Smile Henry Poems

Majestic, tall, strong
Powerful, life giving, aged
Food, seeds hope
...

My heart is a yearning heart.
A yearning heart for more of what it wishes it had
My heart is a thirsting heart
A thirsting heart for what it once had
...

Thanks for this and thanks for that
Thanks for the known and thanks for the unknown
Thanks for the things loved
Thanks for the unloved
...

Believe in what is possible
Believe in what is impossible
Believe that all things are possible
Believe the impossible can be possible
...

Sometimes words cannot express what we feel. Sometimes the depth of what is rooted in the unseen areas of our hearts are not easily articulated. Have you been in this place before? Have you experienced the invisible waters flowing in the well of inner silence. That's what it is, silence. The best thing when we are in this place, at least for me is, to be quiet. Allow the tranquil moment to resonate throughout the heart, the soul and all that is within. Don't try to figure anything out, just be.

As I write, I am in this very special place. In this place, it is important to just be.When we can just be, we are then free. Can an eagle help but fly? Can a lion help but roar? Can we help but love? The eagle knows it's an eagle. The lion knows it's a lion. We must know we are destined to love, to give and to live. Within these places we find the purpose of God for our life. We find ourselves. No matter what life looks like on the outside, no matter what the world looks like or the economy is projected as. We are destined to live a life of love from within.

Have I forgotten all the great things that have been?
Why is there no smile on my face?
Why is there no rejoicing in my bones?
Why have I no pep in my step?
...

Cold, it's so cold!
Weather, maybe, perhaps more than that
Maybe more than the wind
More than the elements known to the five senses
...

Pitter patter pitter patter
Can you hear the sound of my heart go
Pitter patter pitter patter
