Young lady
By Dolores Newkirk
hold your head
don’t fret
it is ok
don’t be afraid
for fear
holds you in chains
and taking steps
may be hard
stand up
let the inner
strength shine
keeping you strong
even while weak
sing a song
for there lies
golden dreams
roads unseen
revelations
as bright sunlight
to be exposed
at the morning dawn
Looking Out
By Dolores Newkirk
Rest on the ledge
Listen to the sound
Find the quiet
Hear your heart
Violin rhythm
Tones abound
Soaring words
Show moments
Open your ears
Take it all in
For today is gone
Tomorrow will come
Rest
Listen
Find
Breathe
Living Words
By Dolores Newkirk
Like a whirling wind throwing about everything
Scattered thoughts are lost
Just as the clouds darken
All is here and there
Gone tomorrow
