The Eyes of Innocents

The Eyes of Innocents

The look in your eyes is distant -
a look that tells mankind to stay away,
so you may live in your own chosen space

The loneliness you feel while
traveling your road in search of
what you are searching for, lingers

Hearts long to capture your innocents,
too tuck you safely away from human
devilish hands that bring you harm

Strong and beautiful you stand your
ground protecting your birth given
right to survive, as your howl cries…

let me run wild, let me run free

- Rhoda Galgiani

Hidden Thoughts

Hidden thoughts tackle feelings
sealed eyes not seeing its task
angels protect the soul a
thoughts rush to come out 

- Rhoda Galgiani

Angel Hues

One is reminded as days pass by

of blessings that descend from the sky

Multiple colors from a solitary beam

catches your eye with its glorious gleam

Taking you within its massive glow

whispers to soften your saddened woe

As love sustains your starlit heart

guiding your life’s path from the start

Passionately, feel love for me and all

moments before you might take a fall

Into a rainbow created just for you

cradles your heart capturing angel hues -

in His world of love

- Rhoda Galgiani

Seeds of Life

 

Life wheel turns every second

memories of dreams where destiny roams

a small time on earth our seeds grow…spiritually

- Rhoda Galgiani



Merry Christmas from Rhoda...

Hero is He…

C hrist was born on this blessed day

H ero is He for showing us our way 

R everent are those who love Him so

 I rrevocable are smiles that glimmer like snow   

S ins are washed away in a gentle stream

T emptations are halted by the loveless it seems 

M asses gather displaying unified faith for they care

A ligned side by side they kneel in spiritual prayer

S inging their praises of love and glory that they share

L ife is forever for those who are faithful and receive

O fferings held high from those who don’t deceive

V isions of our heavenly Father triumphantly appear

E verlasting love reins, His promise to us forever held dear

Merry Christmas from,

Rhoda Galgiani

Merry Christmas from Gracie...

        Gracie's Favorite Spot - Mommy's Printer

 Mommy's Says Easy Gracie...Easy!!!

Dear Poetry Buddies:

When my Mom found me, I was three weeks old - that was in 2008! My Mother was a Feral Cat and had three of us Kittens, but she had no milk to feed us. There was my Sister, Brother and me. Someone found my Brother and Rhoda found me. My Mother and Sister were captured by the ASPCA and all I can do is pray for them.

If Rhoda hadn’t found me, I would have died. I have Asthma and she gives me my medicine every day if I have an attack. The very first attack I had I was seven months old and it was at night time. She and her neighbor rushed me to the emergency vet’s hospital about 20 minutes away. Well, to make a kitty story short, the Doc’s treated me and the bill was $672.00. My Mom whipped out her credit card and saved me. Her neighbors thought she was crazy for paying that much for a Feral Cat who was so young, like it wasn’t as if she had me for a long time. My Mom told them, ‘what did you want me to do, kill her?’ There is no way that my Mom would have let that happen to any animal. And so, she paid for my care on her credit card and was happy she had the card to save me.

So, here I am right this very minute on top of my Kitty Blankie on top of her printer as she is typing this for you all to read. When I was a tyke, she would put me up here to keep an eye on me and I love it. This is my special spot – and when Rhoda prints, I jiggle all over as the printer prints out! I am so blessed that I have a wonderful home here with Max and Mommy. And, you know what? If Mommy had to do it, all over again she would - because she loves me, she loves all animals and she had a heart of gold. Rhoda named me Gracie because I am Gray with four white tipped paws and a little white on my tummy and a white bib under my chin. I know you have seen my picture because she brags about me all the time. But most of all she named me Gracie because, I was saved by the Grace of God…

Love from,
Gracie Galgiani

PS: I am so happy my Mom Rhoda writes poetry, because she is pretty darn good at it!!! LOL

Music of the Mind

 

Silhouette captures

moonlight as she dances

Music stops, she wipes

sleep from her eyes

Realization, there

are no love notes

 

- Rhoda Galgiani

He Gave Me Wings

 

He said unto me - follow

For I shall lift your soul high

Your heart is full not - hollow

Fear not your lost soul shall fly

Hear my laws that lead you - home

Trust my word come close to Me

Your spirit sees lighted - dome

Glory shall be brought to thee

Flying with your angel - wings

To heaven where spirit lives

Fingers yearn to play harp - strings

A place where God loves and gives

Come! Feel His forgiving ways

See His light with golden rays!

