poem
Echos Through Time
Echos through time I have found my spirit being called to his. There is a knowing inside me that has been there throughout the countless times that I have been born. My spirit longs for his touch, his embrace and his warm breath blending with my own. I am pulled in such a way that words simply cannot describe. The longing aches deep within my being. My heart beats are in rhythm with his, they are in unison. When his heart begins to pound…so does mine, when he is at peace… I am as well. I have heard stories of this kind of connection between two souls. Every cell within resonates with those stories even though his touch I have never known in this life. My spirit has touched him many times, through many lives, I know him, I know his essence. I have looked into his eyes so often that I find myself swimming in the depths of his light. With a heavy sigh, I send my breath on a breeze to him so that when that warm wind reaches his face… he inhales me and he feels me, he knows I am here. Visions of lives that have come and gone, moments shared and memories of what it once was in the many lives before. These moments vibrate deep within me and I know that one day… one day we shall find each other face to face again.
Many Blessings,
Waya
Howling Through the Night
Wandering spirits baying beneath the moonlight
Searching for something to fill their souls
They raise their heads and howl through the night
Crying to the darkened heavens above
We are all searching, searching, searching…
For the same kind of endless love
Sending out the most magical of vibes
The Universe returns the light that has been sent
The feeling upon return is something beyond what words could describe
I find myself howling through the night too
Searching for love to be returned
Can you feel it as it vibrates through you
My light beaming as brightly as can be
Stretching beyond the moon, the stars and the vast space beyond
I smile and know deep within that love will surely come to caress me.
So here I stand alone in the moonlight
Waiting for love to come to me
Howling through the night.
Many Blessings,
Waya
Sing Me Like a song
From my melody to my chorus
Sing as if you were alone in the forest
Know every note, every key
Every word that is me
Sing me like a song
that’s dear to your heart
Sing every line, every part
It doesn’t matter if you sing in tune
or a little off key
as long as this song is me
Make sure the rhymes are soft and sweet
Make the beat, hard and strong
Let the rhythm make you want to dance all night long
Every line should move you
Every word capture your heart
and the ending be a new start!
Sing Me Like a Song

Soaring on the Winds of Time
I am the Raven soaring upon the winds of time….
I bring to you my words .. with and without rhym
I sing my call into the sacred winds so they may carry my words to all that wish to hear
I sing of love, praise, honor and a life without fear
I fly to the North through the gateway of the mind…. and bring back knowledge and wisdom … I met with the buffalo and gained peace of mind. Connecting with the air… I soared the heavens and pondered the philosophies of life
I fly to the South through the gateway of emotions ….and bring back trust and innocence…. I met with the mouse and gained control of my deepest feelings. Connecting with the water… I frolicked in song and dance
I fly to the East through the gateway of spirit … and bring back illumination and enlightenment…. I met with the eagle and connected with our Great Spirit. Bonding with fire I began to create, paint and write once again….
I fly to the West through the gateway of the body … and bring back introspection and intuition… I met with the bear and found myself … my own inner knowing. Bonding with the Earth I found the heartbeat of magic.
I have flown in all directions.. gathered much
Now under the moon … under the sun .. under the stars above…
I give to you balance … I give to you my love
With honor and blessings this night and all
Hear my words .. as the raven calls…
Many Blessings,

I’m Not You… I’m Me
I don’t look like you may think I should, but…
That’s okay because I’m not you… I’m Me
I don’t do things the way you think they should be done, but…
That’s okay because I’m not you… I’m Me
I may not react the way you think I should, but…
That’s okay because I’m not you… I’m Me
I don’t paint what you think I should paint, but…
That’s okay because I’m not you… I’m Me
I don’t say what you think I should say, but…
That’s okay because I’m not you… I’m Me
I may not eat the way you think I should eat, but…
That’s okay because I’m not you… I’m Me
I may not feel what you think I should feel, but…
That’s okay because I’m not you… I’m Me
I don’t see what you think I should see, but…
That’s okay because I’m not you… I’m Me
I don’t believe the way you think I should believe, but…
That’s okay because I’m not you… I’m Me
I’m perfectly good the way I am, being me the best way that I can. We are all different and that’s not bad. Instead of building bridges to keep us apart, lets build them so that we can come closer together. You bring the rope and I’ll bring the planks. Together we’ll build a connection that unites us.
