In the heat of the day
The sun pours out its radiance
Reminding me we don’t need anything to shine
Sun rays carry the breeze effortlessly
Filling my lungs to capacity
Healing me from the inside out
Creating space to shine
Nature is where harmony lives
Peace is what nature gives
Sunshine
“Where moments of awareness exist curiosity teaches.”
Kerri~Elizabeth
I
Is the depth of a reflection upon water infinite
Where does it start
Where does it extend
Upon a breeze an unsteadiness gives a blur
Calm pristine duplication in the reflection recovers
Steadiness reserves itself
Offering peace to a storm
Sunshine arrives with rain upon its rays
An open sky seems to smile upon the waters
Leaving curiosity to dance upon the moment
Where does it start
Where does it extend
Where pristine is duplicated in a reflection
Love is moved within the awareness
Where does it start
Where does it extend
Rain dances with the sun
Beauty of a moment arrives
Awareness in every breath takes place
Love is in the rays
Love is in the ripples of the water upon a whisper of wind
Love is in the rain asking for the hand of every sunshine rays
Love is
Where it starts
Where it extends
Within
SUNSHINE
Embracing the moments of change teach wisdom in place of resistance and fear.
~Kerri-Eizabeth~
Moments that seem to stop time
Moments where everything aligns
Gentleness and compassion intertwined
Letting go and holding on don’t exist
Presence is perfect
Where streams and rivers run free
Crossing paths with eternity
Then like a tree that falls across the river flow
Forcing a new direction
Beauty of change erupt the soul
Flow is held for a moment
Time is stopped
Panic and anxiety whisper nonsense to fear
Then so clear compassion gently taps
Im here
SUNSHINE
Growth takes a lifetime of strength through every season, don’t miss a drop of rain or a ray of sunshine.
~Kerri Elizabeth~
Whisper to me your journey to the sky
Speak slowly so I can write them all
Share with me every rain drop you’ve felt
Every shiver in the storms
As you stand protecting me
Share with me every ring you earned at your core
As you share, I’m listening
To the winds shuffling your leaves
The crackling among your branches
The dew among the grass sharing precious reflections
May nature always inspire in you growth
Where God so creatively painted all the answers
Sunshine
Oh Momma, you are now free to fly and love at depths that cause no pain, see at lengths you never could and to feel grace under your beautiful new wings.
~Kerri-Elizabeth~
Oh momma
Greif holds no power to what I feel since you left this earth
Grief holds no candle to the feeling since my son went first
You know so well the feeling I could never escape
It seems you may have had that too
The tragedy of loss to so many I have loved so deeply
The closeness of my grandmother, the father that raised me
All gone too soon in tragic endings
Oh Mom I can never erase the years we didn’t talk
The pain you felt when you walked
I can never erase the heart breaks and the misunderstandings it took us so long to shake
I can’t erase the days you wanted to talk about life and never could
I can’t erase the differences that could easily hold “we should”
You losing your mom so early and me never knowing the pain that shook your world too early
As if it was a secret never to be revealed
A past never healed
A memory never shared
Or maybe a pain that never found its way into expressions or words
Or maybe your expressions where the pain
Maybe our differences where the words
Oh mom I feel like I will never know the depth of pain you really felt
But I can tell you I truly feel them all right now with no answer to my calls
Oh, am I calling the wrong line
Have I forgotten it is our hearts that will always be aligned
So many lessons are only learned when the line we always knew is no longer heard
I love you forever MOMMA, thank you for the many many many lessons I learned and all the health you instilled into me, for the nature calls, for the sunshine chasing, for the river dips and lake swims, for growing up where I thought I didn’t want to and now live to get back to it as often as possible.
Thank you Momma for all the research and all the times you followed my adventures on Onstar and told me where every waterfall and river was, where to go off grid but always only where you could still know I lived.
Thank you Mom for the times you could never share your truth with me, because now I search for you and look forward to you showing me in a way you felt you never could.
Thank you Mom for all I have learned and please help me in forgiving so much along my path so I can truly thrive and live.
Help me everyday to be a better mom and Nina(grandma) and teach me along the way!
Love, your only daughter, willing to jump into glaciers, run wild and naked in the woods, to love the deer and kiss the fish, love the daughter you taught to run barefoot in all climates and listen to music not TV, love your only daughter who loved every animal as my sibling, love me mom in all my faults, feisty stance and stubbornness you taught me so well, love me mom and my ways that are much like yours, just searching and looking for the deepest peace!!!!!
