Top 10 inspirational poems

I haven’t always loved poetry… as a young girl I thought it was a waste of time. I took extra drama in school and I would much rather have been playing out my friends than having to go to the one to one lessons reciting poetry.

Then in my twenties I started to write poetry as a way of expressing myself. Trying to get my feelings, which were often desperation, out and onto paper. I felt that when they were out of my body they were somewhere away from me and therefore heard. And through writing poetry I started reading poetry again. (more…)

Just Being – Peters Poem

Just Being

                          Sitting,
                      Just sitting
                  On Mother Earth,
                          Secure.
            Absorbing Surya’s rays.

 

                         Listening,
                    Just Listening
            To Terns and Wildfowl and
                Their Soundtrack of
                   Communication.
                          Watching,
                     Just watching
                 As the Tides’ stillness
                             Edges
             Deceptively ever nearer.
                          Waiting,
                      Just waiting
                  As ripples radiate
                         Revealing
                   A hidden Presence.
                        Breathing,
                     Just breathing
                    As Prana’s  flow
                   Ebbs in and  out,
                      Revitalising.
                          Stillness,
                       Just stillness
            As all things ever changing,
                            Flow
                       Transform
                          Into this
                         Moment.
                         and then
                        Changing,
                     Just changing,
                 With no  Beginning ,
                      Never Ending
                        Just Being.