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
Nothing More Than a Memory
I don’t know why, but I started to think about when we pass and then began to think of my own passing and what would be left behind. This is what I came up with in that moment of reflection.
Nothing More Than a Memory
One day I’ll be gone from this Earthly place
Leaving nothing more than a memory to trace.
A glance from your eyes to mine
Something I hope lingers lovingly in your mind.
My mark, I’ve left on many a canvas
Now only memories left to dissolve softly into the blackness.
My words fading from the paper where they were once wrote
Leaving behind only a handful of mindful quotes.
My scent only a few knew, no longer lingering around
My laughter, no longer making a sound.
No projects left to craft
No more designs left to draft.
My love, I hope stays with you til the end of all time
Remember me dearly with a bit of rhyme.
One day I’ll be gone from this Earthly place
Leaving nothing more than a memory to trace.
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
When You Hear the Black Bird Caw
It all started with a shiver and twitch of my nose
I could feel it coming .. a bit of rhyme .. a bit of prose
Magic flowing through the crisp Autumn air
I throw my hands up with a witchy flair
A giggle creeps up from within
Quickly turning into a cackle straight from the loony bin
People then wondering what on Earth I’m up to
Me? Oh nothing .. just stirring my brew!
Spreading magic across the land
With a click of the mouse and a wave of the hand
Eye of newt, toe of dog, vampire’s blood and gargoyle fat
Thrice around the cauldron we go, oops almost forgot me cat!
Boil, boil, bubble and brew
Hold on, this rhyme is almost through
Potions and notions all now complete
May your Halloween be ever so sweet
A quick whistle to summon my broom
Now, off I go .. zoom, zoom, zoom
Magical blessings to one and all
Don’t forget to smile when you hear the black bird caw!
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
Sacred Smoke Rising
Sacred smoke rises as the sun sets for the night
Hear me now as I speak beneath the moon’s magical light
Calling upon the grandmothers and grandfathers of times now past
Grant us these blessings that I now do ask
I weave within this circle that has no beginning and no end
My prayers to the heavens I now do send
To all my relations, these blessing I bestow
Hear my words, close your eyes and let go
May the the wind carry away your fears
May the rain wash away all of your tears
May the sun always keep you warm
May the trees give you shelter through the storm
May the moon bless you as you sleep
May the Earth always offer you plenty to reap
May love find it’s place within your heart
May these blessings be with you until this Earth you do depart.
My weaving, now done for the night
Blessings to all beneath the moon’s magical light.

There’s a Little Something In My Soul
There’s a Little Something In My Soul…
There’s a Mighty Dragon in my Soul.
His fire runs through my blood, coursing through my veins,
building the flames within that push me further than I’ve ever been.
There’s a Fairy in My Soul.
She prances and flitters to and fro, sprinkling her magic all over me as I grow.
Tiny she may be but her magic is greater than I’ve ever seen.
There’s a Wicked Witch in My Soul.
She casts her spells and boils her brew, giving me a life I never knew. Her cackle contagious just like a smile, sharing with me knowledge from a distant isle.
There’s a Healer in My Soul.
Shaking bones and chanting words that resonate deep within. Collecting energy from the air, healing with a sacred prayer. Sage and incense smoke rising to the heavens, giving me knowledge of all these sevens.
There’s a Monster in My Soul.
Big and scary, feeding upon my fears. Kind and gentle, wiping away the tears. He’s there for my protection, certainly a different kind of astral connection. Giving me the ability to face all those things that scare me, his strength is certainly always there for me.
There’s a Unicorn in My Soul.
Mighty and proud, majestically strong. He carries me from one life to another. Safe passage from here to there. His strength, greater then that of ten bear. A stallion getting me to where I need to be, a truly magnificent sight to see.
There’s a Bright and Shining Light in My Soul.
Consuming my being, ridding me of the darkness that lurks inside. No shadows left to fear, only a loving light with the kindness of a deer. Healing me from inside – out. Leaving behind all the worry, stress, fear and doubt. Shining brighter than the nearest star, releasing me from all of this life’s scars.

Dandelion Dreams
Dandelion wishes and sunset dreams
Morning dew sparkling on the grass as the early light beams
A soft hush fills the air
As a breeze runs it’s fingers through my hair
The Meadowlark awakens a song within
Oh sweet melody… where have you been?
