashen ground to be,
Full of colour within my mind such a sight,
It leaves a trail of colour such a delight,
To rise and fall when time is called to rise once more,
From devastation when flames lash out and fade away
Knowing when the remains cool, It's ash shall be gray,
So silent has it fallen without the fire-bird song
Gone once more but not got long,

Give it a moment and life is reborn.
For eternity this sacred bird shall fly,
From the dawn of time it chose to rise soaring high
Co-existence within each life long cycle
Magic and mystery This the fire-bird shall be
A challenge to face the road again ever free
Over and over in the cycles with us it chooses to be
In our minds and always free above the lands to call
To sing it's song of revival for one and all

Flames of Life

Flames of life and learning be
Found in love treasured free
Where arts of words come alive
Upon the pages do they jive

Where flames of learning grow so bright
To aid you on in yearn est of night
Where fear be shattered into tiny shards
Where stars light up each and every yard

Flames of fire alive in side us be
Spur us on for what will be will be
Shadows gone in place of light
For it grows with the fire so bright

No page left unturned this dawning day
Where your answers are found upon your way
Where not the river can diminish your flame of fire
Where not your fear over comes your trust and desire

Where peace alas may still elude our touch
Where we can say I love you very much
Where we can see with clarity so clear
Where trust in self and others defeat that fear

Where flames grow in speed as do you in strength
Where learning then comes in to support your strength
Where your courage shines like the bright stars of night
Where your passion still grows strong in your dazzling light

Flames of life grow deep within your core
They cover the land from shore to shore
They bring new life of that we need
New changes so that in us we may succeed

Grace Of Meadow

Sat upon the mossy rock in the meadow,
Was a butterfly of golden yellow,
So still it chose to stay,
In the warmth of this a sunny day,

To gaze your eye's upon it's grace,
In nature it's essence is in place,
Transformation of your mind to clarity,
Where things now become so steady

To then notice the purple flower down on my right,
Surrounded by daisy's in a ring of white,
A gentle place for where it stands tall,
In it's spot even with strong wind it shall not fall

Now over to the right there is another circle round
Within this spot an Angel is now found
Not of form but of that gentle light
It's essence such a tender pure sight

Such calm clarity fills this meadow spreading free
To hear the words, Go with the wind and what you see
Free yourself from all chains We are here
We will guide you, you have nothing to fear

Here i am let's stay strong

Walk With Me

Come now, let's take a walk at dawn,
Through the arch forever strong,
See the path before your eye's,
That's the road that reaches high,

Come with me to a peaceful place in time,
To a place were there is no line
Pass the turning tide let it go inside
Pass the torments come don't hide

Come walk with me, lend me your hand
Walk with me there will be no reprimand
All I ask is that you walk with me
Settle your doubt and just be free

Share your questions ease your thoughts
Know your way where answers are sought
Know that life is a test of faith that's pure
Where love is full of that I'm sure

Pure Heart

I know a heart so gentle and pure
A friend for life of that I'm sure
A modest soul beyond many years
Able enough to ease your fears

Encouraging you forwards forever more
Who will speak they're mind as done before
who loves to laugh and loves to play
who's words live long all through the day

Who put's others first and sees to self last,
Who knows when to let things go past,
Who's shoulders are broad and bright,
Who's love is clear each and every night

Through each day that pure heart is there,
Who's caring heart is full of flare
Who's love for you is endless that is clear,
Who holds you tight when you show fear

I know this heart not fully that is true
In honest faith it guides me so I'm never blue
A rose to treasure with no obvious thorn
To know within that love lives on from where it's born

Unravel The Pages.

Delve into the depths as the pages unravel.
To fill you with magical mystery as you travel,
As the meaning of life unfolds,
To each they're own story is told.

No secrets will ever be revealed
That book is strong and tightly sealed
Transported to a place where magic is found
Where the music of nature is all around

With fields filled with Unicorns and dragons abode
Where questions and answers are upon every road
Where faeries dance and the elves sing
Where magic and love is tender like a golden wing

Where magic connects to the unknown and fantasy
Where love is truth and all things a mystery
Where balance is free and all flowers bloom
Where all around is nature's sweet perfume

Where upon the pages of this unfolding book
There is meadows and a steady running brook
Where all worry is gone and peace lives on
And so this tale ends here until tomorrows dawn.

Be One Be Whole

I tread with caution as I weave through these trees,
To turn my head at every sound upon the breeze,
With words in the air and eye's that stare,
I keep watch for any signs of a bear

No bears are here the voices call out,
This place is sacred enjoy your walk about.
Revive the instinct within your heart and soul
Let your mind and body be one be whole

You come in search of answers but you see,
You know within what's right to set you free,
Come and join me by the strong tall tree,
Sit upon the roots, close your eyes and see

You won't see me but know my energy is clear
I'll grant you safety, in this place have no fear
I am with you always in all that you do
And all my love is unconditional and sent to you

I dare not doubt those words spoken to me
I trust those words, with truth I feel them to be
In safety I know I can relax now upon this sturdy tree
So much so I close my eyes and there I am, I am free.

Such a place of peace and contented bliss
In nature and mind a place not to miss
Where peace is granted and love is found
Where I can be one be whole in natures sound.

Wolf Heart

A wolf heart beats with intensity,
It's strength a growing curiosity,
Call to me my animal kin.
I feel your spirit waver within.

Sing to me your powerful song.
Show the world the pack remains strong.
Over under near or far rejoice the call is now awake,
Within the hearts wolf soul shall not break

With your direction our way is found
Paths be guided by your magical sound
Be it night or be it day
The trusted wolf will know the way

The elixir of life beats through every vein
Through yours and mine it's all the same
The air that surrounds your mysterious face
I take pleasure in seeing your profound grace

When our hearts beat together as one this night
In unison our spirits grow close they don't fight
Call to me my wolf brother our souls are one
Sing your song as I beat the awaiting drum

Your heart is strong, so full of love and compassion
So misunderstood and never conforming to fashion
Your pride alive burns from your ashen eyes
To light up my heart and the darkest of skies

Jennifer Don (c) 2010

A Gift

Within your hand and that of mine,
There is a gift so divine,
Will you share yours with me,
And I will share mine so you see.

How the balance unfolds like tiny wings,
How life will in it's calm truly sing
How that gift will bring such joy,
Even when some are shy or coy,

Within the hearts we are the same,
The love to give is surly no bane
No pain to bare alone and cold,
Take my hand and let's be bold,

Let's share those wings for all to see,
How life with love is where we'll be
Little flutters pass from one to another
Where in life we are one with earth our mother.

Jennifer Don (c)2010

Self Pride

I have searched and searched,
Alas no off switch so now I perch,
Unfolded from the pages that turn,
As I sit and listen to that drum,

Where upon a moment a whispered word,
To reveal the wings of such a proud bird
Unfold now in all it's glory and pride,
An elegant hawk show's no earthly divide,

Where upon it's knowledge the sound it free,
Where in it's sight it's path to see
A gentle soul a heart of gold
Tender wise and always bold.

Such elegance now before my sight
Oh how she shines in that light
Not fearful of my being ever near
So proud she stands with no fear.

Alas my mind starts to chase
My thoughts upon the page and place
That delves to the heart where spirit be
Where nature, live and all are free

Jennifer Don (c) 2010

Care Free

Through golden fields I walk in dreams,
Towards the steady flowing shallow stream,
Under that warm sun of new spring's day,
Where travel is light in any way.

When then I can sit, free to think and see
By the strong and winding tree is where I'll be
So when the wildlife of nature comes my way
I can relax and admire the world today.

