Shine as bright as you?

Then I know how

Asahi by C.J.
|
||
--------------
|
||
(asahi [ausa-he] is japanese; asa-morning, hi-fire)
|
||
|
||
Asahi, the morning fire,
|
||
rise oh body, for my soul to spire.
|
||
Gyrations of another day,
|
||
never ending, always flowing,
|
||
the dance we call creation.
|
||
Centered is the one who seeks,
|
||
for intution is always knowing,
|
||
so I call upon the "Asahi"
|
||
to keep the sparkle glowing.
|
||
Asahi, morning fire,
|
||
Creator of new life,
|
||
balancing the course of nature,
|
||
oh heal me of my strike.
|
||
Warrior, flow through me,
|
||
for it is strength that I desire.
|
||
Walk with me, this troubled day,
|
||
so that with peace,
|
||
I may retire.

Conifers silent witness

To night wind's echoed vows.

Bearing our promises upward

Through universal whiteness
|

To the sepulchre of God.

Touch me once for all time,

All lives that are to be...

Our love enshrined.

Marry me under the gaze of stars.

THE WIND IS SIGHING by Nyko
|
||
----------------------------
|
||
|
||
The wind is sighing thru the trees
|
||
And Night has drawn her velvet cloak
|
||
Jove's heaven sparkles high above
|
||
And Juno sails her lovely boat
|
||
|
||
I am here and all is now
|
||
The candle patiently awaits the flame
|
||
All thoughts are stilled, all tensions
|
||
gone
|
||
|
||
No cares for this life's hectic game
|
||
|
||
A part of all that is I am
|
||
A spark within the light divine
|
||
All that I need I have within
|
||
I carry with me all the time
|
||
|
||
Bright Lord and Lady of abundance
|
||
Spread your protection round this place
|
||
As I weave my magic, gently, softly
|
||
Smile upon this private space.
