BREAKING THROUGH
Peggy chose to capture the delicate symbolism of mountain wildflowers as an expression of the emergence awaiting within all of us. Her original photographs of the tender, beautiful wildflowers surrounding her mountain cabin compliment her poetry. In this inspiring collection, Peggy shares some of her most thought provoking insights.
Excerpts:
I know there lives inside of me
a spirit of joy, incredibly free
I feel it often, know that it’s there
whenever my life seems filled with despair
When winds of injustice toss me around
I look to the spirit, where calming is found
It shows me a sunset, a rich golden glow,
soothing my senses, helping me know
that injustice, conflict, joy, as well,
are part of living, stories to tell
of the life that is mine -
my personal trial
Lessons in growth to be learned with a smile.
But where is this spirit? so often I ask,
making the search such a difficult task.
I stumble around
trying to find
light in the darkness.
Am I really that blind?
The spirit’s right here,
to be called on at will.
I don’t have to struggle.
I need to be still,
feel its presence inside of me,
lighting my darkness
setting me free
Often I search
for words that are bright
to make me amazing
in everyone’s sight.
I want them to like me,
whoever they are
I’ll do what I must to be a star.
Isn’t that crazy -
giving ego control?
I’ve submerged the spirit,
I’m drowning my soul!
How dare I forget
that the star that is me
shines through my soul
for people to see
Words to impress are ego controlled
As I speak from the spirit I feel love unfold.
If I should decide to go away
treat myself to a holiday,
Pleae don’t bother to ask me where
for I’ll only know when I get there
“but you must have a plan,” I say to me
“That’s the way you are, don’t you agree?”
Not anymore. I’l enjoy this ride.
I’ll trust the spirit to be my guide.
It knows where to go and what to do.
My bossy ego, I won’t listen to you.
The control you assert is merely a test.
Give me a break. Go take a rest!
