<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are born of love, love is our mother</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
~ Rumi</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The wealth of love is eternal</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No force can away it snatch</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
An emotion so primal</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
None other can it match</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Available in abundance</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yet so hard for us to find</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Forgotten its existence</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lost in vestiges of mankind</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The human race must transform</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All acts with kndness must it do</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seems harder than the fiercest storm</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Is to let the love shine through</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do we even comprehend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What love truly means</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a divine gift He blessed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With no expectation no fees</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its value so priceless</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No gem can hold its light</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yet for it we are careless</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And against it often fight</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Crossed over then we see its worth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For love is only bliss</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Such a wasted time this birth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Love was all that is</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The wealth of love is eternal</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No force can away it snatch</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
An emotion so primal</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
None other can it match</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This poem is written from the viewpoint of the Goddess who has received an offering from a young child, a flower placed at the feet of Her idol in the temple. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A flower was offered to me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With folded hands she stood there</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A little child but barely three</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Eyes shut in sincere prayer</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She spoke such simple words</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her heart so full of faith</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The plea in love I heard</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To change someone's fate</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Though destiny has a different path</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How could I break her soul</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Compassion filled my heavy heart</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While the young one did extol</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What is inevitably written </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even Goddess cannot change</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But perhaps grant a short reprieve </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Within Divinity's allowed range</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I took the flower in my hands</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And blessings did bestow</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I broke those firm destiny bands</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And altered that life's flow.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
~x~</div>
<br />
<br />
I believe that what is destined is inevitable, but I also hope that God and Goddess can grant us a reprieve, a slight change in our path if we ask with sincerity, with no agenda, with love and faith and with the innocence of a child.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I searched for joy in places near and far</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I left no stone unturned</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But joy it ran like a speeding car</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And all my efforts spurned</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought I'd find it in my things</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In exciting adventures</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In all the things that shine and bling</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In fortune fame and treasure</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perhaps I'd trap it in a Winter drift </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or in February, May or September</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Maybe it will be a gift</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I get in a day in October</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The more I tried, the more I failed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For joy could not be caught</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I shouted loud and cajoled and hailed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seemed like with me it fought</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One day I left that battle field</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And blended in with nature</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With no expectation of any yield</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or fear of any failure</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And then I sensed it all around</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Joy always exists</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's not a thing that can be found</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Within you it just is.</div>

