TALK TO THE OCEAN

I talk to the ocean,
and listen to its sounds.
It soothes the weary nerves,
Calms the tensions of stress.
I talk to the ocean,
Awaiting its reply,
For the thoughts of flow.
I talk to the ocean,
When I need encouragement.
From its mighty rage,
I gain inner strength.
I talk to the ocean,
To help my confusion.
With its constant churning,
I can gain understanding.
I talk to the ocean,
It talks back,
Tells me what I need to know,
All will be alright.

DREAMS

As we sleep, peace can come to us.
Our thoughts of desire and accomplishment,
Feeds our unconscious mind of fantasies.
Closing our eyes on reality to see our senses.
From where we are to where we are going,
The present nourishes our needs for tomorrow.
Pleasant dreams, in a mind full of knowledge,
Dreaming of hopes to fill our devotion to peace.
Colors of the rainbow, life of a flower,
Beautifying the world around us.
Dreams have a purpose to atune our being,
Or give each memory a lasting shape.
Resting well in our souls of deep content,
We provide the world a look into ourselves.
All dreams have meaning, look for the positive,
Its there under a camouflage of horror and fright.
Look deeper than the surface shows,
Our dreams are a mirror of existence.
Giving no conditions to our subconscious,
Dreams will flow, from the heart and soul.
