One word becomes one idea, becomes one sentence, becomes one
poem, becomes one story. It must start from just “one word”. Today my one word
is “Ghosts”.
GHOSTS
Ghosts from our past, present and
future are not covered in translucent white cloths, flying around us, hissing
and booing like disembodied souls. They are not ghastly creatures trying
desperately to frighten us with their evil presence. They are our life’s
ghosts. So go ahead! Open your eyes! Our ghosts are there! They are always
around us. They want to interact with us. They are visions of people and
memories from our “past”, visitors in our “present”, and possible opportunities
in our “future”. We learn from the ghosts of our “past”, we live with the
ghosts in our “present”, and we anticipate the ghosts from our “future”. We
must all recognize our own ghosts and listen to their messages. Learn from past
visions, past voices, current visits, new conversations, their words of wisdom,
and future possibilities. These special ghosts are time travelers who secretly
accompany us on life’s journeys. Once you realize their presence, overcome your
fear, and embrace their worth, you will soon discover that your ghosts are
simply your protective guardian angels teaching you life’s lessons.
GHOSTS
No translucent
white cloths?
No flying
creatures?
No ghastly
beings?
No hissing and
booing of disembodied souls?
No Ghosts you
say?…No Ghosts I pray!
But there is
something disrupting my day!
Visions and
Memories
From a “Past”
life
Living with an
entity in my “Present”
Anticipating an
eerie “Future”
Past voices
Current visits
New
conversations
Words of Wisdom
Future
Possibilities
No Ghosts you
say?…No Ghosts I pray!
I feel them, I
do – don’t you?
I remember the
“Past”
I know the
“Present”
I fear the
“Future”
I live with
these time travelers
Who secretly
accompany me
– I am no longer
free!
Who might they
be?
Yes! They are
there!
But where? Is
this fair?
My Present
becomes My Past
My Future
becomes My Present
All riding in on
the backs of these Ghosts!
No Ghosts you
say?..No Ghosts I pray!
…But they speak
to me of life’s lessons
They whisper
gently into my ear
They pave the
way on my journey
And my fright is
no longer here
For I embrace
them with love
These smiling
beings from above
So Ghosts they
are not
I will accept
them, somewhat
From a world
away…
- My Guardian
Angels are they!
