Drop of pearls

No words can ever describe

The feelings that’s wasting inside

The loneliness

Deep in the soul

The big and monstrous emptiness

The cries for something more

Like little drops of pearls

The tears fall quiet down

See the pain

Just comfort me

Without no need for me to explain

Show that you understand

Be my light and safe haven

Help me to conquer my fear

Show the way

Help me remember

The place in which I always will stay

I'll feel no need to escape

Daydreams….

Looking out my window view

Takes me off to daydreaming

The treetops are so magical

Wooded hills as far I see

all through the horizon

My mind is drifting far away

I travel through my thoughts

I visualize a lake near by

A perfect picnic place I see

Where I can find my peace

A perfect place to meditate

And have some quiet time

So perfect for a bonfire

And sit all through the night

With you there by my side

Fall is coming…..

Fall is coming…..

Fall is coming…...

Sense the air getting crisper

See the colors of the leaves are changing …..

into cascades of all shades of yellow, orange and red

Beautiful, beautiful colors

Sun is still warm in the midst of the day

So many magical trips into nature to look forward to

Live…

Enjoy…….

Be……….

Sense………

Fall is coming……………..

Moon Magic

The full moon shines so very brightly

through my open window glass

I cannot sleep – I feel so drawn

to sit and gaze at the moon

I feel empowered - so energetic

I drift into a state of bliss

So powerful and magnified

This radiant energy is

Showered in stardust – lifted above

Right through to another dimension

A captivating feeling, in awe I AM

When the full moon casts its magical spells….ღ

Reaching the top

Walking in Mother Earths magical nature

Passing calm creeks and wild waterfalls

Watching the sun sets,

The sky is on fire

lit up in all gorgeous shades of red

As I go further, the land’s getting steeper

Carpets of beautiful flowers I see

Butterflies swarms

They’re all around me

Like they are here to watch over me

I follow the path, getting higher and higher

Reaching to get to the grand mountain peak

My body is aching

And I’m all out of breath

As I tired fall down to the ground

The powerful feeling of reaching the top

Sink into my mind as I’m catching my breath

I’m looking around

In awe I must say

The most spectacular view is unfolding

I sit here so quiet, for hours and hours

Embraces the sights from “the top of the world”

The moon casts it beams

like magic around and

I feel like I’m being in the midst of a dream

It suddenly hits me in waves how this’ working

The interconnections seems all very clear

Consciousness rises

a deep state of mind

An eventful journey for body, soul and heart

This wonderful experience is quite overwhelming

Gives the greater perspective and wholeness much sense

I am humbly grateful

I’m feeling so honored

In every level and dimension I feel so aware

I celebrate the beauty of all that’s around me

I also know now I have all this within

As I start walking down

My body is moving

But wherever I go I will never be “back”!

You!

You light up my world - like the full moon

You brighten my days - with your smile

You give me a feeling of wholeness

- and I truly sense I’m alive

You make me feel safe and courageous

You send me the greatest vibe

You give me tingly butterfly feelings

- and I truly sense I’m alive

You make me feel gorgeous and sexy

You make me feel worshipped and adored

You send me straight off to heaven

- and I truly sense I’m alive

With you - my life has a greater meaning

With you - I can be my true self

With you - I am sure of acceptance

- and I truly dare be alive

Senses of summer

Oh how I love those summer mornings

far out on a boat

anchored up at some slope of rocks

enjoying the quietness

looking out over the tranquil sea

experiencing the sunrise,

smelling the salt of the water,

feeling the warmth of the rocks heated by the sun,

seeing the occasional seagull soaring by

hearing their faded cries in the background,

sipping morning coffee and just be.......

A taste of heaven!

Rainbow

Rainbows thrill me time after time

It is nature’s beauty appeared like a sign

You cannot touch

you cannot feel

But we’ve all decided to believe that it’s real

A moment you’ll see it – then suddenly gone

It seems like magic, what has been shown

The sight is gorgeous

The colors so glorious

The way they sparkle and shine

Red is for love

Orange will glow

Yellow keep shine like the sun.

