| BREEZE ©Dianne Barskey 2007 Feel the breeze on your face Moving you hair Smell the flowers on the breeze So fresh and wonderful See the leaves rustled by the breeze Nature doing its “hair” Hear the whistle of the breeze As it goes past the buildings How amazing is that breeze That can do so many things? The breeze that makes us Use almost every sense. What else can you think of That does all of this? |

| Faeries © Dianne Barskey 2007 Mystical creatures Woodland folk Butterfly faerie Dragonfly faery Wee ones So many names for Such interesting creatures. Fairies portrayed in so many ways. So many no longer believe in you. I want to have many of you Surrounding me all the time. Tooth fairy Fairy godmother Tinkerbell Romanticized for today's beliefs Not receiving the respect you deserve. Somehow we must get people to See and believe in what is Not seen.

| OCEAN RELAXATION ©Dianne Barskey 2007 Ocean surf Ebbing and flowing On the beach and off Bringing seashells And seaweed Scenting the air with salt Soothing sounds Of the surf And the seagulls Seagulls laughing At who knows what Dolphins jumping in the waves Lay back on the sand Listen to all the sounds Soothing, relaxing Bringing peace to a harried mind |

| LOSS ©Dianne Barskey 2007 Loss of a loved one is so hard to comprehend You are never ready for their life here to end You do not want them to suffer But their leaving is rougher And you can not imagine how you will mend Friends try to comfort and soothe Their words seem too smooth They mean the best But you are distressed Try to remember that they want to soothe The suffering has ended for your loved one It is hard to see them in their coffin Know that they are not there But do not despair They are with someone more sovereign |

| REFLECTIONS ©Dianne Barskey 2007 There are so many kinds of reflections Reflections on the surface of water Reflections in a mirror Reflections of yourself in someone else There are also the reflections We each have inside Reflections of the past Reflections of those we love Reflections of what we have survived The reflections of survival Are the most important They help us through everyday When we are at our lowest Is when we need to pull out That resource and use it We can learn so much from Our past experiences They help us to not repeat The same mistakes over The more we listen to our Inner voice that says “Don’t do that! You already learned That lesson,” the better we will be |

| FOREST ©Dianne Barskey 2007 Trees everywhere you look Touching the sky Leaves shimmering in the sun Toadstools and moss Wild flowers of many kinds Bowing in reverence at the bases Fairies hiding among the flowers Waiting for the next bloom To show itself So they can help it along Toads standing watch Waiting for the next fly To buzz by Insects crawling this way and that Through the forest litter Looking for their next morsel So many sounds Crickets, birds, toads, frogs Trees, leaves, wind So busy yet so peaceful |

| FLOWERS ©Dianne Barskey 2007 Beauty in scent Beauty in color Beauty in shape Stems holding the flowers tall Leaves collecting the sun for food Roots drawing in the water Making people feel better Showing love Helping houses smell better Faeries love them They live among them Insects rely on them Beautifying the world Flowers do so many things We need to protect them We need to nurture them Please guard our planet |

| LEAVES ©Dianne Barskey 2007 Green leaves of summer Turning gold and red in fall The first signs that winter Will be here soon. Drifting, twisting, turning Closer to the ground One by one they fall |

| SUNSET ©Dianne Barskey 2007 The end of another day Time to spend with family and friends The sun goes down Dusk begins The moon rises The stars twinkle Constellations shine The day comes to a close Tomorrow is another day You start over at sunrise |

| SUNSHINE ©Dianne Barskey 2007 Find a little sunshine In all that you do. That little bit of sunshine Can make a big difference. Sunshine is important to everyone. It makes us strong. It can make us happy. There are times when it is hard To bear the sunshine. These are the times when We must try harder to see the good. Sadness, depression, whatever you call it, Makes it difficult to go through a day. Sunshine can seem to add to the problem. You have to remember that the sunshine Is the gods way of reminding us That we are good and worthwhile. We are people with feelings. Feelings that are more sensitive , But we are still worthy of everything That others give us. |

| WATER ©Dianne Barskey 2007 Trickling Babbling Rushing Roaring Crashing Listen to the water As it speeds on its way What is it saying to you? Is it saying relax? Is it saying calm yourself? Whatever it is saying You better be listening It is wise and can help you. Just sit and listen to the water. Sit and relax, let your mind Recover from the stress. |

| Thank you very much, sir. I write these to get through difficult times. I am sure that there are more in the works. I have been concentrating on a writing course that I am taking. The course requirements are for longer writings. |

| Thank you very much. I will keep writing. I have found a new source for ideas, my dreams. I never bothered to write them down until last week so now I am going to use them for story lines. I enjoy my poetry and try to make it useful to someone. I would love to find a way to put it all into a book and get it published. |
