There is only Love

Give me a life full of light
and sunshine and smiles,
give me strength to walk
a long-winding mile.
Bring heart to my heart,
and freedom to see
dancing light around me.

It’s here, it’s here,
it always is,
pink, just pink
and gloriously clear.
Oh let me look up
in times when I’m down,
help me to smile
when I feel that I frown.
Oh start my life
from this day on,
and help me be
courageous and strong.”

Oh joy! Oh joy!
Oh beautiful song,
we’re here to love,
and know we belong.
So let’s lift ourselves
into bright sky,
and call in our helpers
to carry us higher.
Higher than all the years
we have lived,
Higher and higher
on pink wings, we forgive.

Sunbird has no memory,
it glides ever high,
it carries us over
old valleys to sky.
So bring in the crayons
and light up your life,
carry us higher
to the lightest light.
And if we ever
look down all our day,
remember, remind us
to play and say...
It’s love to uplift,
and joy is a song,
and whistle a melody
to carry along.
Put all of the darkness
that wells in your life,
to burn in a flame,
and ignite your new Self,
and climb to the light
on the ladder of love,
pink light is uplifting
above, above....

Remember the Oneness
and blessings from Heaven.
Remember your soul
is learning each life,
and soul families will challenge,
or share your strife.
The essence is Love
so the world goes around,
and flowers will spring
on every mound.
It’s daisies for simple,
and lavender true,
and roses of fragrance,
and pansies bring through
their thoughts for those in times untold,
the colour of yellow,
the colour of gold,
and loving hugs do gently unfold.

But hear us say
from worlds above,
There is only love,
only Love.

I wrote this on New Years Day 2007, and posted a much longer version on my “Gnomes Waving Gleefully” blog. In those days my nickname was Nomi……

Anyone can still read that blog, which began in 2005, when I first started writing these verses.  So much of the content was inspired by plants, nature, healing my grief and pink love.

I was reading some of gwg blog today, and am grateful I now post similar verses on my Fully Faithfully blog.

The scent of flowers, the song of birds

Well here I am

here with you

and most certainly

indeed, it’s true

you are here

to communicate

to share your verses

openly

and never wonder

where they go

in the wide world

once you let them flow.

And yes some folk

connect

with gratitude

and others ignore

the gift you share

but that will always

be the way

just share with all

and trust the words

will be felt

by those who heard

the purity of love

that is here for all

asking is the way

today, and there will be

answers clearly

coming in

with the scent of flowers

and song of birds

gifts to all

are in the breeze,

the call of nature

from the trees

and the soil

the veins of leaves

the dew of fruit

goodness me

don’t you see

simple sights

are truly gems

absorb,

delight

and live your life

happily in every way

thankfully, yes

the best is here everyday.

I wonder what if?

You know you are not alone

although you think your Mum has gone……

you see she is ever near

and if you sat down in a chair

with her handbag resting on your knee

you would feel her presence

presently....

Our loved ones never do depart

as all the time

they are in our hearts
and what I feel

today for you

is love surrounds

it's all around
and when you are alone and quiet

take some time to sit with you

and you will know

your Mum's there too....

What if in her handbag
there was a little something dear
that you could carry very near

your heart would sing
as this would bring

you closer to the love you miss

and release the seal

on the old past times
and bring her with you
to explore new worlds

time will tell

it always does,

so let your heart smile today
and dear soul as you believe

you will feel her presence

near your sleeve...

All the love that ever was

goes with you

because, because....

The Sky Garden

Tree dahlia petals float on down,

a soft pink carpet

on the ground…..

From high in sky

Dahlia sees it all,

through autumn time

she’s growing tall

and now this winter what I see,

is a tree with amazing blooms,

clearly visible from my room…..

a flowering plant oh so high

with pink love shining to the sky!!

Inspiration

Inspiration

with harmony and melody

opens your heart

and sets you free.

Breathe for your soul

to help you feel whole

and all the while,

and all along,

live your life singing

your own sweet song.

Shine your light,

dance your moves

all will come

and flowers will bloom.

Waltz along

humming your song,

pray with your heart

your soul to keep

and rest well at night

dreaming your sleep.

Wake every day

with joy in your cells

so leave time for play

and nurturing true

to bring peace to your day

and inspiration to you.

Set Yourself Free From Chronic Pain

Stop all the dairy

and the cups of tea,

stop all the dairy

and you will see

the only step left to do

was release the milk

to benefit you……

We know you have

done your best

but you kept a2

for several months

and even this

must not be daily,

give it up,

you’ll be hale and hearty.

And watch the weight fall-away

as you have freedom everyday

the muscular-skeletal system knows

you will be better

when all dairy goes…..

So give it time

you have been chronic,

but in the spring

your body sings

it’s light and bright

and so drug-free

you’ll spread this word

faithfully……

 (Written on arising from sleep on April 26, 2013 Call this Part One)

When I awake at night

and my body’s on fire

my blood’s so hot

like a stack of tyres

flaming high,

into sky

and I know again

the wild horses are racing

and the metabolic allergy

is what I’m facing.

Some food chemical is now

on the loose again

and which one when?

for how long then?

with nostrils blistering,
sore throat is raging

and my joints so inflamed,

my eyes so dry

with burning pain

and I am watching it

all over again…..

But keep the faith.

I wonder if,

instead of disability

the pain will go

and set me free,

if I decide

to let much go

and believe my health

will return and show

that what I need

is ‘less not more’

open up

and just explore

the possibility,

that for all my years

I have been eating

nourishing foods

that defeated me

with auto-immunity.

The dairy foods

and the grains

are enraging these fires

these chronic pains……

And so, it is

last very night

another message came to me,

another way to set me free.

These proteins are not good for me

the gluten in grains,

the casein in milk,

are present in all my favourite foods,

so it has taken me many long, long, years

to finally eliminate everything

and wait with faith

as new freedom brings

all I ever wanted to be

relaxed, flexible

and truly set free…..

(Call this Part Two - The words in this verse woke me up in the middle of last night, with the full moon shining down to me for a very aha moment...April 28, 2013)

As an ‘almost vegetarian’ nutritionist, I have always loved milk, cheese, bio-dynamic very natural yoghurt and organic rye bread to compliment my healthy diet, and I have found that eliminating my favourite dairy food has taken me years…For me withdrawing from all gluten (wheat, rye, barley and oats) was easier in some ways.

But truly it is the best thing I ever did for myself.

Why did I ever think I just couldn’t let these foods go from my daily life??