To watch those butterfly's flutter on by
To gaze on out and see the birds in the sky
To feel the love that floods the land
To feel the balance re-align under hand

To watch the deer come down and play
How they dance in that carefree way
How in this place everything is free
Without a worry to hold, as it should be

Silent Mind Version 1

Silence of the mind be oblivion
To the peace fold of thought,
Though gentle does words trickle open minds
clear vision aids for clarity in that way word thinking

So sit and listen to the wind that blows
Listen for she calls to you the goddess above
Whom shines to you in blessed wonder
So take flight upon the dove in the night

For there in the wind silent whispers come to you
Filled with words of love no reason for you to fear
Let yourself relax and allow your mind to grow
In time your thoughts will soon clear

Where clarity is not dazed and sight be near
As Silence bring wonder and amazement
To that silent shallow beating heart of night
So to will it aid that impulse to relax your sight

So free the mind and allow the world to flow
Nature's sound of peace to calm that inner beast
So put to rest those worries that you hold
Your strength it grows now it's time to be bold

Jennifer Don (c) 2010

Treasure The Pleasure

To respect, to give, to grant
To wish and dream to think
The wonders of the world and actions set
Is one of action upon the mind of hope

To see beyond the view so clear
To know the truth is nothing to fear
To see the shadows fade to gray
TO feel the love that keeps anger at bay

Is the wish of life one will make in time
To feel the glow and see light shine
To have control and all that's done
To make they're way and be one

To cherish the moment and hold them close
To fill with pride for those we love
To shed that tear for the pain that's felt
In return to release it all when we are done

Precious moments in the way of working life
To have some doubt and turn it around
The questions then asked for answers be found
In life I live through moments it's sound

Jennifer Don (c)

Morning Mist

Why does the light shine so bright through morning mist,
Upon the winters shaded morning dawn,
In true fashion nature's show should not be missed,
As Nightingale sings that beautiful morning song

A melody of harmony filled with love divine
One to lighten the heart of many a heavy soul
To fill the land with love pure and divine
So strong is that melody so pure and whole

In that shining light of a wondrous sun rise
That morning mist dare's not dwell to hover
Beyond that morning mist does there contain life's surprise
Promise of delight surly in sight gives reason to ponder

Between the songs and light all shadows fade from sight
To spur the activity of nature's life all around
A gentle rhythm the pulse of life, the heart be light
And so the rose does awaken in flow of morning sound

Jennifer Don (c) 2010

Soaring Desire

A soaring desire to glide above the earth so high
To spread the eagle wings and touch the sky
The fresh air upon the face a pleasant sensation
Within the arms of life I fly with no hesitation

Upon the back of the Eagle in flight
Flying free through day and night
Seeing with new eyes the glory of nature
Thinking ahead to what's in the future

Living the moments as they come and go
Soaring free with each swooping flow
To call the call of life beyond the known
To feel inside the desire so venture the unknown

That searching direction upon the waves of flight
Always changing in shade and glorious light
To fear not the path that is hidden today
Knowing I'll follow what is my way

Jennifer Don (c) 2010

Answers Deep

From the fountain, information runs free,
To all who seek and want to be,
That security of mind and soul that's sought,
Is one battle that is hard fought,

But through the waves the energy is new,
So in return to think of what to do
To over come this challenge I'm in
To find those answers deep within

My bode of peace, the longing call
To steady my way before I fall
To seek the knowing to set me free
To have that peace of things to be

To find that place that's right for me
To look with my eyes so new of what's to see
To cherish the moments god gave to me
In life I struggle but my spirit is forever free

Jennifer Don (c) 2010

Rising Up

In a world where nothing is certain to be,
I know within I can be me,
When life passes in a daze,
I know things are never in set ways

When the birds do sing that glorious song
I know then that life around is ever stong
When the sun rises in the east each day
I know then that I can travel my way

Through the storms of winters night
I know that life is worth the fight
So in truth to carry on is worth it all
In myself I wont allow myself to fall

In return I know what shall be done
Through it all It can be won
To dream a dream and keep it strong
To love our life and it's song

To keep the desire ever burning
The flame in life always turning
Through the bad into the good I go
Always rising up following the flow

Dearest Angel

Unfold your new found golden wings
Absorb the wisdom this new path brings
My dearest angel can't you see
Your soul and spirit forever free

So soar on high and guide us on
Send your love upon each new dawn
Sent your strength, comfort and compassion
As we share the love with burning passion

My dearest angel can I call to you
My questions seek answers what shall I do
I know I'm the one to find them when it's right
But what if the time is never right

I'm calling out to you my friend above
Please aid those around in need of love
Aid them as you have always aided me
Show them life and help them to see

My dearest angel your spirit free
My love for you is for all to see
Those angel eyes and tender soft wings
Are all I see when the world shall sing

Arch of Peace

Great boughs above my head,
In near distance you shape an arch,
Reveals to me your hidden doors aloft,
Another dimension shines beyond your gates

Within these woods your source is free,
Elementals guide to guard this place,
Where all essence is in harmony,
I seek to know but feel the source

This place is pure and calls to me
The trees surround shade your light
In harmony in this zone I am free
Transported to places day or night

Each day a new door is opened for me
Each night a whisper echo's from your bode
Within this zone the mind is lost
Lost only to the sight that's revealed to me

Jennifer Don (c) 2010

Bid Farewell

And so when the time shall come
Take my hand I'll hold you up
Last farewells be sent in faith
As the journey unfolds new expectations

Sliver not to the corner and hide
Come forth and allow yourself to shine
Fear not the road that lays ahead
Fear not the ones you leave behind

All is well and each is loved
A rose is sent to your beloved
Where in return you will never be forgotten
Where from your memory they're strength will grow

So bid farewell the time has come
Take my hand and I'll lead the way
Beyond these doors the angels await
And in time you can return

To see those that you have left
To watch them as they make each day
To love them always so fly free
This is our journey and how it should be

Jennifer Don (c) 2010

This poem was written within the mind of how a spirit makes it's next journey, when we leave our vessel and bid a silent farewell to those who are then left behind

Tranquil River

Shallow river flowing free,
Your sound is pure straight to the heart,
Echo's of the wind come near to me,
This peaceful place my memory shall not part

For here tranquil, pleasant and care free
To lighten my energy from each passing day
Within my mind I shall travel back and see
That your beauty is never lost in anyway

Upon your banks I may sit and ponder
There to I fall into a steady slumber
Where dreams can be shown so I may wonder
The power in this place holds no number

As the water flows so steady by
It will cleanse my burdens and set me free
And so I'll sit and look to the sky
To thank the creator for this place that I see

Jennifer Don (c) 2010

Shadow's fade

Dawn's glow shall bring new life and hope,
Beyond it's burning glow life will ring with pride,
And the fires of life will glow like no other,
And thus at night the stars will shine for you

And so the path is walked and pondered over
Where then hidden commodores come to life,
Where dreams become reality and shadows fade to gray,
So then your hope can grow and shine ,

For no burden will hold you down,
No worries keep you tied in chains
Your strength will rise to set you free
And doubt can then just slip away

For truth in self will spur you on
Beyond any confounds you will grow
Awareness then shall ever adapt
So you shall shine among the world

Reach outwith your given grasp
Surrender to your dreams and be so free
Take my given hand and let me aid you see
No path shall you ever take alone

Feel And Still Believe

To feel and still believe the passing days are all but same,
To know and to follow is what life has to gain,
Follow your heart your soul will call,
Follow your truth and you shall not fall

To feel and still believe the world keeps turnings
The rotations of life's cycles to keep us moving
With mother earth and her restorative balance
The energy granted is no passing chance

To feel and still believe is the wonder so bright
How Father sky can hold so much essence and light
How through the air his wisdom comes to those who seek
Who's voice is heard to the soul he speaks

To feel and still believe dares protest the power within
To know that life is more so trust the beating heart within
While the rain is sent to cleanse the surface this day
Support is never far and I will never fade away

Storm of Life

Eruptions of abrupt emotions to shudder out control,
When feeling at a loss not knowing where to roll.
Trembles quiver through the veins of life inside,
Never truly understanding whether to stay or hide

Unable to shift the dimensions of which time remains,
To shift the focus and feel normal again,
To make new what the world dares to give,
For there is always reasons to go on and live