The times are changing at last
Join me as I say goodbye to the past
A great teacher it has been
I let go with a happy heart and cheerful grin
What has been done is done
No need to regret the web that has been spun
We start today with an outlook that’s brand new
Learning to love the ever growing spirit that lives inside you.
Dandelion wishes and sunset dreams
Loving life and all that it means!
Dandelion wishes and sunset dreams!
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
Some info about the Dandelion:
(from about.com) Dandelion is an herb that is beneficial from root to blossom. It is one of the most versatile and important herbs to learn about.
Dandelion is a multi-purpose herb. All parts of it are useful. From early spring, when the new leaves are steamed and eaten as a potherb, through the summer, the leaves and blossoms are harvested. In the fall, the roots are pulled after a frost. Even the white, milky sap is used as an effective wart remover. Dandelion is a diuretic that also contains potassium. It has been used as a liver tonic. Regular harvesting will keep the dandelion from going to seed and sowing itself. This will keep the spread of cultivated dandelions out of your lawn. No matter what use you want dandelion for, this easy growing plant is going to be a wonderful addition to your herbal garden.
Knocking at Your Door
Magic is knocking …. knock, knock knocking at your door.
Will you let it in or leave it waiting behind the door?
It’s there all around you, waiting for you to notice…
Wondering if you’ll ever overcome this sad kind of blindness.
Magic is knocking …. knock, knock knocking at your door.
Will you let it in or leave it for others to explore?
Sometimes it’s easy to see and at other times it may not.
Once we begin to believe… it’s noticed quite a lot!
Magic is knocking …. knock, knock knocking at your door.
Will you let it in or are you still unsure?
Magic doesn’t hurt, not one little bit.
It heals hurt, pain and sorrow and lifts the Spirit!
Magic is knocking …. knock, knock knocking at your door.
Will you let it in or carry on without a notion just like before?
Magic is knocking …. knock, knock knocking at your door.
Many Blessings,

The Eagle and the Wolf
You just never know where inspiration will come from.. today is a fine example. Last night I created a dream catcher for a lady who ordered it as a gift for an at risk teen that she has been mentoring. They read a poem called The Eagle and the Wolf and that is what inspired the Eagle themed dream catcher.
This morning I posted photos of the dream catcher and then thought maybe I should search for the poem to post with it and so I did. This is what I found:
The Eagle and the Wolf ~Author Unknown
There is a great battle that rages inside me. One side is the soaring eagle. Everything the eagle stands for is good and true and beautiful and it soars above the clouds. Even though it dips down into the valleys, it lays its eggs on the mountaintops. The other side of me is the howling wolf, and that raging, howling wolf represents the worst in me. He eats upon my downfalls and justifies himself by his presence in the pack. Who wins this great battle? The one I feed.
This poem disappointed me and I am so glad that I did not read it before creating the dream catcher. I would have hated to put in any negative energy that the poem may have brought me into the dream catcher. This poem is a copy cat poem of another about two wolves fighting inside someone. The good wolf and the bad wolf.
The poem about the wolves, I like… the poem about the eagle and the wolf .. I do not and this is why:
When comparing 2 of the same, we say there is the good and the bad side in each of us, we all do have a good and bad side to us and it is true that the one we feed is the one that wins the battle. The poem comparing a wolf and an eagle is comparing two separate animals.. making one out to be good and the other bad. Just as all people are not bad .. all wolves are not bad.
Just because you may not understand something, or someone .. it does not make them or it bad. I should add that also, just because you may fear something … does not make it bad.
It is great that the mentor found something that the teen could connect with .. I just wish it had been a comparison of two wolves or two eagles and not two distinctly different animals. This only separates us. Now this young man will view the wolf as something bad .. instead of understanding more that we all have a choice of who we are and who we shall be.
The point of the story being 2 animals of the same kind was to point out that we all have 2 sides to us that may be different but really are still the same. The two wolves differ in their actions and behaviors but at the end of the day they are both a wolf.