Love to my most precious follower, MY MOM
Within the clouds intension and focus are highlighted for your success.
~Kerri-Elizabeth~
Sometimes the seemingly hardest times offer the most pivotal changes
Hunger for the deepest truths drive an unrelentless anxiety to know more
Deeply falling apart coordinates with a rising again
Disappearing into sacrifice opens transformation
Change must persevere while ripples of time disappear
Explanation is not apparent
An inner peace is sacrificed to enter through the clouds
You must purely trust the navigation system studied
Rising above the clouds dances with pure intention
Focus can not be lost
It is within the cloud you will question your strengths
It is above the clouds you will be reminded of your strengths
Never to forget
Once you are above the clouds , you must return
Again you will question your strengths
Again you will be reminded who you are
Fall apart into who you are meant to be
The fall is part of the rising
The rising is part of the fall
The clouds are where intention and focus is planted
Sunshine
The clouds cover the chaos so intension and focus are all that matter. Often we think of clouds as a place we can’t focus.. when really it’s where focus becomes key.
Among the stars there are dreams that are actively living by the light of the moon , the warmth of the sun and held by the whispering breeze of infinite love!
~Kerri Elizabeth ~
Swimming with intention
Weightless and floating
Tears increasing depth
Challenging inner capacity
Peace resides among these many steps
My heart races in sync with loss
Gathering one cellular breath at a time
Slowly reality ravels itself around me
I’m here
He’s not
Where are you my son
Where have you gone
Where is heaven
Will I see you soon among the stars and moon
Do you hear my shattered heart
Do you see my tears
Do you have some too
Do you know you left the earth
Do you remember who I am
Do you ever just sit next to me
Have you asked if you can return
Some days I just want to sit with you
So I do
In ways I never thought I’d have to
Walking through another season
With purpose and reason
I love you and miss you!
Mom
SUNSHINE
~Kerri Elizabeth~
The heat of the sun raises every vibration
Healing decides and resistance no longer exists
Heat melts away worry and contempt is whisked away by the winds
Beauty is among nature and serenity exists where we resist entering
Enter into the freedom of nature and its calling in your soul
Dip into the grounding of the most majestic hills and deepest forests
Listen and lean
Feel and hear
Observe and persevere
Believe and achieve
Silence and stillness
That is where all answers are waiting
Where all emotions are dancing
Where all worries disappear and balance appears
If peace can be found on a mountain top then peace is found wherever you are
Your there , aware, repaired, renewed
On the ground in the sunrays
I found my worries so small
My belief risen
My journey guided
My son present
My love abundant
My life like a river through the canyon
It’ll wind, turn, roar, find calmness, disappear into corners, submerge into curves but always it’ll appear far and near
When it’s not seen it’s not gone
When it’s not heard it has not escaped
Instead, you have arrived to appreciate its wild presence
Lean into the inner wildnerness and adventure it’s language
SUNSHINE
When stillness awakens, it will be movement that creates your story!
~Kerri Elizabeth~
The wind searches for the grass and dances shamelessly
Awakening all stillness
Ripples upon the river speak volumes
Canyons yearn for the echo of a voice
Flowers are sprouting among the spring
Blades of grass, yellow and green arise from the hills
Sunshine widens every horizon with hope, showing nature’s beauty
Nothing is missing , complete serenity exists
Fulfillment is within the winds, flowers, the grass and the brisk breeze
Language is within natures presence and existance is peaceful
Majestic hills speak volumes while the river kisses every curve
Trees with wisdom share a melody
When at the top of the hill
Perspective shows you it is purely where you stand where love blooms
Your heart shows up without asking, do you show up for your heart?
~Kerri Elizabeth~
Complacency will sneak a surprise
Views will be challenged and priority changes
Adaption will trickle through asking to be settled in
Reaction is abrupt and sly, waiting for your awareness
When senses are aware, reaction retreats
Emotion often stretches ahead and reaction is lured by the seduction of emotion
Stillness will speak while flirting with impatience and frustration
Love and awareness play chess with the opponents
Flesh is to be observed when grace is your foundation
It will ultimately be the surrender of action that leads to your most valued awareness
SUNSHINE