For the sun that warms the hearts of many to the core
Or the water that runs fluent and free right to the shore
Or the birds that sing in the trees so ample and free
So why can't I rejoice in life and set myself free

When these veins inside spring forth in action
Bringing convulsions of tears and emotion
How do I calm this volcano that erupts within
To calm the storm without ever giving in

Do I steady myself upon this rock by the foot of the Ocean,
To dip my foot into the waves and avoid the commotion,
Shall I listen to the birds that sing there song,
Can I stand strong and weather the continued Storm

New World

Love shine's it's light deep within our hearts
Where hope can be found, Let us turn the world around
For our hope holds our paths so that we will never part
Where all thoughts can unite and escape into the surround

For we are the people of the world today
For our children of tomorrow let's make a change
Let's share our strength through the changing days
Let's show support without a need of rampage

Let's wear out pride so the world can see
Where our passion burns so bright
Let's unite to set our world ever free
Where the only darkness bound be the dark of night

For it's a new world with a new start
It's a new day, let's go all the way
Spread the love out to every part
Share with your voice, we're here to stay

For it's a new world, your the guardian now
So make a new start and let the past go
Stand with your pride, forget every row
So make a new start and follow the flow

Wolf Wisdom

With wolf wisdom a path be laid out for me,
As the pathfinder knows just what to see.
Within the darkness the light is found,
Where love can cherish and not be bound

Where from the nights sky the moon is a glow,
To shine my path by the river as it may flow,
Through the thick and thin it does not diminish,
Where wisdom grows from wolf it does not tarnish

To hear the cry is to know the soul within
To free the spirit to carry on and not give in
To source the road of what may be ahead
To know that passion in life is never dead

Wolf wisdom the insight given so dearly sought,
To know that answers be found and less be fought,
To carry all that is of need so close within,
Wolf wisdom grants your passage from deep within

A cry be a cry with a silent tear,
The wolf will guide and have no fear,
Follow the path that is shown your way,
To fear not the coming dawn of a new day

Wolf wisdom the spirit for me be free
My path is clear and shown to me
My vision granted from your trusted eyes
MY light be granted from the bodes of heavens skies

Cry Of The Wolf

The cry of the wolf,
The call of the wild,
Snakes it's way through the trees,
An eerie sound and yet so mild

As sounds of age old wisdom fill the air
Upon the still and blissful clear starry night,
And so the call sounds out again.
Clear and free in the moonlit night

It calls to me so vivid and free
To calm my soul within the night
To ease the mind upon my sleep
To fill the soul with love so bright

The cry of the wolf
A voice of wisdom a soul so free
Placement in the wild
Wolf wisdom calls out to me

Jennifer Don (c) 2010

Passing Waves

When the passing waves are weak,
Knowing only what you seek,
Could be a million miles away,
Could take tomorrow or today

When the passing waves are strong,
You can't help but hold on,
While on the journey of a life time.
Always on the look out for that sign

When the passing waves are mild,
Then comes alive that inner child,
Flamboyant, Loving and care free,
Remember what will be will be

Starry Starry Night

It's a starry starry night,
All around the world is sleeping,
In the night I hear you weeping,
I hear the sounds,
I see the sights,
I know the word,
And all the turns
I see the signs,
I know myself,
The world is truly sleeping,
I think the the world is dreaming, ...

It's a starry starry night,
I see you standing there,
Out by the shore,
Out by the tree,
Out on the lawn,
Out next to me,
I see the light and feel the warmth,
I know the touch,
I know the air,
I hear the voice upon the wind
While all around the world is sleeping.

It's a starry starry night
Within my thoughts upon my dreams
My hopes are real
The world it seems
Is now changing
It comes alive
With new life
Spreading love to all around
To share the hope
And ease our hearts
While all around the world is sleeping.

Grand Old Oak

A cooling summer night glimmers upon the Grand Old Oak,
For wisdom and strength spread from leave to root.
Deep below it's water is found and roots now soak.
To nourish this tree as people seek to look,

It's purity fills the air in rapturous dreams to be heard,
As Grand Old Oak sways in the gentle wind and dusky light,
Where from it's branches the Nightingale's song is heard.
In clarity as the dawn approaches from the night.

So to another night has passed on by in subtle clarity
As the morning sun rises in the west bringing the new day
Grand Old Oak stretches out his leaves in tremendous harmony
As the world about now comes to life, Grand Old Oak will happily sway

Eden

And so my words trail into echos,
Rebounding back and forth in shards of what were,
Clouded and dazed no longer fill my head,
My woes are gone and worries now dead,
In sight I see the garden bloom,
Where carnations spray out in colours of all sorts,
Where the birds come and go like leaves in the wind
And so too does the bows of the trees sway in harmony,
As earth dances in her melody this day,
So too does my heart sigh a sigh of relief.
Mere peace in the balance now takes hold
A detox to the mind now so clear in sight
A joy to watch the world turn by
When the animals come and go carefree
In this astonishing garden upon the earth
A treasure to see how wonders can be
How magic is within our grasp when bounds are gone

A wisp of wind and a flicker gone past
Attractions grow and life does dance
As the swaying grass weaves it's magic
As the butterfly soon comes to land
Into the depths there's a hidden core
A source of love that's deep and sensual
And so it continues this peace of mine
Hidden within the paradise of harmony
Time is not of essence to escape the outside
So to here I sit in perfect balance truly given
No worries to face the chains are gone
Within the wind a subtle sweet tune
Aromas weave there way around the notes
Bouncing through even the smallest of reaches
And so life is for living in the magic where it dwells
No words be needed for peace is what is needed.
It's time to rest within this place of Eden

Restful Slumber

On the turn of every new night
I draw within my shining light
Slowly pulling each petal in
Drawing resources deep within

Edging each night to restful slumber
Peace of mind and dreams to remember
Through each night do I close my door
Closing to silent world so I may soar

Within the night my wings are free
Traveling to new heights and places to see
Soaring over the valleys below
Watching rainbow rivers as they flow

Twisting and turning by the river bed
Beyond the banks roses ever so red
New worlds full of wonder and delight
Sensational aspects and astounding light

Where all worries and woes will slip away
Fading from the mind to a place they will stay
Where warmth will fill every vacant cavern inside
To which wisdom grows forever to reside

So as I slumber in the peace of night
Perhaps I'll gain some new insight
To wake up in the morning fresh and free
To reflect the journeys shown to me

Night Storm

As a thunderous crack echo's through the sky
You can hear Mother Earth groan and sigh
As the heavens above open for rain to fall below
Lashing down, bounding off every surface as it goes

Taking shelter from within the cave this stormy night
A pack of wolves howl and whimper with the flashes of light
Staying warm awaiting for the storm to pass on by
One sits at the entrance and howls out to Father Sky

With more sudden flashes of rain and light
The storm is growing in all it's might
With another deafening boom throughout the land
Is this Mother Earth's way of a reprimand

Within the wilderness natures display of magnificence goes on
The wind now whistling through the trees it's hours to dawn
Such display or power it's natures true essence astounding
All the while the animals of the land remain in hiding

Sheltering from the harsh storm in full swing
The wind whistling with a song to sing
All through the night may the storm last
As it wont be long before the storm has past

Our Troops

Bravery in the heart of the homeland
Where pride follows with no demand
Where our troops stand together as one
Where they know there work is never done

Whether home or away there pride will stay
For the fallen they will always pray
In there memory they dare battle on
Then when they rest they sing their song

Many voices sing the same deepening call
Pray they remain strong for no man to fall
Pray they're safe return to spouse's, daughters and sons
Send out your thoughts as they go on the reconnaissance

For out on the front-line the work is hard
Hearts on sleeves as they defend the home guard
For our safety the take this challenge as one
As a unit they aim for one day to return

So spare a thought for our troops our warriors
Men and Women of the forces, our saviours
With bravery and pride always in they're hearts
For they're country they play there parts

Does One Dare

Does one dare to take the chance the task aglow,
To make a move and watch it flow,
Does one dare to dare a passing glance,
A moment of madness or just fine chance

Does one dare to stand for strength,
To take the blow and move one length,
Does one dare to see with those eyes tonight,
A change so strong and yet so light

Does one dare to dare,
To make it even fair,
Does one dare to take the dance,
Of passion filled and take the chance

Does one dare to make the move in sight,
Given that it is now dawn and light,
Does one dare to stand for what is right,
To hold what's true all through the night.