Green is for Earth

Blue for the Ocean and

Indigo symbols the Moon.

Then last but not least the

Violet beams for flowers and blossomy trees

All of the rainbow I keep in my heart

I hope forever it radiates me.

My magical wood

I enter in awe ~ my consciousness rise

I feel so alive ~ when I’m in here I praise

All this beauty around

All I see ~ all I sense

The magnificence of all that surrounds me

It’s a magical place, like a world of its own

Time will cease to exist when I enter this ground

Harmony, peace and bliss

I can see, I can sense

The lovingly whim that surrounds me

On the soft forest floor, I gently sit down

Amazed by the growth that covers the ground

It’s energy, beauty

I see and I sense

The vibrancy of all that surrounds me

As I sit there so still, I blend in with all

if I listen real tight I hear a soft call

Eyes closed, senses sharpen

I see and I sense

The richness of life that surrounds me

The energies felt and the sights that I’m shown

Displays new perspectives into I have grown

I’ll keep in my heart

The sights and the sense

All beauty of universe surrounds me

I could stay here forever in my Garden of Eden

This wood is my paradise I hereby this deepen

I smell, hear, and taste it

I feel, see, sense

Source energy merges and surrounds me

~ Ellen Slyngstadli ~ © April 2010 ~ All rights reserved ~

Connected to nature

In the woods I feel so free

connected to each stone and tree

To know that we’re all one - not part,

tranquility and peace at heart

Each tree I see I want to greet

To warmly hug and take a seat

beside it’s trunk, ~ feel the love

and energy that through us flow

A frog that jumps, a sign to me,

on my sleeve down sits a bee,

birds flying by, a message cries

they all are telling us to rise

All souls, all creatures, all to be,

a piece in one machinery

Alive and breathing all in one

Look within and feel the bond

Calm and balanced in my soul

Refreshed in oneness with the soil

Look in your heart and find the course

to remember that we’re all of Source

Love is ღ

Love is the force that makes us tick

Love is what gives us the best of kicks

Love is in every form and shape

Love is surrender and no need for escape

Love is the glory that comes from the heart

Love is the glue that keeps us from part

Love is the nourish for every soul

Love is what never will ask for a toll

Love is real and love is pure

LOVE IS – for sure

Soul connection

All my life I felt so alone

Alone in any crowd

Alone in any setting

Alone with friends

Alone in relationships

Alone deep down in my soul

Looking out from within, like a stranger to this world

I’ve looked for the ones to whom I would feel connected

The crowd where I feel connected

The setting where I feel connected

The friends which I would feel connected

The relationship where I feel truly connected,

Connected deep down in my soul

Looking in from within, awoken to oneness

Views of life ~ from a teen in the 80's

I found a bunch of writings from my teen days, and I wanted to share some of them here. In this post there are several small poems from a teenager searching for the meaning of life ☺

What’s happening inside me

It’s something I can’t understand

There’s funny feelings around me

What’s happening to me

Am I starting to grow up

Or am I still just a child

Sometimes,- I want to be a grown-up

Sometimes;- I want to be childish

I can never be a whole time grown-up.....

ღ ☼*♥*~ ☼ ღ♪♫♪♫♪♫Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ♪♫♪♫♪♫ღ ☼*♥*~ ☼ ღ

I want to go away

Just live like a free bird

But is the life just a sweet dream out there?

Or is it just an imagination in my head?

It’s so many things I wanna do!

ღ ☼*♥*~ ☼ ღ♪♫♪♫♪♫Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ♪♫♪♫♪♫ღ ☼*♥*~ ☼ ღ

The music makes my body free

The music makes me forget the rest of the world

I can live free

I can live for just me

..with music

Why is life so difficult to live?

Can anyone tell me that?

We always have to choose amongst things

It isn’t easy all times

You will do both things but have to choose one

You think about it and make up your mind

But if you later realize that you chose wrong – it’ll be pain!

