About the Poetry

All of the poems in this blog are spirit-inspired. Every word came to me each day for a full year while in deep meditation. I simply wrote what I heard onto a pad of paper in my lap with eyes closed – meaningful, multi-stanza verses in mere minutes. I was unaware of each poem’s theme until I transcribed it later word for word. Each day brought new and wondrous discoveries about the world beyond our five physical senses, incredible wisdom, and messages of hope which I share with you in this blog. The last poems received are displayed below on this page, but the entire collection of 365+ poems are archived here in the left-hand column. You can search by topic or keyword using the search box in the upper left corner. May you find among them just the right message which speaks to your heart.

Poem #308 - Sacred Symbols

From Show Low, Arizona

Ancient symbols carved in rocks,
Their meaning no one knows.
But that they meant to worship
In the different shapes, this shows.

Sacred forms that carry on
Repeating through the ages.
You see them throughout nature
And in your great books’ pages.

Circles, spirals, triangles …
In each there is true meaning.
Representatives of wisdom -
There for you to do the gleaning.

But one symbol’s universal.
For its simplicity it’s known.
The simple symbol of the heart –
Recognized where’ere it’s shown.

The heart’s the symbol of pure love –
The greatest of emotions
The expression of the light of God
To whom you give all your devotions.

So take this symbol of God’s gift
And wear it on your sleeve.
Exhibit it for all to see
That in God’s love you do believe.

But don’t forget it’s just a sign.
The real thing—this love—is you.
When you awaken to this knowledge,
You allow it to flow through.

Be the walking symbol.
Be love in living form.
Personify the God within.
For this is why you’re born.

  1. How could I not relate to this poem with my love for rocks? "Ancient symbols carved in rocks..." Symbols illustrate Spirit in many forms...and the heart shape is universal...again the "oneness" message to me. We are reminded that we are "love" today...

    On to increasing the flow of love into our world this day...

  2. This poem sounds very much like Arizona. I think of turquois and all the beautiful items and jewelry made out of this stone and the Hopi Indian reseervations where may local crafts are created out of stone, clay and rock...

    "Be the walking symbol, be love in living form".

    Beautiful Poem....
