Voyage
Mist, like a veil
Sprays over the bow
As the ship surges forward
Into the sea it ploughs
The Sailors seek guidance
In the darkness of the night
As the Moon hangs in the sky
A great ball of light
Guiding their ship
Past any danger that lurks
On this important voyage
Through Nature’s network
The crests of the waves
Sparkle and shimmer
Against the canvas of the ocean
That barely raises a glimmer
Onward they travel
Toward their destination
Full of confidence
With great anticipation!

Create!
Create a world
That is your own
A place with feeling
Where one can go
In one’s mind
In one’s Heart
A place to escape to
A place to create Art
That place exists
Within your mind
It is a place
Where you can unwind
Unwind enough
For you to create
That statement that
You want to make
Create and be free
In all that you do
Create that Art
That makes you, you!

Eye Of The Storm
The ship approaches
The eye of the storm
Captain spins the wheel
Sharply to port
The wind is howling
Ripping over the ship
As the Captain and crew
Try to give the storm the slip
Waves are getting higher
The sea salt so strong
As the ship continues to
Disappear into the throng
Belted and buffeted
The ship sails on
Prizing itself
From the battle, just won
The waters are calm now
Minds are at rest
As the ship won the battle
Of Mother Nature’s fine test!

Raise The Bar
Review your goals
Raise the bar
Look to the future
You’ll see from afar
Roll up those sleeves
Dig right in
Look at that dream
And start to begin
In no time at all
You’ll be on the road
Moving forward
Instead of being towed
That mental check-up
You gave to yourself
Was the key
To your self-help
Reward yourself
Along the way
The journey of growth
Is your payday!

The Library
Inspired Thoughts
Inspired thoughts
They come and go
An intermittent creek
That sometimes flows
Getting into the zone
Can be the key
It is then your mind
Is most certainly free
Free to discover
New thoughts that inspire
Goals to make
Dreams that fire!

Stories…
They ring in the air
With the passing breeze
Stories are told
With consumate ease
Casting the mind back
To days before
Memories fast
Come to the fore
They gently persuade
And settle your mood
Bringing you back
To the present
Leaving your mind
Effervescent!