When The Rain Comes Again
When the Rain Comes Again
I will not fall
I will stand my ground
And hold steady my stance
When the Rain Comes Again
I will not be overcome by the murky waters
I will reach up and stand tall
I will not leave my life to chance
When the Rain Comes Again
My fears will not win
I will not … give in
When the Rain Comes Again
I will remain strong
I will hold onto that inner knowing
The light within will remain forever glowing
When the Rain Comes Again
I shall face the wind
I shall face the rain
It will know my strength
It will know my will
It will not cloud my mind
I will survive the rain
When the Rain Comes Again

My wings, you may not see
My wings, you may not see
But I can fly just as pretty as you please
I drift among the clouds and float upon the winds
I soar over the fields and dance atop the trees
My wings, you may not see
But I can fly… just sit back and watch me
The body feels what the mind can see
I am strong like the eagle, gentle as a butterfly, yet as swift as a honey bee
My wings, you may not see
But I can fly across the ocean or over the top of a mountain range
When I’m flying, my visions come clearly into sight
I know to some, this seems quite strange
My wings, you may not see
But I can fly, quick like any dragonfly
For when I soar, be it day or night
The winds of life lift me up and set me free
My wings, you may not see
But I can fly…. just trust me!
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
Through Raven Eyes
Through raven eyes I see the past, the present and the times to come..
Looking beyond the veil into the dream world where spirits dance
Seeing what others miss, Oh what fun!
With raven ears I hear the whispers from ancient times.
The sounds of Mother Earth that to most are unheard.
With these raven ears the words are translated quite often with poetic rhymes.
With raven wings I soar the great blue heavens above
Drifting on the currents of healing light
Where perspective is in sight and my heart fills with never-ending love.
With a raven voice I call out on the winds of change and hope
With healing intent and frame of mind
To bring light and love with prayers to help you cope.
With raven eyes I see more than most do.
I see the beyond the mask, beyond the shield..
With raven eyes, I see the real YOU!
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
The Story You May or May Not Know
There is a story inside me you may or may not know
I’ll try to explain it with a bit of rhyming flow.
This story runs deep, straight to the core
It begs for you to know me just a little bit more.
From my childhood to this adult like life
The girl, the friend, the lover, the mother and the wife.
I’ve been through the jungle and survived many a war
I’ve been lost but also found what I was looking for.
I’ve been held captive and I’ve known what it’s like to soar
I’ve found the keys and unlocked some doors.
Some right, some wrong
But through it all I have become ever so strong.
At times all I wanted to do was flee
But that wasn’t really me.
I’ve learned to conquer many of my fears
It has taken lots of practice and many years.
But here I am today as I stand
Offering you a welcoming hand.
Come into my world and see what I see
You’ll get a little glimpse of what it’s like to be me.
The many hats that I wear
The way it feels when people give you that stare.
The love that I give and the friends that I gain
And lets not forget how much fun it is when we dance in the rain!
From my hand to yours
I welcome you to know me just a little bit more.
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
All Hallows
All Hallows
All Hallows is drawing ever so near
Shhhhhhhhh, what’s that creepy sound I hear?
That’s the wind now blowing a cooler breeze
Creaks and moans radiating from the branches of the trees
They say the veil between worlds is growing really thin
Spirits are said to cross over and glide across the land with the wind
Vampires, werewolves, monsters and witches too
I have heard that they would like to meet with you
The vampires looking for a bit of a snack
You better watch out for that shadow lingering over your back
The werewolves ready their voices now
For when the sky darkens they will begin to holler and howl
Monsters of every shape, size and kind are said to come out
Scaring the children making them scream and shout
The witches cackle and ready their brew
On the hunt for a lizard, a toad and a rat or two
Don’t worry, there’s nothing really to fear
It’s just that time of the year
When all things spooky and unknown come out to play
Causing chaos and fright all night and day!
I love this time of the year when the breeze turns cold
When candy is free and spooky stories are told.
All Hallows its coming soon….
What was that, that just flew past the moon!
All Hallows
Many Blessings,

To Believe
To Believe
To believe is to know that every day is a new beginning.
It is to trust that miracles happen, and dreams really do come true.
To believe is to see angels dancing among the clouds,
To know the wonder of a stardust sky, and the wisdom of the man in the moon.
To believe is to know the value of a nurturing heart,
The innocence of a child’s eyes and the beauty of an aging hand,
for it is through their teachings we learn to love.
To believe is to find the strength and courage that lies within us,
when it is time to pick up the pieces and begin again.
To believe is to know we are not alone,
that life is a gift and this is our time to cherish it.
To believe is to know that wonderful surprises are just waiting to happen,
And all our hopes and dreams are within reach.
