"Valley Heart", poem by Sonya Rose

In honor of National Poetry Month, I give my free flowing poetic thoughts and aspirations; tapping into Mother Earth [our natural and spiritual life] during troubled times [in America and across the world].

Bring your drifting thoughts, too, back into focus by walking in nature: It's a great way to reinvigorate yourself and gain perspective.

Mother Earth sends her light and love into all of us this Earth Day and everyday. I can appreciate her better and all her benefits, as my own mother.

If you are a soul searcher, like I am, there are great places to go—which offer big answers to your questions—that can help you better understand your current situation(s), or simply give you a new sense of direction, especially when you begin (re)thinking about your purpose, your connection...


VALLEY HEART


Is there some one you know like you, just to touch?
Have you found yet a new place that you love so much-
that you won't stop loving?

A place like someone special is not that easy to forget.
A place—a person, now is it?

I see you can't take your eyes off-
The Valley of Fire;
I know—I cant.
It's burning inside of me.


See a moment like this—becomes you. You-
know the moment: You are the moment.
A wonderful moment when fate takes your hand-
and makes you feel like...smiling...makes you feel, well, almost like crying...


So destiny calls and makes-
you do great things! I bet you don't even realize them all or just how special you truly are!

And, as my day comes to an end,
I will give thanks for it all—whatever that may be...
Well, just being alive is enough-
in the setting sun!
Yes, a sweet, setting sun keeps my dreams alive:
They are peaceful dreams.


...I stand and wait and still...I wait. Your eyes are-
just amazing; They are brightly beaming.


Everyday I am-
lost in this valley of dreams;
Just you and I and-
the fire sky, a heavenly breeze,
a kiss on my face, how you come to me-
so tenderly in this beautiful light.
God, you are so beautiful.

What did you say?

I see...

Well, if you must leave...
I'll see you someday.
I promise, my Eagle friend.
Tonight I'll just lay my head upon a rock-
and dream until the breaking of day...a day that will seem to last forever.

But even in this night—there's still a light:
There's still a hope inside my heart that lets me say:
I will hold on till then-
and I will see you again.


I will see you again.
This isn't the end
You're my forever friend-
and I will see you 'for sure' again.

Good night.

Thank you very much for the warm wishes & ratings. A very warm & wonderful New Year to you, too!

[sonyarose8]

Thanks, everyone. I enjoy new experiences, places...sharing 'em; making homemade vids when I can. Yeah, real close to LV 'mobiltec' is the Valley of Fire State Park. "The Cabins" are right off the main road. They are historic; built by the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) in the 1930's as a shelter for passing travelers (figure temps can reach 125°F ). I love to hear old stories/tales, too. Always up for that.

MAGNIFIQUE....PRETTY WOMAN!!!

[AmplifyingTheLight]

That is beautiful Sonya. What a beautiful soul you are. You are loving life enabling the others to be as grateful as you feel making that emotion a little easier for somebody somewhere to access and feel as well. Because you have placed it in this collective unconscious of ours by your authentic and sincere radiance of that illumined emotion. Bravo! -Atomas Victory
