The Healing Joy of Writing! Blog#30
The power of meditation, journaling, poetry and writing down our inner thoughts is so healing and such a gift of joy to us and to others. It is through these amazing insights, understandings, wisdom and the validation of being guided by the Spirit that we are. In creating, we heal while letting go of the old and embracing the NEW!
If we are expressing joy and enthusiasm, or deep pain and heart break, as we write and let go, the healing begins. If it’s writing a poem or writing a letter and doing a burning ceremony, the release can be profound.
I have enjoyed writing since I was a little kid and love to write poetry as well.
I would like to share two poems that I have published and one that I wrote this morning:
A Dream Come True
As a child I sat and dreamt of all the days ahead.
If I could be a writer of all the books I’ve read.
The notion was fleeting and yet it stays quite clear.
And beckons me onward and allows me face my fears.
First, it was a doctor, a cowgirl, then a nurse.
I wanted to be a teacher and then an actress and rehearse.
I felt my mission is to preach and keep the world from harm.
I knew I was a Healer, for I learned it on the farm.
My father was a talker and had the gift of gab.
My mother was a giver and always made me laugh.
I know my roots, brought me this far to make me who I am.
The dream is coming clearer, as the journey continues to its end
I know the feelings deep inside, the fears,
the love, the joys, the uncertainties, the realities
the wisdom, my inner voice.
A nobler mission, I’m not quite sure, than writers toward their goal.
It beckons each on their new found path, and speaks clearly from the soul.
I realize, as I write these words the flow, the rhythm, the rhyme
I am a writer, here and now and have been all the time.

Unfolding
The Grace of heaven has touched the sky.
The angels light up every eye.
They know the time has come to see,
A gentle unfolding of you and me.
We open our hearts, with on small question.
That is our life’s own true lesson.
Let’s start from now, and never stray
for on this path will come a day.
We’ll walk and share and seek once more
the gentle opening of our inner door.
It’s open now so let us stay,
In the heavenly presence of this glorious day!

Often I will wake up with a poem in my head. Just the first few lines,
then when I sit down to write it all flows out onto the page.
The Gift of Listening
Our Soul is always speaking
Our Spirit bright and clear
I know all that is unlocking
through the mountain of my fears.
Just clearing and blowing old pictures,
frees us up to know our next step to take.
Our purpose, our mission, our inner guidance
is all we need to create.
Know Divine Grace that leads us on our way,
and be open and willing to listen,
for each moment of every day.
For listening is a Gift, that brings the wisdom through,
the sharing of Love, Joy and Miracles is the Gift we give to YOU!

Go ahead and open the door of your inner sacred creative sanctuary. Ground yourself and then tune into your God Self (Inner Self) and just begin to write and see what flows onto the page.
There are no rules, just writing and letting things flow.
Automatic writing is really fun to experience too. You can ask your guides to show you how. Or just start by asking a question like “What is my next step?” and then just let your pen do the writing.
I’d love to read one of your poems that you have written. Please share in comments below! :)