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
If I could share…
If I could share with you a bit of me I would ask you to take hold my hand and let go
Let go, not of my hand .. but of all else .. so that you can experience what’s inside me
Holding my hand you would know my pain and that I hurt just as you when things go wrong
You would know my love and how its always growing
You would know my tears an what gets them flowing
You would know my passion and the roar of its fire
You would know my song without hearing it sung out-loud
You would know my heart and what makes it melt
You would know my touch.. both gentle and strong
You would know my faith and the strength of my will
You would know me just by holding my hand and standing still
You would know my faults, my failures and my sad regrets
You would know me and all my secrets
You would know not just what you see but those things that don’t always show
You would know me … just by holding my hand and letting go.
Many Blessings,
Waya

From a thought to a dream
From a thought to a dream
From a dream to reality
We all have within us this ability
To make our wishes and dreams come true
The power is there, sitting deep inside you
Thoughts become words, words become action
The universe works in reaction
Speak out loud, what you wish to see
Answers will soon come to thee
With honor and love in your heart
For the dream to come true
You must play an active part
Walking in the direction of your dream
It’s not as easy as it may seem
Obstacles sometimes block the way
Never give up, no matter what anyone has to say
Positive thoughts and actions ease the trail
Don’t worry about “What if I fail”
Where there is a will, there is a way
That’s what I’ve always heard them say
So follow your heart and you shall soon see
What was once a dream, has now become reality!
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
These Pages
These are the pages of my life…
Turn them with ease, gentleness and care.
My soul, these pages do bare
This path is mine, not unlike yours
Full of many roads, hallways and doors.
Tears, laughter, sorrow and pain
Lessons learned again and again
Secrets whispered in the night
Wishes placed on the wings of butterflies in flight
These pages contain all that is me
Bound in leather, written for all to see
Scrapes and bruises, stitches and scars
Always dreaming beneath the stars
Creating for creation’s sake
Sitting with my love by the lake
Kisses and cuddles late at night
Seeing with second sight
Ghosts and spirits roaming about
Wondering what this life is all about
A smile.. a look
It’s all right here.. written on the pages of this book
Fairy tales that do come true..
Have a seat and let me tell you
My light, at times has nearly gone out
My head filled with so much self doubt
This life has had it’s highs and lows
But that light in me… still it glows
I’ll not give up on the dreams I dream
It’s never as easy as it may seem
Twists and turns, wear and tear
Let me tell you… I’ve been there!
It began with “Once upon a time…”
Just like in those old nursery rhymes
There will be no end… you see
For my soul will continue on buzzing like a bee
So, I’ll see you in the here after
Living Happily ever after.
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
Fuss and Fret
No need to fuss and fret
No need of worry and regret
What is …. will be
What was is now gone
Let pain and sorrow be strangers from your past
Remember it’s just temporary … it won’t long last
Find that place deep inside
Where love and light do reside
Find the peace within and let it flow
Now, doesn’t that feel better … letting it all go
No need to busy yourself or rush around
Simply plant yourself firmly in the ground
Now breath deeply .. in and out
Ease your mind of all self doubt
Harness your own power
Let it wash over you like an April shower
Know and trust in you
All your dreams have the possibility to come true.
It begins with just one word that I’ll now say
Then, I’ll flap my wings and fly away.
“Believe.”
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
Feeling the Flow
Inspired by a post I read earlier this morning about feeling the flow and energy of all things.
________________________________
It’s here and there .. it’s all around us everywhere!
It’s energy fills us and brings us into being
It’s something worth feeling .. something worth seeing…
The flow, it comes in waves of greatness
Swirling all around and bathing us
It’s not in just you and me
It’s in the buzzing of every bee and the whisper of every tree
It’s in the lake, the pond and every river, ocean and stream
It fills us like the visions in a dream
Circling all around us in a swift and steady fashion
Feeling the vibration is beyond words or imagination
The Earth and it’s hummm
Like the beating of an ancient drum
Pounding deep from within it’s core
Feeding life into each and every pore
Rushing through flesh and bone, wood and stone
It’s always there and never gone
Feel it now with your heart, soul and very being
Close your eyes and experience with me this amazing feeling
Feel it now with more than just your hand
Feel it as it moves across the land
The flow of life as it sways to and fro
That fills us all each and every day as we grow
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
A Mother’s Day Wish
This isn’t the typical Mother’s Day wish you see..
This isn’t a wish for mother’s like you and me ….
It’s the wish we, as mothers make
For our child or children’s sake!
