This year I am going to be doing some experimenting. I will be sharing the thoughts I write down upon the conclusion of my morning date time with God. I hope they are helpful and you find some that resonate with you. Peace, Colleen

Be of good cheer!
It’s that time of year.
And if what appears
makes no room for cheers
don’t fall for the fear
of never having a reason to cheer
simply hold hope for the new year

It’s kind of an end
but depending on what you believe
Time is only pretend
and based solely on what you perceive

Hold close to yourself
Dive deep into the well
Pay attention to the beat
of what makes your heart leap

Each breath is an end
Each breath begins it all again
Each beat sets a new course
Anyone can move past remorse

A new moment with new air
maybe even bringing flair
deeper than the aires
like those who pretend to care

Wanting and desiring
something deeper and less confining
It’s more than silly musing
It’s the muse stirring
waking us from our sleeping
inviting us to embarking

To a path worth discovering
not limited by defining
something all others are expecting
permission to step outside the protecting

No proof needed
from outside sources
only what is feeding
our soul’s courses

Are we listening
to our heart’s beating?

It’s a call to rhyming
with our heart’s timing

Now the beat’s banging
has begun

Regardless of the world’s timing
no reason to keep hiding,

Our souls are calling
wanna have some fun?

It is peculiar how much peace it brings
like the feeling of being on a swing
I don’t even have to be outside
Just seeing them through my window makes me sigh

The rhythm, the swoop, the formation, and the loops
The precision and timing, the way they all fall in line

It is a thing of beauty to behold
It is a thing of wonder that touches my soul

Maybe it just seems easier to be up there than down here
Down here amidst the chaos
Down here where there are obstacles at every turn
Down here where we are all wishing we could be up there

To dance in the sky and spread out wings far and wide
Down here when we dare spread our wings, we are criticized
Is it because we can’t see them or don’t know their size?
No room for that they say
Who do you think you are?
Oh sure, they are happy to have you form a line
but it’s not for a dance
it’s for a trance

I wish you could tell me your secret little bird
What makes you free to fly?
Are you as scared as me that you’ll fail?
What fuels your courage to try?
Is it because you can see your wings?
Is it because you are doing what you are told?
Or is it because of a longing in your soul?
A longing to fully express all that you are
A longing to show the wind just how strong you are

I look through my window and see you all share your design
A pattern of courage and living in the flow
A formation of beauty like you just know
You know that in this moment you are being the song of your soul

Tell me, little bird, can you teach me?
Me, the one who can’t see her wings
Can you teach me?
Teach me how to fly free?