Last Sunday my school classmate passed away suddenly. He was much loved and will be missed by all his classmates.<br />
<br />
I wrote a poem for him and for my classmates who are shocked and saddened by his tragic death. Sharing here with all of you.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
When the Great Spirit in the sky</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Called me back to my heavenly home</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found my wings to soar and fly</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And through the cosmos roam</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The melody that enticed my soul</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And coaxed me leave my wondrous Earth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Led me to Him and made me whole</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And showed me all my worth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I journeyed through life upon the sea</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I laughed and sang and danced</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But know that now I'm home and free</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Life was just a moment that I glanced</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My friends and loves I left behind</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Someday again we'll meet</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For in that great heaven you will find</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A classroom with our seats.</div>
<br />
R.I.P dear friend xoxo<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
For a few hushed moments. I sat in solitude</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Watching majestic mountains, Giving gratitude</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The silence so refreshing, Quietening the mind</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My soul nourishing, Answers I could find</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
In meditative Zenning, Perhaps a connection I did make<br />
A spark of self healing, In a Divinely loving state<br />
<br />
I liked that quiet moment, When serenity prevailed<br />
Tranquility so potent, Renewal it entailed<br />
<br />
But did it really happen, Did I reach that heavenly state<br />
Was it something I imagined, Regardless I celebrate<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Dwellings made of fluffy clouds</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or shimmering cities in the sea</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perhaps flowers glowing in meadows</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With prancing Unicorns</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A crystal lake with rainbow lights</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And golden baby fawns</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If I could dance with Angels</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We'd be flying in the skies</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Through cities made of pretty gems</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Through stars like twinkling eyes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We'd leave a trail of neon lights</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And sparkling diamond bands</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And swirls of jewelled moonbeams</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Through mystical cosmic lands</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perhaps I walk with Angels</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Each and every day</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perhaps they also dance with me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And speak and sing and play </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When life takes me through the woods</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With falling leaves that startle</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With Angel swish trees change to lollipops</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And luck comes through a feng shui turtle</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wonder what they look like</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perhaps like you and me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or the face I saw upon a board</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or like the sweet child running free</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know I walk with Angels</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And dance and sing and play</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And when I hear the swish of wings</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know they are here to stay.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the midst of all confusion</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
An answer suddenly appears</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Destroying all illusion</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Removing every fear</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perhaps it's not what you expected</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Opposite to your thoughts</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Something you rejected</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or secretly longed for</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Embrace the presented moment</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The event is meant to be</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perhaps time for some atonement</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or just to rest and see</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fire up the passion</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For what you truly want to do</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Take the time for self compassion</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Make your wildest dreams come true</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
Poem inspired by recent events in my life.<br />
<br />
September was an up and down month. I finished up at work 30 Sept as my contract came to an end. Initially I was on the lookout for a new contract and was getting anxious about not finding a job quickly until I got hit with the flu with a vengeance that completely drained me - no energy, no appetite, no strength.<br />
<br />
And on the last day at work I just made a split second decision that I was going to take a few months off and simply enjoy life. It's been a hard year and I've done some long hours at work. Not complaining as I've enjoyed every moment of it. But I do need the rest and time for myself to do the things I want to do and to stop and smell the roses and to enjoy the camellias in my garden and to ignite that fire within me to write and rhyme and photograph and dream.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
The pursuit of happiness is futile</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For happiness lies within</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To endeavour to find it is infantile</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For it's not contained in a tin</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Another cannot provide happiness</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For it is a state of being</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a choice to shed that sadness</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
By new perspective seeing </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To live in perpetual happiness</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seems an impossible thing</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But to live in perpetual sadness</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Makes life unnecessarily burdening</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The pursuit of happiness is futile</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For happiness lies within</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And sadness follows you mile after mile</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Until to happiness you give in.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She closed her eyes in eternal sleep</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her dreams fading into nothing</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In life she was her parent's goddess</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kind and compassionate and loving</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her tired body could hold no more</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her soul traumatised and fading</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And as she crossed into the light</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Goddess of love stood waiting</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Into her arms went the tormented soul</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Eyes filled with love She caressed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For the good of all she had sacrificed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her time had come to be blessed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her wretched rapists unfeeling and brutal</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Think that in their hands lie power</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But when they meet that mighty Goddess</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In Her eyes will they see anger and fire.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Goddess metes out to every soul</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Karmic lessons due</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Swift to love and swift to bless</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And swift to punish too</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The eyes of the Goddess watch us all</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Can you feel her stare?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fiery and rage filled if you stray</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or tender with love and care.</div>

