The Gifts in My Life

I am so grateful to live a life unfolding to see only abundance within

Gifts * After fifteen years of maturing, pure white innocent beauties charmed honey bees in working all over the sweet succulent bouquets

The sun and the moon cherish the buds in green to grow bigger into shiny globes in a few more months

Oleaginous splash spread in the air fills my nostrils as I picked the juice of the heaven, the blessing of the earth are finally handed to my palms

These splendors in golden yellow to marigold hold me so dear

The treasures in my life, such pleasures to see, feel, smell and taste

* Gems * Just like oranges and avocados harvested from our garden for years I have seen my life as the gift out of the heavens and the earth

After many years of trying, I’ve begun to see myself a tiny green bud, growing into a mature woman, who needs very little

All the breeze, the mist, raindrops, the sun, and the moon have settled me into a vessel, who sees profusion

I am so grateful to live a life, unfolding to see only

Abundance within
