A silenced Spirit,
An ancient mystic’s writings;
A warmth stirs within.

Chapel Visit
Light through windows tall and wide
Ignites the surfaces inside.
Wood and brass and fibers gleam
As I am lost in mystic dreams.
Echoes from the creaks and cracks,
I sit a few rows from the back.
My eyes are closed so I can see
What’s offered by Divinity.
Words are neatly tucked away,
And thought’s suspended as I pray.
The One who is cannot be known
Except by still, sweet Love, alone.
Thanks for Reading! Be Blessed!
Cup of Tea
A simple day, a cup of tea,
Heaven for a soul like me.
However twisted life may be,
My Center keeps me feeling free.
When my world grinds on noisily,
I turn within, still Light to see;
A momentary place to flee
And find sacred Serenity.
Thanks for Reading! Be Blessed!
Value, Too
Let the air caress your skin,
And let the Silence enter in.
Take a moment to receive,
For in such moments you’ll perceive
That you and every thing are one,
All that moves under the sun.
Know the value within you,
And know that all have value, too.

Quiet Soul
The quiet Soul, so still and sound,
Is where the Light of Truth is found.
Our worldly struggles set aside
So we can center and abide.
Life is wasted absent rest;
Exhausted, we can’t give our best.
Let us take the time to be,
And live more intentionally.

Stillness Sweet
Time to think in Stillness sweet,
A daily treat that can’t be beat.
I drink up the Sacred Hush,
A respite from the normal rush,
Listening for that small Voice
I wish to guide my every choice.

Then Repeat
Take some time to rest,
To nurse creative power.
Nourish your internal life
And blossom like a flower.
Drench your inner earth
With quiet waters sweet.
Let the stillness soothe your soul,
Create and then repeat.

What’s Within
What’s within teaches
If we would sit still, listen,
and act in response.

A Quaker Thought
Sacred things need not be named.
That which is “Other” won’t be tamed.
For all our words and practiced forms,
To none of it will G-D conform.
What’s best and all too challenging,
To sit and see what Spirit brings,
I think is what we all might need
To grow and from our pains be freed.
