Today I cleaned the windows of my soul
It has been a very long time
Since I gazed out of these windows
Funny...... I thought others could see in my windows
with their frilly curtains and knickknacks embellishing the sill
And I waited for them to show themselves
"Why do they not come" ?
I asked myself on countless sleepless nights
If I could not see out,
how then .......could another see in?
Today I cleaned the windows of my soul
And with new perspective gazed upon the world
I rearranged the knickknacks on the sill
and cleaned also the dwelling place of my soul
Once I become comfortable within my soul again ........
I will share it with others, selectively
Until that time ....my frilly curtains remain closed
honoring the stillness I seek.....
inside the windows of MY soul
Harmony Green's blog! This blog highlights the music and poetic, liquid lyrics of Dan Fogelberg. I listen to a shuffled song on my iPod and write an inspired piece from that. The song is listed under 'labels' at the bottom of each entry. Enjoy!

On YOUR Way?
The way we go;
together or alone
The ways we have gone
Before, now, when......how?
Why do I move in the directions I do?
And you in yours?
What force aligns your way with mine...
What then pulls us apart...
is it the same.....opposing or connected
It matters not
The way we go is the way we choose regardless of the cause
Be it "forced" upon us or gifted to us
We own the feet and the intention that
propel us into the wave of the way
Are you going your way?
Are you aware of the choices you are making?
Or, have you given your power to the
way of another?
Gaze down for a brief aware moment
Are those your feet down there?
Or do you see the trodden soil of another
as you walk obediently behind them?
Allow YOUR way
it is the only true home
your feet shall ever
KNOW
KNOW
Your way is........
YOUR path