Does one dare to fall and be free,
To let it all go and open to see,
Does one dare to cut the chains that holds them down,
To cut the chords and be the clown without a frown

No Bounds

As the wolf rise's from the ether ground.
Never knowing where he be bound,
Flighty and free for all to see,
Loyal and wise he'll forever be,
Those amber eyes of passion, now alight,
Burning like hot coals in the night,
Filled with compassion and trust,
The art of survival would be a must

A shame now his vessel is long gone,
His memory and spirit free to live on,
He remember's the days where hunger was livid,
Where life to live was ever so vivid
Where fun was granted in the passing day
Where he could do it all his own way
Somethings he knows now do not alter
His love for live he cannot falter

Free to share his wisdom of the passing age
To those who'll listen and turn the page
Free to steer the young and the old
The warriors who are growing bold
The singer's in the wild of night
By the dancing fires growing light
And soon his song be sung gentle and clear
Sharing the knowledge of nothing to fear

No bounds to which will keep him down
For he is free and will not frown
His love to share is known to all
His strength will aid you if you fall
He will lead you to your path this day
Follow him upon your way
No bounds to which will cloud his vision
Clarity is clear and so is life's mission

A Rose And You.

A gentle aroma now fills the air
Subtle, sweet, soft and fair
Water on the petals, the morning dew
A picture so sweet, just like you

Frozen in time for me to see
To hold on tight, set me free
To carry on surrounded in hope
I'm holding on without the rope

Roses are sweet and tender too
Sharp, straight to the point, just like you
Strong on the outside, soft within
Determination, It wont give in

So let's carry on remaining strong
Listen to the birds, they sing they're song
The music of life, It fills the air
The subtle whispers through my hair

Memories frozen in time for me to see
To hold on tight, set me free
To carry on surrounded in hope
I'm holding on without the rope

As I look to the clock now it's eleven:eleven
It rings out to me as the number of Heaven
Where the garden of Eden is shrouded in light
It's a beautiful sight even through the night

Where roses bloom, casting rainbows for you
Where the light you see is pure and true
Where our thoughts are only an earshot away
But please, please don't fade away

Memories frozen in time for me to see
To hold on tight, set me free
To carry on surrounded in hope
I'm holding on without the rope

If I could have another moment with you
I'd say all the things I've been meaning to
I would do anything to feel your touch
To tell you how I miss you oh so much

When I gaze upon the rose and you
I see how much I really miss you
I'll treasure all the memories I have inside
I know I wont ever let them hide

Frozen in time for me to see
To hold on tight, set me free
To carry on surrounded in hope
I'm holding on without the rope

The rose a tender flower in bloom
A reminder that I'll see you soon
Now falls that silent single tear
Of love that shows forever so clear

Wolf So White

As the twisted world around me
Now shudders in the deepening night
A cry so eerie emanates from the woodland so free
Draped in magic and mystery of the moonlight

The echo of that cry rippling through my veins
Sending out a wave of comfort a sense of nothing to fear
Then all goes quite and is now still again
I gaze out to the valley before me lit up so clear

A moment of silence to put order to confusion
Now shattered as a twig snaps over to my right
I glance over to see two eye's of amber infusion
I do not fear those eye's lit up by moonlight

Within those eyes is peace and wisdom so pure and free
With my eyes now adjusting on this eerie calm night
My vision extends beyond those eyes a wolf I see
A wolf who stand's sharp and is ever so white

Does not growl or give cause to show fear
Looking in those eyes I see the soul so misunderstood
One of power and compassion for now it's so clear
To reach out with the mind and look under the hood

So magnificent and proud he stands under the light
Allowing me to approach him so close now I stand
He comes forward his head under my hand in the night
His coat so soft and smooth a comfort to the palm of my hand

Now filled with warmth and peace inside
My worries now gone, the way made clear tonight
That white wolf to my side he now resides
He's been there always, only now he's so clear in light

Transformation

Transform your focus, your criteria, your desire
Like the phoenix be reborn from the fire
Come alive in the morning with passion new
While the rivers run sending energy to you

Come now shed that shell in which you hide
Come now awaken the power within you, it does reside
Flighty and free ready to start over again
Where you will take control now take the reigns

Up from the ashes of the past you rise
A new beginning filled with many a surprise
Casting aside the old making way for the new
A positive ground for you to stand and admire the view

Changing aspects within your awareness, arise this dawn
New life and passion comes to you in morning song
Spread your new wings of flight, lets soar to a new height
Freedom in your eyes your spirit now has reason to fight

From the fire of which you're reborn in shining light
Comes the strength that stays forever growing by moonlight
Giving you courage to take your next step on your way
On this the first step forward on your brand new day

Words

Where do those words come from
Some be smooth and others like a storm
Growing like waves pounding my thoughts
Being tossed back and forth a hard battle fought

Some with rapturous venom as words can sting
Others flow free you can't help but sing
Some come with a pleasant harmony
Some are playful others that of melancholy

Some complex and require understanding
Others like a puzzle wanting solving
Flowing together back and forth in day or night
Creating many wonder's that may shed some light

Where answers may be unknowingly found
Where Questions asked are often bound
Where one may take that creative leap
When put to paper some end in a heap

Some are kept for ever with pride in a book
Where it can then be opened for others to look
Some are made into something longer
What ever the cause words have something to offer

Follow On

I'll follow on all through the storm
I'll do my best to remain so strong
When the thunder fills the sky
When the tree's creak and sigh

I give thanks for life and wonder
For the miracles are no blunder
I'll follow on the road that's for me
I'll follow on with spirit's so free

As you lead the journey of a lifetime
Show me the way that's right beyond the line
On foot here and one foot there
There is magic in the air

I'll follow on through any challenge
They may be hard but I'll try and manage
I'll follow on through the wilderness song
That sings so loud from dusk till dawn

The Warrior

As the crackling fire burns before the warrior in the night
He remembers those now gone on to the light
Nursing his wounds, whilst others mourn and cry
When the pain is strong he wonders why

Why was his people victims of hate
Was there any need to debate
Why couldn't they share land and be one
As he sheds a single tear he mutters " surely It can be done"

He then stands and a soft chant emanates outwards
Head to the sky he cry's " Great spirit carry us forwards"
"Let us not suffer in such pain let us be proud"
"For those who stood with us we will be proud"

"Watch over them as they come now to join you"
"Let us see the way forward that is true"
Feeling weak from his own wounds he sits again
For his strength and muster he soon will regain

The camp behind the warrior fades into silence
Yet he remains to listen to the growing silence
By the warmth of the glowing embers he stays
For his land and people they're safety he prays

Jennifer Don (c)

Listen... Can Your Hear?

Can you hear the drums calling out to you,
Listen close because what come's next is true.
Sit in the silence and listen clear,
Be still now and have no fear,

Go into the silence and sit a while,
Listen for the sounds that travel a mile,
Listen for he calls out to you,
Listen what will you do...

