Featured Poet | Charles Owen Baldwin
My friend Charles sent me this little diddy after reading my New Year’s post:
Merci beaucoup,
It can only be you,
my hearts desire
to be on fire
with the Love
from the Dove
Spirit Divine
in the Mind
of God’s Beloved
Always recovered
in the Now
we allow
with the gust
of Spirit a must
giving the part
to God in my HEART
Then, after I [...]

SWEET, TENDER AND LOVING
The truth is no matter
what tragedies or traumas
that happened in our past
there is a deep inner core of our being
that is sweet, tender and [...]
The Forest
The Forest
The sun, it shines, with bright light
The sky, it glistens with radiant blue
But why is the forest so dark and dreary?
the tall towering trees seem to shut out life itself-
What is this darkness but sorrow?
Pity it is, for the forest makes all of the sorrow
Pity drags through the forest
and fails to see the light.
What [...]
Life Celebration | Aunt Karen
Life Celebration | Aunt Karen
On a visit to my Uncle Rick and Aunt Karen’s, we have found ourselves attending memorial services…
Though to a Doctor of English
these rhymes may be drivel
Karen has always inspired me
and spared me literary snivel
When I blasted an e-mail
about living in a red state
Karen’s was the first response
because she could commiserate
I looked [...]
Conflict | Peace
Conflict | Peace
My favorite prayer is “Help”
I often ask more specifically
with “Help me to see this differently”
and then I am reminded
about where I was amiss
Surely instead of conflict
I can see Peace instead of this…
For the one who likes to argue…
Do not cloud our light
with your need to be right
just an ego retreat
For there is no [...]
Custom Poetry | Why Write?
Custom Poetry | Why Write?
Years ago, when I began my custom poetry business, someone asked me why I write poetry. So, to get the answer, I wrote this poem.
I never really asked the question
it’s something I just do
not understanding it myself
I’m hoping this gives me an answer too
Well, there are some reasons;
to gain a greater [...]
New Year | New US
New Year | New US
We hoped for change
and now it is here
a new administration
to begin this new year
will our energies shift
to love from fear?
Will the belief in suffering
come to an end?
will we stop naming enemies
and call others friend?
Most of us voted for it
the change we desire
we elected a leader
someone we can admire
but can we count [...]

Featured Poet | Kim Kuerbis
I just learned that my friend Kim writes poetry, and she agreed to share this poem about her cats…
They were my companions who died and I felt their sudden flight
One night my friend and I took a stroll
right up the street we call skid row
up the road I saw an angelic [...]
Marvelous Makeover | Minimalist Look
Marvelous Makeover | Minimalist Look
Today I had the opportunity to have a Mary Kay Makeover, compliments of my friend Joanne Sauter. I tend to resist anything that may require more effort on my part (just wearing make-up), but the process was so fun and simple that I purchased my own “starter” kit. The basics were [...]
