Love not Hate
As Valentine's Day approaches, I was searching round for a poem to celebrate the day when I found this one I wrote in 2006. Sadly, it still seems relevant to the world today.
Love not Hate
Love not Hate
Sometimes
the news is hard enough to hear
Let
alone live through
We
have let hate win
If
we allow for one minute, these borders of fear
To
run among us
Dividing
our hearts, separating our minds
The
truth is this
The
dogmatic mindset that brings violence, distrust
Fear
and hate to every doorstep is no weapon at all
Against
love
The
sanctuary you crave is the human heart
And
it beats in every one of us
Violence
cannot win
Because
it cannot see
How
blind it is
To
the truth
The
walls of hate it builds
Only
serve to imprison it
The
human heart will always fly free
Is this it
Is
this it?
Is
this where we find some middle ground?
A
place to feed
Not
on prejudice and greed
But
to share, face to face
Our
wealth around
A
token, a portion, a weight
How
much for love, hope and faith?
It's
a small heart indeed
Who
turns from the need
To
sit down and sort out this place
Is
this where we find
A
place to hear
Not
to argue or bicker or lie
But
to talk and find out why
Far
too many of us live in fear
Is
this where we find some middle ground?
A
place to lay the foundations down
For
a humankind who are no longer
Full
of hate, anger and hunger
Is
this the place?
Are
we welcome here?
Will
we leave behind our superstitious fear
And
open our hearts to find a way to sit down
And
settle on some middle ground
Is
this it?
Ripplestone ~ meditations
Imagine a calm pool, throw a small stone into the pool, watch the ripples spread out, feel your stress slip away with them.
~
All stones sing their songs
Ripples in memory pools
Your heart hears it now
~
Stop for a second
And hear the poem of your heart
Singing here and now

The Call
The breeze lifts on the lake
And the leaves do not hesitate
To echo the call
Trembling breath
I am on the mountain
And the flags are praying
And the breeze is saying
Find this love
Open your heart
And I lift my life to the sky
And catch the light of the world in my eyes
The key is always in me
With all my love
With all my love
If you have forgotten, I will find
If you are uncertain, I will reassure
If you are sad, I will comfort
With all my love
With all my love
The breeze lifts on the lake
And the leaves do not hesitate
To echo the call
Trembling breath
And the leaves do not hesitate
To echo the call
Trembling breath
I am on the mountain
And the flags are praying
And the breeze is saying
Find this love
Open your heart
And I lift my life to the sky
And catch the light of the world in my eyes
The key is always in me
With all my love
With all my love
If you have forgotten, I will find
If you are uncertain, I will reassure
If you are sad, I will comfort
With all my love
With all my love
And the leaves do not hesitate
To echo the call
Trembling breath