The drummer keeps is beat
Will you then keep your feet?
Will you keep a clear head?
Clearing all the clinging dread

Listen to the story sung to you
The voice is carried just of you
The whispers of an angel
Offer words with no label

Coincide to that drumming beat
Can't you see them tapping there feet
Listen to what is said from the light
Listen close it's full of delight

Jennifer Don (c)

Starlight Procession

Starlight procession guiding our way
Show us no heartache we pray today
Show us that of laughter so the world can unite
Show us that of compassion as you light up tonight

The stars above that guide us home
Pray we that you give us room to roam
Pray we that our demons of the past be gone
Pray we so that we can now more on

In your essence and astounding light above this night
Aid our woes and help our life be bright
Pray we that those who suffer find there way
Pray we that they see your light today

In glory and wonder above us so
Still in our eyes as the rivers flow
Fill us with the love we so seek
Help us to aid those in need now so weak

Wings Of Flight

Step aboard the wings of flight
Full of hope and honest light
To soar above the shore below
To fly so high and then so low

Step aboard the wings of flight
Through the day and through the night
Upon a journey made for you
Where dreams they really do come true

Step aboard the wings of flight
Absorbing such a wondrous sight
With new surprises all the time
Set for you so there is no line

Step aboard the wings of flight
Full of grace in all delight
Banish all the shadows now
Stand up tall and take a bow

Flourish

Let me give to you what I will give of mine
Of bonds so strong and love so divine
Of paths never to be broken
And memories unable to be taken

The very foundation of compassion
Grow's like rose's in full fashion
Flourishing with pride they shine as the sun
With comfort knowing things can be done

Where triumph gains the steady ground
Avoiding the snare's all around
Devotion grows with your dedication
And you develop growing communication

Learning to follow your will your way
Taking another step forward each day
So let me share with you what i give of mine
The courage to learn in love so divine

Unknown Road

On the verge of a new year turning,
Where one ends another is just beginning,
To cast aside the pain of the past,
To carry on knowing true love will last,

The coming new days shine with rays so bright,
Promising desires to set even the darkest mind alight
With hope the power carried forwards in our heart
With our dreams in mind our passion dares not part

The road ahead unknown to all
Where one can make new friends and have a ball
Never ending does the road proceed ahead
where the past is a long time gone no need for dread

The promise of hope and dreams a time of change to come
what will the new year bring the turning tide has begun
so raise a glass in fine fettle to those who stand to your side
Bless all who have passed you by for love does not hide

Stand with pride in your heart and dreams in your mind
For comforts of past find places to reside
The coming year presents new challenges and insight
Fear not the unknown road for there will always be light

Star Above

Queuing queuing always waiting
Waiting in line patience failing
Shopper's bustling through the streets
Grabbing the last of those Christmas treats

Snow is falling all around
Christmas now in every surround
Children playing running singing chanting
Waiting for good festive tiding

Parents hiding those last minute presents
Sharing the story's of what Christmas represents
To share in the truth of this loving season
For I can't name such a worthier reason

The Birth of Christ in such stable bare
On that morning with no decorative flare
Of the Journey the wise men did partake
To those gifts they took and did not break

From the star above that led the way
To those events we celebrate Christmas day
Share the memories and give thanks at dinner
For reason's given Christmas is a winner

Those logs now burn on that tender fire
Giving warm glows when people begin to tire
With board games now upon the table
Family's sharing some old family fable

Echo's

Oh echo's in the wind how I long to hear your voice
Clear as day I wish it was so, I long hear those words
Echoing through time for all to gain for some it's but noise
For others it is but needed wisdom in those floating words

Oh for echo's in the elongated cave
I want to sit and listen, to let things just be
While I sit in this semi darkened cave
I gaze in all directions seeing what there is to see

When echo's of your words now fade
Another sound beckons the call to be heard
This one is gentle and sounds like a marching parade
A gentle rhythmic drumming so clear can it be heard

While this sound brings in that peace
To which I can relax and take in the coming night
Other thoughts draw a close and soon the cease
Gentle memories come with those echos under moonlight

That familiar voice so longed for but never forgotten memories
A happy thought to hold close within the heart
An echo of the past that's so close and wrapped within more memories
Forever treasured echo's that I wont ever let part

Jennifer Don (c)

Silence

Silence, what is silence
For there is no echo
For there is no sound
The silence is all around
When the world goes to sleep

In the night the silence grows
Not entirely as nothing stops
But silence is peace no sound
There be no voice to awaken
There only be the tune of earth

The birds that sing for your silence
The tree's that talk in the wind
The grass that bends and sways
The animals communicating
From one to another the silence invokes

It's peaces springs forth
It aids the thoughts of clarity
It aids the steady mind
The silence merely metaphor
For in the silence is many sounds

Jennifer Don (c)

December 02, 2009

Sometimes

Sometimes I wish for that little bit of peace
To still the mind, for noise to cease
Sometimes I pray for things to change
Knowing that in time things change with age

Sometimes I sit and ponder the world today
Trying to find the right words to say
Sometimes I sit and shed a tear or two
For reasons within that be so few

Sometimes I'm not myself but remain with pride
For I know within I have nothing to hide
Sometimes I see things that others may miss
Things aren't as the seem so don't dismiss

Sometimes I wish I was alone to think
But then I think I don't want to sink
Sometimes I wish that others will understand
To know how things are with out any reprimand

Sometimes I wish that the way to go was so clear
So that I may then have nothing to fear
Sometimes I Think of those who give support
Courage then builds as does surround support

Contortions

A fire ravages within my ether soul
Contorting what I've known to distant mere memories
Anger grows with seeing revenge a goal
But then to seek revenge wont that cause more rift than harmonies

Growing now with passion burning scarlet red within
Burdens and past taking its grasp tortured for one deed
Redness fills the sky is this my injustice that deepens within
Can I find the courage to proceed and follow every need

The lusting greed when anger rises
Spreading about like power ruling the mind
Uncovering a core supply of many hidden surprises
To beseech thee in power equal to that of strongest wind

Jennifer Don (c)

This was written months ago but was never finished and looking over it now, it's better left the way it is, for any attempt to change it removes the thought and what ever purpose there was behind it which I cant remember now as to what that was, or as to why I had written what I did but there you that's contortions for you

Release

What have I lost and what have I found
Carrying on with the growing sound
Flowing the beat right up the street
If I need a break i'll take a seat

If you need a moment come to me
Come on let your spirit be free
Reach the sky and aim so high
Lighten the mood release that sigh

I shed all my worries through the night
Lightened my load without a fight
Lost in the darkness no not me
Shed all my worries now im free

What I did find it's all around
Instead of being lost I am found
Surrounding me is the love that's here
It's taking away the shadow and fear

So come on now let's have some fun
Together we can get things done
Come along and have a talk
Better still let's go for a walk

Time

Who would think time would fly so fast
Before we know it's all in the past
But some things will always remain
Simple memories arise again

What's gone we can't undo
In the now we can carry on through
On to tomorrow a new day awaits
Oh how we love these earthly rates

For mother earth and the turning tide
She creates the caves and places to hide
The flowing energy of the steady water
Where some can watch the playful otter

When Father sky decides the weather
Through rain or shine we can stand together
When the birds they fly so high
With the freedom we long for so we just sigh

In the clear of night the stars will shine
A guidance to what's yours and then what's mine
Under the stars while in the dark the night so still
The light is clear and our thoughts go where they will

Where memories come to life like a dancing flame
When we are told to shed the self created blame
Where all doubts are cast aside to make way
For room for light and positives this day

So what has gone before you is now behind you
So aim to look forward in all you do
Respect yourself and what's in your surround
For there's more to life that what's seen around

For Mother Earth is past, Future and ever present
Father Sky is much the same always omnipresent
Time, yes it's fast but don't wish it away
Take the step one at a time and enjoy today

Guided

Guided by the Harmony
Guided by the love in me
Following along to that soulful song
Fast or slow, It's never too long

Twisting and turning along the road I go
Like following a river watching it flow
Steady steps with that song in heart
Guided by things that wont ever part

Gazing up at the starlings in the Sky
Wondering what it's like to be free so high
Watching all the critters as the day moves on
Watching all go by until my thoughts are gone

Guided in so many ways
Never giving up through the days
Loving life for what it may offer
The magic and mystery rooted from a mother