It’s the reason we fuss and fret
It’s why there are rules we must set.
It’s not for the reasons that you think you know
It’s not because we like grounding and saying “NO!”
The wishes a mother makes ….
Are in hopes that her babies don’t make the same mistakes
You see it starts before you begin to breathe and cry
We set out in hopes to bring you a much bluer sky
We wish you safety and a road not quite so hard
We wish for you to never know the pain of a broken heart
We wish for your travels to always be a blast
We wish you love that will surely last
We try to protect you …and keep you from that inevitable fall
Our goal is to be there when you have no one else to call
May your years be kinder
May your love be grander
May your days be filled with greatness
May your worries be less
So you see it’s not that we just want to nag and fuss
We only meant for you to have a better life than us ..
P.S. Happy Mother’s Day to all the Moms out there!

It needs to be cleaned out on a regular basis or it gets all cluttered up and before you know it you are depressed and overwhelmed with all the trash and clutter and you won’t even know where to begin to clear it out. So take the needed steps to clear away the clutter so that you can enjoy the new, fresh, clean surroundings. Throw out all the stuff and crap that is not needed and that is not productive or helpful to you and make room to finally breathe from within.
In the Darkness of the New Moon In the darkness of the New moon I fly about to see what there is to see… There is no light and no shadows to chase me.. Flying about the void, this darkened space… I let go my worries as the wind blows across my face.. My fears aside I look at starting something new….. And as I look within, to myself I must stay true….. Blessed be the tasks I begin this night … May they be in bloom by the Moon’s next full light… Fear not the darkness of the New Moon… Tis the time for new beginnings and to get yourself back in tune.. As I fly away on the currents this night when the moon in new… I begin my tasks and send out prayers and wishes of dreams coming true… Blessing to every man, woman, child and friend…. May you find happiness, love and riches of the heart….. And may your dreaming never ever end!
Many Blessings, |
A Facebook Christmas
‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the land of Facebook
Not a creature was stirring, not even a spammer or a crook;
The statuses were posted on the wall for all to see,
In hopes that a friend or two would reply… ok maybe three;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of “what presents will I get” danced in their heads;
Me in my pj’s just about ready to call it a night
Not a Facebook friend in sight,
When out of the blue a notice appeared before my eyes,
I sprang to attention to see what and who has replied.
I opened a new window like a flash,
So the game I was playing wouldn’t crash.
The moon through the window casting a magical glow
Gave the lustre of gold to this addiction we all know,
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
Friends popping up online everywhere!,
With a little click of the mouse, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment this Facebook addiction was sick.
More rapid than eagles it courses through my veins,
It beckons and calls out my name;
“Now, Bear! now, WolfDancer! now, Christy, Ruth and Pattie!
Ahhhhh, without my online friends I’d be even more batty!
To the top of the page! to the top of the wall!
Here’s a brand new status for you all
I’m waving hello .. can’t you see
Ok then, here’s a new profile picture of me
So to all my friends, I send a message or two,
Sending love and blessings for a Year brand new.
And then, in a twinkling, I send out a little rhyme
Thank you all for being my friends here at Christmas time!
As I sat in my chair and was turning around,
The hubby stood there shaking his head and making not a sound
He was dressed in his pjs and ready for bed,
And stood there just shaking his head;
He said let’s go – its time to hit the sack,
I said ok love, and to my friends on Facebook I left a brb (be right back)
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
I followed him quickly to bed
To all my friends I finish this rhyme I write
With a “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night.”
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
When Our Season Comes …
When Our Season Comes …
Summer now gone, winter is approaching fast
As the October wind comes blowing by
I stand in awe beneath the light, the moon does cast
And with a deep breath I let out a heavy sigh.
No time to stop … no time to rest
All we can do .. is our very best
The years keep coming and rolling past
The clock keeps ticking and time is flying by so fast
We look in the mirror and can’t believe our eyes
There’s no hiding … everyone must know
The years, oh how they do show
It’s in our eyes and all over our face
Hoping to age with a bit of grace
Feel the chill upon the breeze
Dear Creator, allow us age with ease.
May our aches and pains be few
May we be reborn of love with each morning dew
Lessons have come and lessons have gone
Life is our path and we must march on
Written in our memories… the life we’ve lived
May the love and knowledge gained from our travels be the gift we give
The pages of our life we turn with our own hands
May the path before you be a new beginning with no dead ends
Wisdom, our harvest from seeds once sown
May love and kindness be for what we were known.
