Finding Peace

In silence I sit here
Savoring the nothing that I hear.
Thoughts cease racing,
My mind becoming clear.
Worries are but a breath,
Exhaled become nothing.

Sinking gently deeper
I melt into the calm.
Namaste explains this place,
It is of love,
It's where we're
One.

A Letter To The Other Side

Dear Mother with love,

I think about you everyday and miss you all the time.

How's life on the other side?

Is it beautiful like they say,

in a mystical kind of way?

You're always so happy 

in our dreams.

I've been told that 

you're always with me.

I can't see,

but I believe.

Life isn't the same without you,

so much has changed.

When it rains, it pours

but...

When the sun chases away the clouds;

that rainbow that follows

reminds me

to keep looking on the bright side.

Tonight I'll light a fire

and hand this letter

to the flame.

As the smoke rises

and fades away,

I know in my heart

that this letter will find you.