As the sun now set's in the west
It's time now to get some rest
Wrapped in the comfort of knowing
Love is bound and ever growing

As I Wake

As I wake up in the morning
As all shadows start to fade
As the new day is now dawning
I listen to the music being played

My nights of dreaming of you
Fade so fast from my memory
As sunlight bounces of the morning dew
Last nights dream is now history

The dream is gone much like you
But memories of you in my heart do stay
Filled again with the feelings I once knew
Happy times are now back to stay

The tears, they do remain
But the memories of you are strong
They may fall like droplet's of rain
But you will always live on

In our memory and our hearts
That bond can never be broken
The love that was shared will never part
It remains a tender token

I know your here with me
I can tell, I hear your song
I know your happy and your free
You are where you belong

We remain connected always within
In more ways than just one, it's true
I know you will guide me so I wont give in
You'll be there in all I go through

In The Silence

As I sit in younder silence through the night
Trying not to think of anything but peace in the moonlight
Clearing the mind of all the drabble and shadow
Eluding the grasp of darkness in the meddow

Through the silence a sound rings clear
A flutter of fear for the sound is near
The echo in the wind is carried far across the land
Then a flash of light and an outstreched hand

A spoken word of reasurance this very night
Comfort brought by the warmth of that light
Those words that are spoken are very clear
Comforting enough to take away any fear

From there the light is gone but stars shine bright
The twinking stars bring hope in the light
A knowing that soon things will be clear
Awarness that there is nothing really to fear

Within the silence thoughts now reside
For there is peace, no reason to hide
Clarity clears any doubt from my mind
And now the mind can truly unwind

Jennifer Don (c)

Hope

The Joy of life's desires
Burning brighter than treachorous fires
Filled with hope beaming bright
That inner light keeps growing in the night

Ahh Hope a powerful thing indeed
A hope for every wonder and need
The candle of light within the dark
The hope of life with Noah's Ark

As the falling rain clears the air
Changes aspects that may seem fair
Fair or not the balance is clear
And from within hope stays near

Hope a powerful desire of life's journey
No one can take it from you not even for money
That flame that spurs you on through all
Through the shadows into light we have a ball

Swirling Confusion

Trapped within a vortex of thoughts
Spinning ideas mixed with emotions of all sorts
Further within there is a place where I wont go
Where there is things I hide you wont want to know

Into the darkness of the abyss is were they stay
Left to stay forgotten about untill another day,
Swirling in thoughs weaving through them all
Sometimes then I hit a brick wall

To stumble a little then regain my place
Moving around and setting another pace.
Finding a new direction there to take
Seeking answers I may have to pause for a break

To listen to the wind or the call of nature
To read the sounds not worry about my future
Within the confusion why isnt there more time
Grant me space while I pray for things to be fine

Jennifer Don (c)

Not sure where this one came from, again it might have been something that I was picking up from a friend for I know that its not me to feel this way and It wasnt how I felt when I was writing.

Dreaming

Wish I was dreaming to be in a place pain free
Dreaming of lands filled with hope for you and me
Dreaming of the gentle flowing tide
Dreaming always to lose the feeling of having to hide

Dreaming of lands where there is peace and serenity
Dreaming of things where it might be destiny
Dreaming where dreams really do come true
Of places where we will all pull through

In the lands where we can relax and just be
Where our sprit is completely free
where conflict and war is none in land so sound
No need of chains for whats to be bound

Where a person is free to be as they are
Where travel is easy and no need for a car
Dreaming of change and possibility
Dreaming of fufiling one's Destiny

Dreaming of being complete to make on happy
Dreaming of things that could even be soppy
Dreaming fills the heart with Passion
Dreaming fills the soul with compassion

Jennifer Don (c)

Lost Within

I'm lost within my mind feeling confused
Often left wondering why do I get refused
Have I done something wrong would you tell me
Is it because I am not how you want me to be

I am lost within myself its true
I often struggle to find my way through
From the morning when I wake
To the night when the skies may break

Uncertainty draws in searching nearer to me,
Why can't it leave to let me be
In the cold of night I seek shelter from pain
Within the arms of one close I can't feel the rain

Why cant I have the comfort that I seek
To be cared for so things don't seem so bleak
Why can't I be shown some promise in Life
Can someone please take away that strife

Why can't I have some of the good things like you
I have my dreams shouldnt I be granted them to
Instead my world seems to come crashing down
I wish things would sooner turn around.

Jennifer Don (c)

Another one where I was picking up from someone else.

One Voice Of Change

A child was seen talking to the sky
Gazing up, hands clasped with a tear in his eye
It was heard what he did say
I still remember the story to this day
His voice was one with his surround
It did seem he was attuned to all around
His body so small and tender very gentle
His cry was loud to the sky but he did waver little

Oh dear father above me now please dont go
Please can you tell me why is it so?
Please can you tell me why the hunger and pain?
Please why is there no shelter for me when it may rain?
Please dear father in the sky listen to my cry
Can't you see these tears that fill my eyes?
Is this how It is meant to be?
Please can you tell me why is it me?

Please dear father why do I suffer?
Am I not a child of God born to my mother?
Do I not deserve to be loved as a child of God?
Am I not worthy of the good in life dear lord?
Have I upset you in anyway?
Can you tell me why I suffer this way?
Do I not deserve to live as most children do?
To learn and play please I ask these of you

As the boy filled deep with sadness inside
For tramua filled his life he had no place to hide
Tears now fluently streaming down his precious face
Flowing downwards in the most steady pace
A child so young should not suffer so
What can you do and where can you do
He regained him self and wiped those tears
Then came a reply to his cry as if to settle those fears

My dear child there on earth's ground
I will not leave you I am all around
How can I answer in a way you will understand
You have opened your heart and felt first hand
I fill with sorrow when I think of what i bestowed to you
When I think of all the pain and sorrow that you go through
Knowing its within my power to change these ways
Yet if I interviened how will you all learn through the days

My dear child do not cry please understand
I grant you my unconditional love so you may stand
I grant you the freedom of choice
You already know how to use your voice
I'll grant you wisdom and strength to aid you
To help the world become aware of those that suffer like you
I gave you these things to make a difference
No change will happen in an instance

Your are my beloved child I promise you
Time will change and it starts with you
My precious child please do not cry anymore
I will carry you when your burdens are sore
I will lift you up when the time is right
My love for you goes on through the day and night
Your pain and suffering will aid to the change in life
When others become aware of the pain that is rife

I am sorry that it was you I chose to bestow my greatest gift
But I could not see a more worthier person whom i would sooner lift
I could see no other better for this role than you
A glimmer in hope in all that you will do
YOu were brave when you came asking of me
You will be rewarded and soon you will see
You are the first who saught answers for the pain
The awareness of others will change you do not suffer in vain.

