A bright light appears,
forms before an eager eye.
Wishes shine brightly.

Sign of Hope
Awakening
Another place,
another time,
presence so rare,
also divine,
searching around
watching time fly,
creating stars,
painting the sky.
So far away,
a different land,
colorful days,
spent counting sand,
heartbeats well set,
emotions ran,
formed destinies
within each hand.
A distinct season,
in a new world,
with many reasons
to dance and twirl,
the beaming sun
shimmers and swirls,
warms up the land,
brightness unfurls.
Delicate hues,
kiss infant eyes,
exposing truths,
that feel so wise.
Gifts of clear views
are then applied,
mystical dew,
form future shine

Seek
Do problems leave when senses close?
Our minds can see the unexposed.
Feelings can hear beyond disclosed,
perceptions build to then propose.
Can hearts still break if left alone?
Harden in time, turn into stone.
Form what is real from the unknown,
preventing love from being shown.
Will tears cascade with eyes shut tight?
Sealed so aligned, no room for light.
Inner warmness kiss with insight,
eyes gleam with joy, fulfilled so bright.
Do carried scents transport through time?
Happy tastebuds will clap and chime.
Guiding the soul through major climbs,
floating to when moments are prime.
Can spirits wake with just one touch?
Ego’s firm grip will free its clutch.
Highlighting life with a paintbrush,
every new day, built bright and lush.
Will silent voices softly sing?
Euphoric tones make all ears ring.
Peaceful enchantments slowly cling,
providing answers wrapped in wings.

Inner Strength
An aura that is dignified
with all actions solidified.
All tears that fall are crystalized,
leaving onlookers mystified.
A presence that is whimsical,
Beyond anything physical.
Perplexing the most cynical
An ever growing miracle.
Swallow it whole, feel it inside,
filling heart up with inner pride.
Smile becomes wide, walk with a stride,
twinkling glow that can not hide.
All questions asked, hear a reply,
great sense of wisdom within eyes.
Forming a whole from distinct sides,
anchors all fall, true self floats high.
– Grace Y. Estevez- Reddy
Merger
Light and darkness
in a dance,
feeling sweetness
in romance.
Putting harshness
in a trance,
removes distress
from their stance.
Light and darkness
intertwine,
bringing balance
by design.
Paint the canvas
gray defined.
Softened hardness
made divine.
Light and darkness
merge as one,
without protest
all have won.
Steady progress
has begun,
shining brightness
like the sun.
– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy
Infinite Presence
What do you see? In you and me.
Quick reflections, that set views free.
Complex judgements, simple tests?
satisfy thirst, eyes deserve rest.
Capture great pain, extend both hands,
speak wiser truths, appease commands.
Forget my name, all that I am,
cry on weak knees shout stale demands.
Infinite light, flows forever,
guides stubborn will, through endeavors.
Teach to let go, hearts and dreams fly.
Glued together, flutter so high.
Wise eyes that see sorrows, will cry,
regain pure faith life grants new tries.
Climb great ladders, way past the sky,
increase wisdom as days spill by.
– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy
Lucid Dream
A mirrored screen
for all to see,
of old life scenes
once formed by me.
One special dream,
that came to be.
My soul a beam
of energy.
Drops of extreme
and anchored keys,
created schemes
while stealing peace.
My heartbeat screamed
in agony,
killed self-esteem
brought apathy.
Alone at sea
drowned the disease.
While feeling free
reached clarity.
Gained empathy,
my spirit gleamed.
Shined brilliantly
the past redeemed.

Drawing
A sip of coffee with sweet foam
brings me to my childhood home.
Scents and flavors interweave
playful thoughts kept me naive.
Mystical nights on the phone,
magical days of unknowns,
chose pretend and make-believe,
painted world my eyes conceived.
A gulp of water twist of lime,
brings me back to present times,
offering all I can give,
forming the life I will live.
Obtain all the goals I crave,
heartbeats strong, feeling so brave,
knowing all actions I see,
are directed back to me.
A guzzle of pure love and light
transports me to a bright sight.
Sparkles twinkle on my face,
formless body kissed with grace.
All good things will follow through,
build the stories pick and choose,
ask a question, build a view,
then examine what I drew.

Stillness
Keeping self-control.
Requires lots of inner strength,
along with patience.

Dive
Silver lakes with golden dust,
made to remove, tarnished rust.
Take a dip and be surprised,
every trouble is revised.
Warm bright lights shine deep below,
look around awed by the glow.
Suddenly energy grows,
laying free, feeling the flow.
Hear the breeze whisper a song,
close my eyes and feel so strong.
Miracles slowly appear,
as all answers become clear.
Mystical euphoric rays,
mists wise eye, removing haze.
Opens up powerful force,
true connection with pure source.
