Sunflower Field

The sun is shining brightly here

There isn’t a single fear  

We are roaming free

Like butterflies and bees 

In the ever present, never absent 

Sunflower field. 

We dance around the green grass and leaves

We don’t stop, our heart is finally at ease

Up and down the rows of yellow flowers

Looming above them like strong and bold towers

We are shining bright as the sun

We are finally free 

In the sunflower field. 

Come join me in 

Joyful song, all day long. 

Kick up your feet

Dance to the beat

That is

The sunflower field. 

Swaying in the breeze,

Carefree like bumble bees

We have found a place to rest

The anxiety lifted off my chest,

At the sunflower field. 

I’m safe and protected here

I don’t fear

The light is bright 

My mind finds peace tonight 

Dreaming of dancing by moonlight 

In the arms of the sunflower field. 

Take me in, twirl me ‘round 

Softly tumbling on plush ground,

Listening intently to the sound 

That is the birds and the breeze,

Flying through the trees 

Awakening my need

To be free

In the sunflower field. 

I will always remember you two,

Dancing in step within me,

Finally feeling free 

To be,

In the sunflower field.

Change

The leaves are falling  The birds are singing Everything is the same, but it's different. The wind is blowing autumn's silent song I feel the return of feelings I have held onto for so long. Falling  Crashing Swaying Life feels the same, but it's different. Change is evident in the shifting hues Orange Red Yellow Fading into snow. Seasons come, Seasons go. Everything stays the same, but it's different. The streets clear into the night, Everyone sleeps. The morning's glow is a potent light. Bright, as the day covers the ground, Everything around it stays the same it looks the same but it is different. You have forever changed me. You have forever awakened me in a way nothing else has. I want to feel the same but it is different. I want to look the same but I am different. I want to speak the same but the words are different. What once was, will never be. The transition crashes into me, bringing waves of uncertainty. Questions awaken in me. Frustrations soar out of my...

Image of God

When Ethan and Nathan were born and I saw their little faces, I lit up with joy. Joy because they were alive. Joy because their warmth brought me comfort. Joy to be beside my husband, holding them nestled between our arms. Utter joy. What many do not know is that aside from my boys being conjoined, my Nathan also had a cleft lip. I have heard many people speak displeasingly of this deformity of the lip, but when I looked at Nathan, I felt joy and I saw beauty. I would even go as far as to say that the cleft gave him a little character. There was obviously no need for surgery because of his demise, but in my eyes he was perfect. He was made in the image of God. His Creator knit him perfectly for me. I know it sounds paradoxical because they were conjoined (an obvious developmental abnormality) and Nathan had a cleft (a facial abnormality), but all the same they were God's children and made in His image.  I remember every little thing about the beauty of each of them. Nathan's c...