Uncertainty

Even through the dark what I feel is real
Deep inside is all the pain I feel
Thrown away into the abyss where it will stay
A new day dawns and all is on it's way

Through the storms i'm all confused
I'm torn in two ill be refused
The mind is running overtime
I hope it don't last I long to be fine

My heart bleeds forgive through my burdens adue
I call for closure forgive me please I ask of you
Heal my wounds wont you please im in pain
Cleanse my soul in the showers of rain

I'm drowning in the tears
Please take away these fears
Release my heart from that steely grip
Release me please before it may rip

I'm in a point of uncertainty
It's how I feel it's insanity
It's not so real you to but me
It's there inside I want to be free

This poem isnt about me but what I was picking up from a friend and well couldnt stop the fingers when the started lol

If Life Was Simple

If life was simple where would we be
Happier ? contented ? perhaps maybe
How we wish for a simple trail
One thats full of colour not so pale
Always seeking the easy choice along the way
Looking for the simple side all through the day

When in man's reality its not to be
Life isnt easy but we fail to see
The aspects in life in where we learn
Longing for love in comfort is what we yearn
Always trying to do what we percieve to be right
Always trying to not back down without a fight

Complex matters add some spice and diversity
Nothing is how it seems to be in mans mystery
But life however we see it to be
Is neither simple nor hard and so you see
Life is as it is filled with challenges to ungergo
Keeping us on our toes and so we flow

From one thing to the next always moving
Through our struggles and triumphs always loving
Where would we be without the challenge in life
Where would man be without his beloved wife
Where would you be if everything was simple you see
Without the challenge of life where would you be

Jennifer Don (c)

Wounded Soldier

A wounded soldier battles not in vain
Fighting on through all the pain
Fighting for what he believes is right
Defending the innocent with all his might

Carrying on for his very survival
The soldier battles not in denial
Thinking of his family back home
Wishing he was on holiday in rome

Dodging the bullets as he goes
Keeping a watchful eye for his foes
Over the noise shouts are heard
Soldiers calling out not being reserved

Gun fire blazing through the air
Soldiers trying to be fair
But in battle love is never last
Defense is first surival can be fast

Over the shouts a voice is heard
This isn't what I deserved
Please tell my wife and children
That I will always love them

The war crys of the wounded soldier
Rings through the air as night draws colder
A cry that will last in the mind forever
A cause they fight for we do well to remember

Jennifer Don (c)

Self Clarity

I've heard the words muttered so often now
Questions asked by many looking where to go
"Whats my purpose whats my role?"
"Can you please tell me I just want to know?"

Wanting to know but not searchin the answers
Wanting the clarity without doing the work
Asking others instead of themselves
Asking always looking for that bit luck

"Why am I here and why now?"
"Why all the pain such hurt?"
"Why do things have to be how they are?"
"Will things ever clear from this little rut?"

All aspects of living life it's lessons
Just look within your answers be
Lift the shell within and you will see
Maybe not now but soon it will be clear you'll see

"How do I see what is not there?"
"How can I Trust what I cannot see?"
Open your eyes within your mind look deep
Clear your doubt and let you flow to be free

Trust not that of that which is material
Trust in thyself for thou heart really does beat
Hold your own within your mind and vessel
Follow the growing intuation it's your beat

"But why, what is there really to see?"
"How can I be sure this feeling is really me?"
"Are things really clear when I search?"
"How come its still hazy Is this how its meant to be?"

Give some time your patience is needed
Allow it to come don't rush it, let it be as it will
Give to yourself your whole spirit within
Allow your mind to open, to clear to follow as you will

In time it will become clear to you
Have a little patience and believe in your self
It will not be clear to begin with but it is there
Allow things to come when time is right trust thyself

Not as it Seems

There's growing new sensations
And its not from Occupations
For the fire's burning deep
Through shadows it wont sleep

Turning all into the embers
Sharing light that is ever so tender
Sharing love all through the night
Discarding all in rising light

Leaving the past where is should be
Setting your heart and spirit free
Living in what is always the moment
Come om lets forget all that resentment

Bring to you the chants of life inside
For your choice in life is yours to decide
So stop looking back lets get moving on
Lets face the fears all through the dawn

For nothing is as clear as day
A times things won't go your way
And nothing is as dark as night
So look beyond the shadow into the light

Give yourself the hope that you seek
Loose the fear, regain your countrol over the week
Lets keep on running with the gift of life
And toss way all your worries that cause the strife

Shining down on you is the gift from above
The rain that falls is the tears of love
The sun that shines is the warmth inside
So chase that fear from where it may reside

Lost No More

In the point of no return the stars did shine
To guide the way forward away from the darkened mine
To show you the path that leads your way
To take your fears away as you pray
Moving on up to better sights
Leading away from the lonesome nights
A single path a single soul did take
A journey new then one did make

Reveling in the hope that new road did bring
A blossom of joy for the soul did sing
The shadows are fading now out of sight
As the single soul walks with many in the light
Once feeling lost and now more found
Things have turned themselves around
The darkness gone, the light returned
The path now clearer where fire once burned

Those once desolate plains now shrouded in love
The gift of life shines down from above
As the soul goes onwards to newer hights
The chains once bound are gone to reveal new sights
That trust of ones feelings regained in joy
That faith of thought knows its not a ploy
Desperation once filled that vessel deprived of light
No longer the case for this loved soul so bright

Who once wondered why things happened in the past
To learn they're pain would never last
Long into the night did that soul sit and ponder
The stillness of air helped them as they did wander
That time to sit was all that was needed in time
That soul did learn that all was going to be fine
Some patience and trust was all it took
The time to find oneself and truly look

Within honest open eyes so dazzled and bright
The founder of this soul beams with new found light
No longer lost along the way, now found and wrapped in love
A tender moment of rejoice with a fallen tear from above
A new awarness then did awaken within the heart a new fire
Within them growing that awaited strength and desire
Courage building the path now ever more clearer
As the morning light comes bringing hope ever nearer

Wolf of Night

In the silence of the ageing night
Shadows cast from the growing moonlight
With its rays now shining down upon the tree's
Where shadows dance like flames in the breeze

Within the moonlit shadows a wolf does hide
Hunting for food reveals the darker side
The hunger running through the wolf's pulsating veins
A need to eat before it rains

Oh the silent hungry wolf of night
Darting from shadow to shadow avoiding the light
Going to ground when the wind does blow
So as not to alert any nearby foe

So as not to reveal that hiding place
For if revealed the wolf will have to up a pace
The rain is near the wolf must move on
To track the scent of food before its gone

Through the bracken the wolf spots it's pray
Creeping closer over the branches in it's way
A growling lunge and it is done
Wolf can feast on the prize it's won

Once fed and full the wolf resounds it's song
A cry that rings through the chilling sky before dawn
The wolf now resides contented ready to rest
For now the wolf can sleep and rise its best

Jennifer Don (c)

Dream Time

Into the night our dreams do shine
Through magic and love so divine
They weave through the jungle of thought
Making they're way to places we cannot

In the mind our dreams are alive
In the zone where our soul can jump and jive
Where stars are home and lights aglow
Where wisdom comes from the river flow

Where the animals show no fear
No matter what is very near
Where anything is possible tonight
Dreams come alive in the night

Free to be that of which they are
Where the mind can journey far
Where the desires can play
In all desires which ever way

Where magic shines eternally alight
Shineing bright through the darkened night
Leading the journey your heart will beat
So dance to the rhythem follow your feet.

Voice of Thought

How do I express these feelings
To give an honest word with meanings
How can I control the way I feel
Without loosing how I really feel

How can I speak what I want to say
When upon this day im lost for words along the way
How do i adjust to new sensations
Adapting now with no explinations

How can I feel the way I do
Make sense of how I feel for you
When each one is really new to me
With a part of me now wanting to be free

How do I reach for the dreams I see inside
How do I balance each from where they reside
Making sense of it all is hard to do
When I feel this way about you

I can't control what I feel for you
I runs right through me in all I do
Exploring the feelings in steady flowing time
Living them through untill each is fine

I am hoping that you know within
That how I feel wont give in
What is this sensation running through me
Why when I think of you I yearn to be free

Is it normal to feel the way I do
Do you ever feel this way too
Each time I think or talk to you
Those feelings arise as they do

Jennifer Don (c)

I Am .......

