I am a dancing prayer
and pray blue skies,
the sun, flowers, honey and bees
I pray a song, so loving and sweet
I pray a poem, wordless, holy
I pray and as long as I pray
you are with me

©RoseGirl2024

My bird, when you fly
make it a dance
gracious and holy
the wind behind your wings
is your music
whatever leaves
always comes back
life is circular
we just dance the lines
of the lemniscate

©RoseGirl2024

I whisper
my unwritten letters
to birds
so they can sing them
to you
to herald the dawn
and bring light

©RoseGirl2024

Eyes look in the distance
now only a few miles away
which nevertheless
seem unbridgeable

But they don’t realise
they need to look inward
deep into the heart
where miles fade

Where unsaid words
say it loudly
and are heard
there where you always stayed

©RoseGirl2024

Spring’s sun
in winter’s cold
promises warmth
in lonely hearts
soon ice will melt

©RoseGirl2024

All the fog
around our heads
Nothing to see
everything unclear
But the hand on our heart
betrays we are elsewhere
At what a beautiful place we are
this place called love

©RoseGirl2024

The ocean of love
can only flow
and reach you
absorb you, become you
once you let go
of your dams

©RoseGirl2024

I seek and find you
in so many ways
even on cold gray winter days
you’re in the snowflakes
swirling down on my face
melting with love

©RoseGirl2024

I don’t leave you behind
in memories
in yesterdays or past years
nor do I place you in the future
For love is the bird in the sky
that flies across
the borders of time
always soaring
in the now

©RoseGirl2024

I am still here
my eyes, my ears,
my hands
are still there
to receive
your words, your silence
your dance, your body
your songs, your poetry
all of you
directly
into mine

©RoseGirl2023

I breathe in autumn
let go of leaves
and branches
that aren’t me
to find out that love
is the steady trunk
of the tree

©RoseGirl2023

There you go
And you might think
you walk your path
through the woods alone
But can you see, truly see
how I am beside you
along with the fairies,
the spirits, the trees
to hold your hand
to cheer you on
as you find your way home

©RoseGirl2023

Do you take my poems with you
when you travel
Do you put them in the suitcase
of your heart
so you always have something
that journeys with you
to remind you of love

©RoseGirl2023

Do you find the muse
as I find her
if she connects me to you
and breathes pure poetry
and melodies into us
and even alchemizes
our tears into art

Do you find the muse
as I find her
or does she find us
here in our shared land
even if the mind
is narrowed and closed
she finds her way
to our hearts

©RoseGirl2023

No matter the rain, storms,
swings, losses of autumn
the tree of love for you
only grows
higher and higher
and fills the air with hope

©RoseGirl2023

You were so close
You are so close
Here and there fade
in the landscape
of the heart

©RoseGirl2023

Did you like to dance through me
this morning
when my feet made poetry
when I showed you every piece
of the dancefloor
moved you through
rhythms and melodies
I held me, held you
by dimmed light
while outside
trees danced along with us
in wind and rain
Did you come alive
when you heard
the music of my heartbeat

©RoseGirl2023

Words,
feelings
perceptions
and passions
you and me
and what is beyond
and between:
The things
that need to be danced

©RoseGirl2023

I hear
the lost word
All those years
it just hid
in the corners of our heart
and waited
till we could speak
love

©RoseGirl2023

I’m here
behind the veil
you only have to take
one step
to crack
the mirror of illusions
to pull away
your fears and projections
and to see and hold
me

©RoseGirl2023

May I have your hand to dance
through this night
to dance the sleeplessness away
to dance dreams
big and light
to dance moon and sun
through the dark
and dance our way
to the dawn

©RoseGirl2023

You’re feeling me
feel every feel of me
even more of me
from head to toe
and beyond
my fire, my water
my air, my earth
my sound, my silence
my words
without being spoken
in every piece, every corner
every depth and high of me
you’re feeling
you in me
me in you

©RoseGirl2023

You’re here
right where I walk
right where I breathe
where I am
sleep and dream
where I dance
write, cry and laugh
you’re here
in my tears,
in my love
here with me

©RoseGirl2023

Without our eyes
and touch
we have contact
by a warm feeling
in the heart
as it has its own sense
and always knows
the right frequency
to connect

©RoseGirl2023

Do not miss my words
for they are only an echo
of the poetry my eyes
have already written
in your heart

©RoseGirl2023

I hum with the wind
swing gently with the flowers
sing silence with the birds
Bare feet in wet grass
feel the freshness of the morning,
the possibility of thought
as you hum along with me

©RoseGirl2023

Crossing the borders
of time and space
just by saying your name
by saying a prayer
by loving, imagining
by dancing
by being
for my feet, mouth and heart
touch everywhere
as I am everywhere you are

©RoseGirl2023

Dance come find me
touch, envelope me
Music, pick me up
swirl and move me
be like a breeze

Dance, please hold me
and give me a grip
on my feet again
make me light
make me open
make me own it
and dance me to my love

©RoseGirl2023

I dance in de rain by the river
The wind, water and sand
dance along with me
in staccato, in chaos
and flowing
as I dance the sun
in wild weather
with wild heart and thoughts
to break clouds
and then the best is yet to come

©RoseGirl2023

The rain hides the blue of the sky
though we both know
of the sun and the vastness
of the sea of air behind it
that always connects
your world with mine

©RoseGirl2023

No matter how much
I shuffle the words and letters
they always fall
perfectly together
into poetry
whenever it is about you

©RoseGirl2023

Powerful thoughts
that can cross mountains
and oceans,
night and day,
are like mail pigeons
that deliver you love

©RoseGirl2023

My thoughts are the most
beautiful colours
with which I paint us all over
I paint you, I paint me
blended together
in a masterpiece
of our own

©RoseGirl2023

The forest where we once walked
still echoes your footsteps
whispers your name
or does it just reflect
my essence
as it sees you in me?

©RoseGirl2023

In another land
under another sky
you play your music
too far away for my ears
but tones know how to reach me
as I feel it by my dancing heart

©RoseGirl2023

The moon is on our side
She holds the story,
holds the line,
shines light
on all our dark places
keeps an eye on us
so we remember love

©RoseGirl2023

Where is she, he wonders
But he looks in the wrong places
as she never went farther
than his own heart