ღ ☼*♥*~ ☼ ღ♪♫♪♫♪♫Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ♪♫♪♫♪♫ღ ☼*♥*~ ☼ ღ

Sitting here an early morning

Don’t know what to do

I don’t wanna be here, but I have no choice

I don’t wanna be like the others

I just wanna be me

I wanna do what I feel

I wanna act like a fool

I wanna be crazy

I wanna be lazy

It’s so easy to be me

Easy when I’m free

Do just what I want

Tomorrow is not important

I live my life

ƸӜƷ☼ ~ Springtime ~ ☼ƸӜƷ

Oh how I love the blissful spring

The new and fresh in every thing

The morning light so bright and clear

Each new day a secret bear

The unveil of all shades of green

Most spectacular sight you’ve ever seen

I’m breathless – in awe –

I am in bliss

Every time just as taken by this ƸӜƷ ☼

I love the freshness of the soil

The leafing trees that start unfold

The sense of spring, so comforting

It shows us there’s no end to things

Trees and flowers will arise

A perfect token for the circle of life

I’m breathless – in awe –

I am in bliss

Every time just as taken by this ƸӜƷ ☼

Flower buds explode in colours

Nature changes hours by hours

Temperature is rising day by day

Life-giving sunbeams will find their way

Cascades of smells fill up the air

Most gorgeous scenting of the year

I’m breathless – in awe –

I am in bliss

Every time just as taken by this ƸӜƷ ☼

ღ☼* ~ Accept me - I AM ~ *☼ღ

Why do you judge me
for being happy

For being different than you

Can’t you just accept me
for who I am

Does my happiness scare you

Because the reason for my happiness isn’t obvious to you

Can’t you just accept me for who I am

You tell me I’ve changed

I haven’t, I just don’t care what you think anymore

Can’t you just accept me for who I am

If not, it’s really your loss

I am ME. Happy and real! I AM. Are you?

Can’t you just accept me for who I am

A hug ~ ღ☼*

A friendly hug is always good

It sets us in the greatest mood

A hug is really comforting

In every way, for every thing

A hug can still your deepest fears

And also wipe away your tears

A hug is something no-one waive

It leaves you feeling very safe

A hug can change the darkest day

And whisk all troubles far away

A hug can give the greatest vibe

And make you tingling mush inside

A hug can breathe of promises

And future filled with happiness

A hug can lift you if you fall

And make the day all magical

A hug is precious like a gem

We’ll never get enough of them

ღ Miss you ღ

I miss you

.......though we’ve never met ღ

I miss the touch of your skin

I miss the smell of your neck

I miss the strength of your arms

I miss your comfy hugs

I miss your gentle embrace

I miss YOU

.......though we never met ღ

I miss the way you touch my hair

I miss your passionate kisses

I miss the way you smile at me

I miss the warmth in your eyes

I miss the sound of your voice

I miss YOU

.......though we never met ღ

I KNOW you are there

When I close my eyes I FEEL you

Right there, close to me, as real as can be

I open my eyes, I cannot see you

But I still know, you’re there

........all the time

Will I ever manifest YOU

A dream?

At nightfall when I lay me down

like a Goddess on my bed

between the softly duvets

with rose petals all over spread

scented candles all around me

it relaxes me so deep

soft music in the background plays

sends me far off into sleep

Away in dreamlike state I drift

float off in awe and grace

a perfect state of being

in a very tranquil place

To a garden filled with roses,

butterflies and waterfalls

vivid seeing all creations

what might happen? See, just all!

Somewhere far in the horizon

one can see an eagle soar,

around, all perfect wildlife

see a deer, a wolf, a boar

Every creature’s very friendly

loving, caring synchrony

it is all so very lovely

we’re on equal frequency

All together, perfect balanced

every creature, every tree

fireflies before me dances

oh how beautiful to be!

All of what I can desire

breathes of promise to fulfill

now I feel that dawn is closer

please don’t wake me from this thrill

Then at daybreak when I wake up

to a new and gorgeous day

I still feel just like a Goddess

into the bath I go and lay

in the finest “milk and honey”,

that will softens up my skin

inside feeling bright and sunny

and not worried about a thing ☼
