Deeply Me

I'm dancing
with destiny..

grateful
empowered;
light
and free..

all that I am..

deeply
me.

Messages

Restless clouds
with destinations..

thunderous
in movement
and transformation..

messengers
with a message..

strangers
yet friends..

light returns
darkness ends.

Deeper

Deep
within
my being..

deeper
than any sorrow
or blind
non-seeing..

I find..

the resilience
of love..

the innocence
of love.

Affinity

Like 
breaking waves..

aching
for time's
release..

we reach for
affinity's
shore

restored 

by
peace.

Poem & Painting by Mairi

Strength

We have the strength
to hold
our own

within the known
through
the unknown..

as we endure 
and grow
together;
alone..

we have the strength..

divine mystery
our soul's
defence.

Poem & Painting by Mairi

Bird in Flight

Circling
around..

all the beginnings
and endings 
with tattered wings;
feeling lost
yet found..

surviving
and arriving

here
alone..

now a bird 
in flight
again..

going home.

Books of Short Poems

I published 2 Books of my Short Poems a while ago. Many of the poems appear on my website, but if like me you prefer to have a book of poems to hold; to randomly open and await a message from the Universe; you will find the links here.

Many thanks to all who visit. 💙💙

Moving On

Places
and faces
have gone..

tears shed
have left no trace;

no sign..

time
bled
away..

it led us
onwards

moving on

Life’s Call

I'm done
fighting life

with double-edged
swords
and angry 
words..

resisting;
and persisting
in loops
and circles..

I let go of it all..

I surrender
until

I hear
life's call.

Poem & Painting by Mairi

Meandering

Energies and signs;
synergy
and time..

bind
yesterday
tomorrow
and today..

meandering

like a river
passing
through..

we find
our
way.

Drifting

Birdsong
and morning dew
may find me
here

tearful..

long gone
moments
will lose their pace
drifting
drifting
away..

without
a trace.

Why

I don't know
why..
birds migrate 

and rivers run
dry..

why fate unfolds
like a story
told..

of rising high; 

falling low 
rising high.. 

I don't know why.

Poem & Painting by Mairi

Perfect Moment

A seed
awaits
the perfect
moment

to emerge..

anticipating
nothing

knowing nothing

not even
that it's waiting.