I am that whispered voice within the air
The gentle breeze that blows through your hair
I am the shadow upon the wall
I am there when you're having a ball

I am that gentle breeze at night
I am the warm loving light
Follow the guidance of your heart
For there I am and I will not part

Loving you always for the love you gave
Judging you not for how you behave
Forgiving you always for what you have done
Loving you always for the hearts you have won

I am the stars up in the sky
I am there to lift you up high
I am the grass beneath your feet
Follow your heart and listen to the beat

I am within you and you within me
I am the power of all to be free
I am the light that shines for you
I will be there always in what you do

Loving you always for the love you gave
Judging you not for how you behave
Forgiving you always for what you have done
Loving you always for the hearts you have won

I am the strenght granted your way
I am the hope that makes your heart play
I am the love thats always around
I am there in every surround

I am the support and aid to control
I am there when you want to stroll
I am the wind upon the shore of thought
I will always leave you not

Loving you always for the love you gave
Judging you not for how you behave
Forgiving you always for what you have done
Loving you always for the hearts you have won

I am within you and all around
I am in each and every surround
I will be there always through what you do
For I will tell you .. I am You

Within the mind dreams really do come true
I am the light that shines forever within you
I am the surround and all you see
We are one so lets be free

Dragons Den

If your lumbered in room seven
With a Dragon in the den
Then your haven't gone to Heaven
So perhaps think again

But count youself so lucky
It's a room and not a cave
As Dragons can be touchy
So pray that she behaves

If your brave enough to chance your luck
Then some presents is a must
I only pray that one is not a duck
For it may then turn to dust

A fair few now have been on through
Soon I'll bid you well and run
And there I leave the Dragon's queue
For I have already had my turn

So fair you well my trusted freind
I wish you all the best
My prayers for you will never end
But I really do need some rest.

So if your lumbered in room seven
With a Dragon in the den
Remember it surely isnt Heaven
So its time to think again

For this dragon has good taste
Nothing really but the best
She really takes her time why haste
Savouring the moment with a rest

Jennifer Don (c)

Be Free

Through the burning embers
The light distends like fingers
Flickering and dancing through the light
Reaching off into the distance of the night

Warming the body with its glow
Flilling the vacant spaces as its flows
Reaching into the caverns of thought
Into the web of life so taught

Awakening a call of sacrifice inside
A Calling to release the control that may reside
To release is then to gain some more
You then see you gain control for ever more

Awakeniing the inner control over perception
Mans perception that runs through every section
Break the chains and take new ground
Tonight as fires burn its you you've found.

It burns away the old perceptions with delight
Burning away things of old, well into the night
The birth of self empowerment has now taken its hold
With you to stand always firm and bold

Jennifer Don (c)

Revelations

I question the mind of thyself
In thoughts thou seek the answers
Where eyes can not truly see
Into the depths of the soul I search
I delve so deep in search of answers

To find the things I seek
To feel the things I need
To trust in thy heart
To feel in thy soul
One must know one's self

Inside and out in all the parts
To understand every inch of this vessel
I must uncover every rock in sight
Into the beyond of the soul inside
I reveal the light of power indeed

Self empowerment, releasing the fears
Letting go of those useless things
To grant room to move on and up
I'll walk with the pride I have
With the strength I have found

With the lessons then taught
Through wonderful friends in life
I stand where others have fallen
I aid where others in need
I'll find strength inside from the rose alight

In the sun from morning untill night
Through passion of mind
And courage of heart
All things are possible
So don't fear the hidden parts.

Jennifer Don (c)

Perception

Aspects of perception of things in the night
Turned to angles unknown unless looked at in sight
Through deeper thought and introspection
Grant tender insight and bountiful vision
Space and thoughts rolled into one
And then left free to run.

Those angles did they turn to reflect that of mine
To cast new light did they then shine
Creating new line of thought trails of the mind
Where I am lost and directed to a path of some kind
Upon the opening of a channel to walk on through
Where at last Upon the path I feel change in direction too

A direction of growing aid and comfort
A single tear comes to life in a last resort
A reminder of things long gone by
A reminder that things can't change but we can soar high
To reveal the road continues on covered in light
That will remain long through the night.

An Angel In Our Eyes

An angel in our eyes
An angel in our hearts
Always around and loved so dear
Theres an angel shining in here

One of laughter one of fun
One who loves to get things done
An angel in our eyes tonight
Never a truer one who shines so bright

Like a rose full in bloom
One that played the sweetest tune
A melody of laughter full of delight
For we have you to thank tonight

To lift us up when we are down
To turn our frowns the right way round
To see us straight and aid our way
To share your fun when you do play

For your an angel in our eyes
An angel in the darkest skies
Always around to help us through
To guide us on when strength so few

One of love so tender and bright
A light that shines forever this night
You are loved and adored by many you see
For your an angel between you and me

In Loving Memory

This poem was written in the memory of my late nana who passed away to the world of spirit to be with her late husband again on the 20th of August 2009. It was written to be read out at her funeral in which my Dad read out. (((((Nana))))) Loving you always and missing you more may you now fly with grampa away from all pain and suffering as you are now free. Rest In Peace xxx

In Loving Memory


As words from thoughts flow through the caverns of the mind
They mix with strange feelings and emotions of every kind
As we remember your life with the memories in our hearts
We hold them with pride for they will never part

And as you walk through the vally wrapped in love
You are free of pain and suffering, and as graceful as the dove
And now to you a rose so sweet in tender loving red
Showered in droplets of morning dew and tears that we shed

Reunited with your one true love and friend
Eternally together forever with love that shall not end
May you now rest in peace in heavens abode
Where our candles will guide your road

Missing you always but we will never forget you
Your memory will live on for we all love you
You were to us our family and friend
And memories of you will never end

Through the Days

Through the shadow into light
The sun has chased away the night,
Morning comes but with warm delight
Setting your soul inside alight

Full of passion and desire
Growing more from that inner fire
The burning strength within the soul
Coming to help achive the goal

Through all walks of life and learning
We all share a common yearning
To trust in ourselves and offer out love
To share the peace within, much like the dove

No matter how far we may tread
We ask for faith and never for dread
No room for fear but it wont go
Not even after the river flow

As we march on through the days
We look to things in different ways
Looking for answers and seeking our truth
We often fail to see our inner truth

But still we shine as day turns to night
We recharge ourselves within the moonlight
Ready to carry on the very next day
Ready to follow our path on our way

Free Mind

There's a beating drum
Upon the path I turn
To guide my way
On this new day

There's a Butterfly
Flying in the sky
Darting to and frow
Showing we all grow

There's a bluebell over there
Showing peace is in the air
Fill your heart with glee
Let your spirit be free

There's an angel with me
She says to let things be
Happy days are here
There is nothing to fear

Jennifer Don (c)

Beautiful Day

There's a great big beautiful tomorrow
There's a great big beautiful today
No matter if the sun shines through your window
Or if its raining outside this day

For the magic or miracles remain
Tender life full of happiness and love
Everyone has everything to gain
Watch the sign of peace, such a beautiful dove.

For tomorrow's another day
Yesterday has gone so leave it rest
Let's follow the sun shine on our way
Keeping heads high doing our best

Positivity is the key
Love and laughter all around
There's enough for you and me
But let's keep our feet on the ground

So follow the flow,
I can see magic in your eyes
As your watching the shore
Theres a rainbow in the sky

Jennifer Don (c)

Guardian of thy door

The guardian of thy door thy safe keeper
Lay in rest and watched as i doth go nearer
Silent did thou keeper stay
Watching as I walked my way

Never moving ever restful in that watchful place
Knowing thy guardian of thy door's gentle face
The loving connection that doth surround
The joy in life one of many in man's playground

The guardian of thy door thy safe keeper
Watches over me all through day as night draws nearer
My humble shadow follows where ever I go
Even to the riverside watching the river flow

The guardian of thy door my safe keeper
Trusted friend and playful silent seer
Lives in comfort and knows thy place in land
Forever next to me and my patting hand

Jennifer Don(c)

Poem is actually written about my beautiful dog who was laid against the door tonight as she does most nights knowing where everyone is within the house before laying her head down to rest in comfort lol

Diamond in the Sky

Diamond in the Sky

Your the diamond in the sky
The brightest star from way up high
Your the rose within our hearts
Your friendship never parts

Your a growing inspiration
Full of fun and asperation
Your the leader of a gang
Geo Clooney is your man

Your a busy little bee
Full of fun and harmony
Sending emails by the tonn
Your friendship's always number 1

You like the rooms to move along
Just remember your never alone
Your a diamond in the sky
A shining star within our eye