When our journey finally comes to a stop
We’ll meet again on the mountaintop.
Our life now a whisper upon the breeze
When it comes time to say goodbye, may we pass with ease
Please be kind and smile when you see a passing dove
For our soul will be soaring with the greatest love
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
One Thousand Times
One Thousand Times
One thousand times I’ve been born
One thousand times I’ve died
The years have passed by like a soft whisper in the wind
Days and nights gone without my knowing
One thousand paths I have walked
One thousand lessons I have learned
Tears I have cried for so many reasons
Smiles, laughter and love have helped me make it through the seasons
One thousand rights
One thousand wrongs
Blessings and curses bestowed upon me
Love, the miracle that always brings me back to why I’m ME
One thousand ways
One thousand times
One thousand pairs of eyes
One thousand ways to see
One thousand lips to be kissed
One thousand people, wondering if ever they were missed
One thousand ways to go
One thousand reasons to live again
One thousand times ……

I Must Write!
>
The moon is growing full and the shadows dance softly across the wall…
Spirit speaks to me and I must answer the call
So, I write
I have tell you the words forming in my head
They swirl around like a whirlwind of Autumn leaves caught in the wind
Chasing after one another with no beginning and no end
and so, I write
My heart beats loudly, as if it is my own sacred drum
It’s hypnotic… like a transic thunder
I know this must sound crazy to some
But, I must write
The words, they come always in some sort of rhyme
I try to keep the words from matching
But they always end up sounding the same every time
and I continue to write
The words… what do they mean…is there really a story to be told
I often wonder what its all about
Wondering if answers will come when I’m grey and old
Spirit speaks … whispers in my ear
and so, I write
The animals have a voice
They not only speak, but also sing and call
If you can’t hear what they are saying, then that is your choice
and I write
Listen carefully.. its beyond the words that you hear
You say you have no clue what I’m saying
I say, let loose your fear
and I keep on writing
Hoping one day that you’ll know
You’ll get it, you’ll hear
You’ll have that moment when the world stops and you’ll shout WHOA!
and I’ll still be writing
Relaying messages from places of great mystery
Especially when the veil is thinning
That’s when the spirits past say, “Oh wow… she can hear me!”
and I write
So that thier messages can make it through
So their voices can still be heard
This is how it works.. through me – straight to you
So, I must write
This is the way it will be until my end
When I lay upon the the grass and close my eyes
With one last rhyme to send
I’ll write
Hold not onto fear
Caress dearly all that you love
That sound in the distance – that song in the wind
Remember, thats the Raven’s call that you hear!
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
What Do You See?
Do you see the love I hold deep in my heart?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the pain from a broken past?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see a mysterious knowing?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the child that lives and plays within?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the longing for love’s embrace?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see fear manifesting from places untouched?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see a stir of creativity?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the stories I have lived?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the quiet that only comes with age?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the daring for adventure and life?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see compassion and faith?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the struggle and the fight?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the love and the light?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see my heart and how it beats?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you sadness and wonder from where it comes?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the road I’ve traveled?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the wonders yet to come?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see my spirit and how it likes to play?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see the smile?
When you look into my eyes…
Do you see me?
When you look into my eyes
What do you see?
Many Blessings,

Magical Moon
A little something I jotted down last night before going to bed…
Magical Moon
Magical Moon with a light so bright
Watch over us all and protect us through the night
When you’re large and full of grace
Even when we can barely see your face
We know you are always there
Your magic fills the air
Waning and waxing as the nights come and go
Feeling that mystic tug and tow
Abundance and blessings you give without take
Please accept these prayers we now make
Our words we send to thee with love
We cast them to you and the heavens above
Magical Moon in the night
Thank you for the dreams, the visions, the second sight
A blessing at the end of each day
You light the darkness in a loving and magical way
Carrying with you the secrets from ancient times gone by
Your presence is felt beneath the starry night sky
Magical Moon thank you for your love, thank you for your light
Thank you for watching over us every single night.
