Keep the gleam in your eye
Keep the vigor in your stroke
or in your stride …
May the last force of it's ember,
... Keep you alive!

May the fire inside …
Keep the gleam in your eye Keep the vigor in your stroke or in your stride … May the last force of it's ember, ... Keep you alive! © jan leree 2012

The water tower,
looms and sings … As the lace of spring Delicate with intrigue, Magnificently clings… © jan leree 2012 In the wilderness…
Of the wild, And the flower … We are invited, To enjoy the delicacies … ... Of elaborate detail! © jan leree 2012 The gold and red lamp
Of my soul burns… I was reclaimed for glory, From yesterday’s recycled, Disabled turns. © jan leree 2012 The wasting of the skin…
The wasting, a life, dim within… The wasting of time, Slips easily over the rim… ... The wasting of my life, Never again. © jan leree 2012 Home,
Is where everything can come to rest … And it is all ok. Home, Is where we bring our best, But even if we fail … Stumble or travail Home’s Love will prevail. Home is where my heart is … May home harmonize, With where all my values lie. © jan leree 2012 Take time to be.
Take time to be quiet. Take time to be silent. Take time to be whole... Take time to be coal. Take time to be on fire. Take time to be desired. Take time to be alive. Take time to be designed. Take time to be aligned. Take time to say, I love you. Take time to show, I love you. Take time to know, love to you. © jan leree 2012 May my words be tendered
By memory of my own imperfections… May my words be rendered, Only after solid reflection. © jan leree 2012 Let me be
Let me be joyful Let me be thankful Let me be heart filled Let me be genuinely tilled ... Let me be wholely thrilled Let me be branded by Your Will Holy, sanctuaried and still Let my heart be spilled Let my heart be real Let my heart be here, until. © jan leree 2012 |
