For all...

[MsMollimizz]

May the Goddess Bless You

As the Sun rises, so may your spirit
Let the warmth enrich your soul
Let no shadow, cloud your mind
Making all, again feel whole

When Sister Moon shows her face
Sending Her gentle light, our way
May it surround you, in grace
Worries and doubts, washed away

This is what I pray, for you today
As the new day, brings sadness
Gentle calming energies, we pray
That your hearts be caressed

Empty Spaces

There are empty
spaces in our
conversations.
You know the ones
I mean. Ones with
no expression.
Words should go
here, and here.
Where do they go ?
Why ?
They were there,
on the tip of my
tongue. Then they
said, “Good-bye”.
Left me feeling like
I missed something.
Quick! Call them
back before you
loose your nerve.
Too late…I should
have said, or I could
have said; just to
keep them on the
phone. In hopes,
one day that
empty space fills.

Dreams

Upon this shelf I sit, waiting for her.
Her smile brings life to me.
Hugs and kisses remind me that I’m loved,
Her touch gentle, like a summer breeze.

I wait for her return, she is my friend.
Upon this shelf, I sit, waiting for her.
The others pay me no mind,
They are old and worn with time.

When she comes, she comes for me.
Cuddles me, cradles me, tells me I’m her’s.
“You’re so sweet!” she tells me.
“I wish you could be with me all day!”

Upon this shelf I sit; waiting for her.
She returns, to come get me, play house.
Another day, another adventure,
Another day in our make-believe world.