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
A message in the Raven’s Call
>The Summer breeze has cooled and signs of Autumn fill the air
Spirit has brought me a message I must share
On the night when the moon was new
Spirit brings love and blessings for me and you
The days grow shorter and the nights ever so long
Listen close and you shall hear your soul sing its song
The answers you seek are not so hard to find
It all becomes clear when you quiet the mind
It doesn’t matter where we are along our path, our own sacred road
It only matters our walk along the way, this is what I’m told
Connect to each other we are
No matter how near, no matter how far
Spirit whispers in my ear
You are not alone, there is nothing to fear
You have what it takes to make it to the end
Open your arms and feel Creator’s embrace upon the sacred wind
Don’t hold back, be who you were born to be
The mysteries shall unfold and you will see
The time is coming, an awaking is near
Spirit is speaking… can you hear
Through you, a stranger, a friend or even me
The messages are there and clear as can be
You must open your eyes and listen with your heart
In this walk we share, we all play a very important part
Not sure of your particular role?
Don’t worry, it’s all there written in your soul
The messages may come by way of wolf, bear, tiger or even by way of a raven’s wing
No matter from which it comes, the message is from a place of love that we bring
Now close your eyes and count to three
I send blessings to the ancestors and thee
With honor and love .. thank Creator for this time
Allowing me to share a message with you in rhyme
To the grandmothers and grandfathers of all the nations, I pray and ask for blessings for us all
And thank them for hearing this raven’s call.
with love and honor, aho
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
No Time To Sleep
>
Feeling like I’m in a bit of a trance
The visions are coming … they wanna dance
Skipping and hopping all through my head
As I lay .. tossing and turning in my bed
The air… soon to turn from warm to cold
I’ve got stories … yet to be told
More chapters to add to my book
I close my eyes for a peek.. a quick little look
What’s that whisper Spirit speaks in my ear
There’s still work to be done.. get ready my dear
Oh great, there’s lots more to do
Sorry, it’s a secret and I can’t yet tell you
Looks like I’ll be working beneath both the moon and the sun
I’ll be working til it all gets done
No time to rest
I have to do my very best
Staying on top of my game
Afterall .. Raventalker IS my name!
These visions that come in the night
They show me the way, the path thats right
Obstacles to overcome and hurdles to leap
They show me the way, while I sleep
Like the Autumn breeze
The visions dance through my head with ease
Here they come.. I’ve got to go
It’s time for a another late night show!
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
If I could share….
If I could share with you a bit of me I would ask you to take hold my hand and let go
Let go, not of my hand .. but of all else .. so that you can experience what’s inside me
Holding my hand you would know my pain and that I hurt just as you, when things go wrong
You would know my love and how its always growing
You would know my tears an what gets them flowing
You would know my passion and the roar of its fire
You would know my song without hearing it sung outloud
You would know my heart and what makes it melt
You would know my touch.. both gentle and strong
You would know my faith and the strength of my will
You would know me just by holding my hand and standing still
You would know my faults, my failures and my sad regrets
You would know me and all my secrets
You would know not just what you see but those things that don’t always show
You would know me … just by holding my hand and letting go.

In the Darkness of the New Moon
In the darkness of the New moon I fly about to see what there is to see…
There is no light and no shadows to chase me..
Flying about the void, this darkened space…
I let go my worries as the wind blows across my face..
My fears aside I look at starting something new…..
And as I look within, to myself I must stay true…..
Blessed be the tasks I begin this night …
May they be in bloom by the Moon’s next full light…
Fear not the darkness of the New Moon…
Tis the time for new beginnings and to get yourself back in tune..

Have You Heard?
Have You Heard …
Have you heard the whispers upon the wind ?
The story of the butterfly and its romance with the breeze…
How it glides on love with beauty and ease?
Have you heard the whispers from within?
The call that pulls and steers you along your path…
Have you heard the whispers from ancient times?
The voices that ring of truth and healing…
Have you heard the whispers … do you know that feeling?
Have you heard the whispers from distant places?
That knowing … that place inside you that keeps on growing?
Have you heard the whispers of the land?
Mother Earth speaking …
And with every chance… lending a helping hand?
Have you heard the whispers in the night?
The dreams.. the visions… that come from not from the eyes but some
other kind of sight?
Have yo heard the whispers the animals speak?
Guiding you along the way ..
Can you hear them and the messages they wish to relay?
Have you heard the whispers from the great beyond?
Words.. warm and full of support from the heavens above
Have you heard the whispers and felt the love?
Have you heard the whispers today?
Have you ?
Have you heard?
Many Blessings,
Raventalker
