The poem is fine. It is an excellent way of expressing your relationship and communion with God. It is also experiencig divinity in day to day life. Fine.

Heaven Happened Here.

The keys have been exchanged.
The bits and pieces of our life,
our history
and our junk,
all are thrown into a box and
loaded in the trunk.

Now spent, exhausted,
heads downcast
we stumble from
our splintered past,
memories pave our sad retreat
from shattered promises and broken dreams

Not ours the picture perfect postcards
and sepia tinted kodachromes.
No! Ghosts of love and laughter
now walk the ruins,
the rubble that was once our home,
of our Pompeii and Rome!

So nothing left for us to say… Continue

Surrender

So did you think
of me love,
was I in your dreams
tonight,
did you smile
sweet recognition
as I lay gently
by your side?

Did you float
into my arms love,
lost
in sweet embrace,
did you sigh
exquisite rapture,
passion's dew
upon your face?

Then love
did you surrender
to your hunger
and to mine,
and in your dreams
tonight love,
did our hearts and souls
entwine?

Island

laughing,
you stand apart,
at a distance,
daring me
to draw my weapon,
to use my heart!!

an island, built
of your own design,
(a world away
from this world of mine)
to guard your trust
in a thorny shrine.

your heart a fortress
few dare to scale,
manys the heart
on it's rocks impaled!
yet still I come,
naive, enthused, while

you prepare for battle!
but I cannot choose
what part not to love;
for the paladin heart,
the lamb and the wolf,
are all I see in you!

And I Smile

Sometimes,
amidst the hustle and bustle
of daily life
and the million things
that need my attention -
"Right Now!" -
a thought of you
breaks through
like a warm ray
of sunbeams.
And I smile.

A laugh,
a touch,
something funny -
or sweet -
that you said, or
the tilt of your head,
pushes the noise
and demands
of the moment
into the distance.
And I smile.

And for a moment
you're here with me
sipping a coffee
holding hands
making plans
laughing together
sharing secrets
and memories...
Then my phone… Continue

Roots and Wings

I whispered your name to my Angels
and asked, that they keep you in their care
because I truly cherish you,
for you are a treasure, rare.

I knew they'd guard you gently
and wrap you in their wings.
And as you walk through your world,
that they'd keep you safe for me.

When nights are dark and cold
and you feel all alone,
I asked that they guide you to my heart
and light your way back home.

And "Until then", I asked them,
"please help me with the waiting",
till you come back to find the one
who… Continue

Greetings Roberta, hope you are well, I am from Palm Desert, CA not too far from you! I do a little writing on EzineArticles.com to promote my eBooks, so that might be an avenue to pursue or check out? Who knows?