In Ayodhya did Lord Ram take birth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the era of <i>Treta Yug</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And Sita <i>Dharti Mata's (Mother Earth)</i> girl</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Born as his love so true.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
His purpose to come upon this Earth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Vinash</i> <i>(Destruction) </i>of evil that was spreading</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To also show our <i>atma's (soul) </i>true worth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And soul's liberating.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Dharma</i> <i>(Righteousness) </i>was His life's principle</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Maryada Purushottam (Lord Ram the Greatest of men)</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A warrior gentle but invincible </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sweet Sita his <i>prema</i> <i>(love) </i>devotion.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How blessed were they in <i>Treta Yug</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With Him to be face to face</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perhaps they'd done some great <i>punya (merits)</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To earn his love and grace.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Lord has promised in every <i>yug (age)</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To walk upon the Earth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And so in this troubled age of <i>Kali Yug</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We await that <i>Divya</i> <i>(Divine) </i>birth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<i>Lord Ram</i> = 7th avatar of Bhagwan (God) Vishnu<br />
<br />
<i>Sita </i>= avatar of Goddess Laxmi, Lord Vishnu's consort<br />
<br />
<i>Yug</i> = an era within a four age cycle called a kalpa, A kalpa is the period of time between the creation and recreation of a world or universe (from Wikipedia)<br />
<br />
<i>Treta Yug</i> = the 2nd cycle within a kalpa<br />
<br />
<i>Kali Yug</i> = the 4th age within a kalpa and the current age we are in. Kali Yug is supposed to be the age of destruction after which the golden age (Satya Yug) will begin again.<br />
<br />
<i>Dharma </i>= is a difficult concept to explain as it encompasses many things - right action, right thought, right speech, right conduct, right way of living, virtues, respect, duty, good character, upholding law and order, religious / spiritual merit among other things.<br />
<br />
<i>Maryada Purushottam</i> = Maryada = limits, Purushottam - greatest of all men. Lord Ram although Divine and the avatar of Lord Vishnu always acted within human limitations and did not use his Divine powers. He was a loving son, brother, husband, father, king, friend and an upholder of dharma. He was a great and fearless warrior and annihilated evil from the Earth. Hence he was called Maryada Purshottam the greatest of all men who lived upholding human limitations.<br />
<br />
<i>Punya</i> = that which accumulates as a result of good deeds, acts, or thoughts and which carries over throughout the life or the subsequent incarnations (from Wikipedia)<br />
<br />
<i>God's promise:</i><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya Glanir Bhavati Bharatha</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Abhyuthanam Adharmasya Tadathmanam Srijamyaham.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Parithranaya Sadhunam Vinashayacha Dushkritham</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Dharma Samsthapanarthaya Sambhavami Yuge Yuge </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Whenever there is a fall in righteousness and a rise of unrighteousness, </i><br />
<i>I manifest</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>For the protection of the good, for the annihilation of evil and </i><br />
<i>to re-establish righteousness, </i><i>I appear millennium after millennium.</i></div>

<i>What would I say to Sita if I were Lord Rama?</i><br />
<br />
Oh Sita, behold the resplendent full moon that hides when you walk by<br />
For it cannot match your effulgent light that is a beacon in space<br />
<br />
Oh Sita, the flowers of the forest long to be fragrant like you<br />
For you are the sweet scent of purity and joy<br />
<br />
Oh Sita, the birds of the world listen intently when you speak<br />
For your words are the melodious sound of the Universe<br />
<br />
Oh Sita, without you this Rama is like a boat lost at sea<br />
For you are balm that soothes the turbulent waters of my mind<br />
<br />
Oh Sita, without you this Rama is bereft of life itself<br />
For you are the essence of my soul and the breath of my cosmos<br />
<br />
<br />
<i>What would I say to Lord Rama if I were Sita?</i><br />
<br />
Oh Rama, the glorious sun is dark like the night<br />
For it cannot match the brilliance of your iridescence<br />
<br />
Oh Rama, even the mighty thunderous waterfall cannot match your strength<br />
For it is your gentleness that conquers the most formidable foe<br />
<br />
Oh Rama, the animals of the forest are mesmerised by your gracefulness<br />
And the lion bows at your feet not from fear but reverence<br />
<br />
Oh Rama, without you this Sita has no existence<br />
For you are the life force within me<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
Oh Rama, this Sita thanks the Lord of all Universes<br />
For each moment in time, for the honour of your love, for the bliss that is you.<br />

My 50th poem!<br />
<br />
I wrote a poem for a guest post I did for <a href="http://batteredhope.blogspot.ca/2015/01/the-choices-you-make.html">Carol Graham's blog Battered Hope</a> early this month. Thought I would share it here as well.<br />
<br />
I wrote this poem on the bus on the way to work. Observing people on the bus and outside on the streets was the inspiration for this poem. <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
We reach our destinations</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In our own time and way</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many stops at many stations</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sometimes we go, sometimes we stay</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many points of destiny</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some choices we can make</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't give it too much scrutiny</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There's always give and take</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All things in life must balance</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No constant joy or sorrow</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most things are not a game of chance</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In His plan we trust and follow.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
In wanderings in cosmic fields</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I came upon an Earth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A serendipitous moment </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A promise of great mirth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In planetary lokas</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A place that seemed like heaven</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A place where Gods dreamed to walk</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In that group of seven</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How blessed am I to be here</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Such beauty wild and rare</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Upon the Earth I'll come again</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To show some love and care</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loka">Lokas - Planetary systems in Vedic cosmology</a>, The belief is that there are 14 lokas 7 upper and 7 lower. Earth resides within the Bhu-loka mandala which is the 7th of the 7 upper planetary systems where the first is highest and 7th is lowest.<br />

