Dolores the Daffodil

“…just be mellow…”

Dolores,

such a patient Daffodil,

sat in waiting

deep upon a hill.

As Winter chills

slowly eased,

there she was, well….

quite mildly pleased

in knowing to

just be mellow

she’d soon burst into

bright sun yellow.

Waving bye-bye

to frostier days,

she would herald

coming warmer days.

Her lessons she gives

to one and to all

Is:

always get back up

after you fall;

Even on the coldest, darkest day

light will always in all ways

find a way

to reappear before our eyes

bringing us out of demise;

If, in the right circumstance,

we’ll find the right music and get up and dance;

To let us know

our love will grow;

despite the layers of manure,

we can always, always endure;

with patience

and a dose of love

we’ll always find

a reason to rise above.

The Proposal

“…heaven sees fit and the heart is true…”

Asking with open hands on bended knee if I’m worthy of this greatest love
Never settling for the many meandering lyrics of voices
Answering prayers on the radio
Waking up spirit with clarity
To the tune of a bell times three
Pleading proverbs entrapped by the counsel of men denying god and heaven scent messages
A Receiving flows over me like a warm blanket
trials and tribulations lifted accountability to the father belief trusts the path will clear from bramble
Returning to the fold of comfort and joy under light and a sign of despair if it’s made in demand the answer may be no.
If the will of heaven sees fit and the heart is true, may my prayers be answered become reality. Blessed be.
