You asked me

Moon and stars.jpg

You asked me

For the moon and the stars

And then for the healing balm

To repair your scars

That I deeply sense are still like fissures

Bleeding sadness undercover of words of love

Everything that is in me

Feels your pain

And my tears begin to fall down like rain

As the telephone bings and bings and bings

With icons of hearts and lovely things

Sent straight to my soul from yours

And as I drive homeward bound

I remember one of the first things you ever said to me

All I want is to love and be loved

And so my love

Even though I am not sure

If it is really time for me

To fully give my heart

I am going to open it anyway to this

Because sometimes the universe

Just sends you someone

And there are lessons to be learnt

Mostly of surrender

And so I will when you ask

Say to you

Not only moon and stars

But here my love

Stretched before you

Is the vast night sky

Stretched out

Entire

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.

  1. An absolutely extraordinary finale to your beautiful poem, emotions oozing out of every line,
    And there are lessons to be learnt

    Mostly of surrender
    And so I will when you ask
    Say to you
    Not only moon and stars
    But here my love
    Stretched before you
    Is the night sky