My word for 2015 is Serendipity.<br />
<br />
And the year has already begun Serendipitously as a <a href="http://poetryblogroll.blogspot.co.nz/2015/01/life-of-poet-suzy-que.html">featured poet on Poet's United</a> - Thank you Sherry. And as a guest blogger on <a href="http://batteredhope.blogspot.ca/2015/01/the-choices-you-make.html">Carol Graham's blog Battered Hope</a> that also has a poem inspired by my journey on the bus. Thank you Carol.<br />
<br />
The word came to me as I walked around my garden on New Year's day and found these pretty pink flowers that are supposed to bloom in Spring and not Summer.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
The word I chose for 2014 was Joy so it's only fitting to end the year with a poem that depicts Joy or the Bliss of God.</div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Sing that song you sang to me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That intoxicated my heart many millennia ago</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sing that song you sang to me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That made my heart overflow</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Play the melody you played to me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That enticed my spirit and bound me close to you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Play the melody you played to me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That sparked a love so true</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dance that dance you danced with me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That exhilarated my soul through time and space</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dance that dance you danced with me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With cosmic swirls and perfect grace</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For when you sing and play and dance</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Universe hums in harmony</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And souls then sing and play and dance</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And peace prevails consciously</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For joy is the essence of your creation</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And joy is the way to eternal life</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For joy is your blessing for all creation</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And joy is the way to your side.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
The pebble had a strange glow</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She watched it for a while</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why only she saw it she didn't know</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But it did make her smile</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was her special pebble</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seemed it was for her alone</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While her friends played with beads and bauble</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She played with her little stone</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She washed it very carefully</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And offered it fresh flowers</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She sweetly sang some melodies</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She lovingly gazed at it for hours</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a matter of how you view</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And what you perceive</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A stone is just a stone for few</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or God if you so believe</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

The sunrise that heralds a new day</div>

The wind that blows those cobwebs away</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The birds that fly high and low</div>

The flowers that blossom and trees that grow</div>

The butterfly, the moth, the bee</div>

The rivers, and the sand and sea</div>

The wonders of Nature we take for granted</div>

All of creation of which we are enchanted</div>

Perhaps it's all illusion, the conjuring magic of our Creator</div>

Yet man and his inventions often think that they are greater<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
The tattered diary a prized possession</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A life described during sad aggression</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Senseless killing no one spared</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Felt like no one even cared</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't they know that war is futile</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Destroying lives is sad and vile</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope someday the light will shine</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And peace and harmony will fall in line</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When one community called humankind</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tolerance and love for each other will find</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For our souls they weep in sad despair</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And for us all they join in silent prayer</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Imagine a world that's just like heaven</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Where uplifting others is the only obsession</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And kindness is a daily habit</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And we feel the presence of the Holy Spirit</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The tattered diary was a prized possession</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why don't we learn from it and end repression.</div>

I chose the diary of Anne Frank as something that would've been quite ordinary but a prized possession to Anne. Her story touches our hearts and is the inspiration behind my poem. What went on in Anne's mind, did she wonder about a time under God's heaven when peace would be the way?<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Dear Diary</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You know me well</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You know my thoughts</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And memories upon which I dwell</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You travelled with me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Far and wide</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Like a comforting friend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You're by my side</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You shoulder my burdens</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Help me shed my load</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And when I feel timid</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Your words make me bold</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You share in my solitude</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My snippets you enjoy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You laugh at my jokes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Shed tears when I cry</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I enjoy my moments</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In silence with you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You are my dear friend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Selfless and true.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today's little entry</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Is my gift to you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you with love</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Signed, Suzy Que</div>
