The New Year Has Begun

The bells rang

The Angels sang

The New Year has begun

The people came

It's not the same

This New Year will be different

Like every year before

Some will bring you more

Yet each will be special

So do your best

And take a rest

You will make it through

Like in every year

There will be a tear

But also joy included

Don't look too hard

You hold the card

The ticket to your future

So have no fear

Happy New Year

Make this one the best

Happy New Year!

Heaven Opened Its Gates

 

Heaven Opened Its Gates

It was October 17^th, 2012, when I first became hers and she became mine

We met one day in a spiritual chat room, with help from the divine

The forces of love and spirit, kept us together

The love that we shared, was one I'll always treasure

Born in Dallas, Texas was her home state

Late December, Heaven opened up its gate

She was welcomed home, by friends and family

In the place we call home, where we all will be

We never met in person, but believe me when I say

Our spirits joined together, every night and day

She was a great woman, but in a bad place

We got through our life, with a spiritual embrace

Twin Flames is what we were, never alone

On Skype we were reading, and on the phone

Distance wasn't a problem, when it came to our love

We knew we were being guided, by Angels from above

I received an email, from her last night

She was tired, going to bed, then entered the light

I felt her love later, when I went to bed

“I Love You” were the last words she said

Vicki was a wonderful woman. We met on Oct 17, 2012.

We spent many nights on Skype and I would read to her.

She had a hard time breathing, and was in a place she

should never have been in. We were each other's light

in a world that brought so much darkness. We held

hands as we walked forward in time. She taught me

a lot about life and love. I showed her how to have

fun in a world that she feared, where she was. I was

happy to have brought her happiness in her dark place.

I shall always love her.

Once Again Whole

 

Once Again Whole

Everyone reading this, has experienced a loss

Over to the Other Side, they had to cross

“It was way too soon, why did they go?”

From a baby, you watched them grow

Was it their time, to go when they did?

So they could disappear, off of the grid

One thing I do know, deep in my soul

Whatever their problems were here, they are once again whole

The love you shared with them, is embedded within

They carry it with them, when they left their skin

A soul print of all, who have touched them here

When your grief fades, they'll whisper in your ear

For you see, an eternity is what it will be

The connection you share, love is the key

Even though you think, their life had hardly begun

Time will pass quickly, you'll see them when your life is done

If you have a dream, and they stand before you

With words of comfort, please know that it's true

They've come to let you know, they're still alive

They'll be there to meet you, when you arrive

Until then, you must finish your journey here on Earth

Make every moment count, for what it is worth

Believe me when I say, I've experienced many things. I know

without any doubts that we live on in spirit, and so many

times our loved ones come to us to let us know they are still

with us, only in spirit form now. They will give us signs.

Many times we don't always see them, or feel them, or know

them. Yet, they are there, if we watch and are aware, they are

there. The love you share with them, never ends. It sometimes

becomes even stronger. Believe!

Alien Christmas

 

Alien Christmas

On a planet, far away in a distant place

There lived some creatures, not of the human race

They celebrated Christmas, much different there

These purple skinned Aliens, without any hair

With three fingers on each hand, and only two toes

And a dark purple knob for a nose

The gifts they give are from the inside

Of the Christmas tree, which is wide

Each gift is not physical, but made up of light

Which comes from the soul, and is very bright

They each give a part of themselves, which means so much

Into the gifts they choose, which is felt in a spiritual touch

Who is each gift for, and how will they know?

Like a magnet, it will recognize it by the soul

And that one Alien, will sense it to be right

This tree of souls, shines very bright in the night

It's not their whole soul, that is given

Only a part, which is cherished by each Alien living

It is the greatest love, to ever share

When your higher self, is aware

The gift you give, is a part of you

You celebrate this holiday, with all you do

It's an Alien Christmas, on this planet so far away

Where wishes come true, on this special holiday

A Beatles Christmas

 

A Beatles Christmas

Cassie loved the Beatles, she thought they were grand

Abbey Road, Magical Mystery Tour, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

She imagined herself, as one of the screaming girls in the crowd

She knew each song very well, and would sing them out loud

It was one Christmas, her family was gathered at night

What could Santa get her? She smiled with delight

“Well, I don't have “Rubber Soul” or “Revolver” yet”

She wanted them all, so she could complete her set

It'll take time, before she had them all

She really loved John, Ringo, George, and Paul

She was so thankful, to love music like she did

She's been singing these songs, since she was a little kid

Now she is ten, and just starting out

As she sang out a verse of “Twist And Shout”

She first heard them on the radio

That's how she knew them so

Christmas Eve came, she was so excited to know

Santa was coming, with his “Ho! Ho! Ho!”

She hoped, that the Beatles music would be in his sack

She wanted it so badly, she sang out “Get Back”

On Christmas Day, the gifts from Santa were there

She stood there staring, and playing with her hair

Then she saw a wrapped gift, with her name on the top

That must have come all the way, from Santa's workshop

She opened the present, and jumped so very high

“Rubber Soul,” “Revolver,” and “Let It Be” caught her eye

“Yes!” she screamed so very loud

Feeling just like the girls in the crowd

Her Christmas this year, was the best it could be

For the Beatles came through, under the tree

Several days before Christmas, Santa was thinking

Listening to The Beatles, and Egg Nog he was drinking

He always liked the Beatles, and listened to them each year

He was happy to bring one little girl, some Christmas Cheer

The Power To Be

 

The Power To Be

© by Bud Lemire on Dec 1, 2022

I shall walk ahead

Not spend my time in bed

Tomorrow will be the sun

Because my time isn't done

I shall dance and sing

I shall fly with a wing

I shall not lay low

I will go with the flow

I shall be nature's best friend

I'll meet each morning until day's end

I shall be kind to each person I meet

I shall stand steady on my feet

With each new day

I shall always find a way

To make every day the best

And do the same for the rest

I won't falter, I won't fail

I will hammer down on each nail

I have the power to be

The very best of me

A poem for those who are struggling with everyday.

You have the strength to move ahead and be the best

you can be. Don't look at anyone else and where

they are. This is your journey, and you can go at

any pace you want to. You can be anyone you

want to be. Do it! I have faith in you.
