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.

In a comment to poem #322, Bill asked, how do we reach enlightenment and achieve the things stated in poems 322 and 321. I realized I could ask the poets, but they would most likely ask me how many ways they need to answer that question. I don’t know that anyone holds the one key to enlightenment, but summarizing the 322 poems, it seems they’ve been telling us that things that help would be:
- meditate/sit in the silence regularly
- while there, ask to be aware of/to connect with your spirit and the Great Spirit/God
- while in this state, simply “be” without trying
- feel the love!
- in a more active meditation, pray to feel spirit as much as possible
- meditate/sit in the silence regularly
- when in full rational mind/active mode, be the loving spiritual being you are by practicing unconditional love, kindness, compassion, non-judmentalism, self-acceptance, understanding, and forgiveness of those who don’t “get it”
- love
- meditate/sit in the silence regularly
- remind yourself regularly that you are a spirit temporarily in a physical body and contemplate what that means
- love with all your heart and soul
- sit with God and trust that the Force is with you and IS you.
- thank God for Life
- ask for guidance
- listen for the answers
- trust that you are being guided
- act on guidance you receive
- love everyone and everything
- sit in the silence and give thanks
- ask to feel the love that is your essence
- sit in the dark and ask to be enlightened
- wait and see what happens
- expect nothing
- recognize that you may never get “there” for “here” is all that is
- relax, and be happy
- radiate love
- sit in the silence ...........
LOVE.

    A beautiful summary, Suzanne...

    Ask for guidance from Spirit within and then listen. Love is the key. Send love to our world. Enjoy the journey toward enlightenment and be patient. Each day brings new learning and growth.