- Rhoda Galgiani



Rejoicing Him

 The Rapture

  
He opened my eyes and then empty heart

Taking my hand and leading me to love

Dark soul become light like a piece of art

I shall never roam from my home above

He shows me how to be what I now am

Given directions I walked to the gate

I tell Him of my love I hold His hand

Saved my life before it was too late

I am blessed by the right choice

His love came gently my way

My heart sings to His voice

Joyous day

My dear Lord

Hear my voice

You’re adored

I shall rejoice

Forever in your embrace

I know I have found my sacred place

- Rhoda Galgiani



Unseen Presence

 Music lost

Silence touches flute

Sound within the mute

Nature waits - then came

Harmonious breath of sound

By untouched hands

Season's Style

Tree sways in Winter Breeze

Breath of winter breeze
commands a coming freeze
snow bows in winter white
hovers in heaven’s light -
ice crystals cling

Nothing Single

Two look at the moon

Grasping the world together

In a moment of love

With his maiden fair

Joined today

Love Died Like Wilted Flower

Love lost in a moment’s breath

Confusion filled the moist air not expected

Mind becomes full, thoughts of death

Sparrow’s sighed while loving heart was rejected

Pain filled the lonesome late hour

Dark and gloom overtook the promise broken

Love died like wilted flower

Taken by one, the heart buries vows spoken

Alone, no sweet dreams of you

Midnight hour comes to one with heavy heart

Night drifts by, color deep blue

We two must forever step away and part

Time will heal a broken soul

As faith sustains one who can see their own light

Love will bring a brand new goal

Next time love comes to my heart it will be right

One learns from past mistakes and character flaws

Which is a good thing, don’t go back to what was

- Rhoda Galgiani

Simplicity

Suddenly -

a touch brought
the frown to a smile
without warning the
stranger turned it around -
epidemic now shall spread

- Rhoda Galgiani

Mother Nature Smiles

Ah, Mother Nature

Snow, she comes again

with a cold wind

wrapping a chill

around whatever, whoever

stands within her path

Flakes of crystal design

covers, hides, burying all is

her sole desire - she is a storm

created of fury that displays

a winter wonderland

Degrees over time drop as

snowflakes lay themselves down,

covers with a blanket of white

burying the existing floor

that is our earth’s foundation

Upon its pass, the glorious sun

speaks to us revealing to our

weakened weathered state,

she has come and gone again

for another day as -

Mother Nature smiles

- Rhoda Galgiani

Inhale

Have you ever noticed how a feeling

can come to one through the innocents of

nature’s flight that can send you reeling?

Look homeward and see his smile as
his creations fly within a silent sound
telling us he is with us all the while

A simple message seen with our eyes

that calls to all who adore, he says,

I am watching over your silent cries...

Take a moment to inhale - me

- Rhoda Galgiani

Night

 Night shadow

Draws picture

On silent

Flat wall

Muted art

I Trust...

~ We are the Children of the Lord ~

I trust in Him always

Never have I been scorn

For He shows me my path

Showing me truth and love

I am saved from my wrath

I trust in Him always

He makes sure I am safe

Protects my daily stride

Guides me on my journey

Whether narrow or wide

I trust in Him always

For His truth cares for me

He clears dark eyed vision

Counsels my every move

Make the right decision

I trust in Him always

I will follow Him home

For He is my true Lord

I never need to fear

With Him, my soul has soared

- Rhoda Galgiani

A Women Scorn ~ Sonnet

The heart has turned away hiding inside
Conceals the pure love that once did glow
Afraid to reveal pain the heart does show
Broken with slashes deep trying to hide
Body mends the mind closed the gap so wide
Love has taken the soul far below
Buries the guilt so his hand cannot sow
Heart crying deep tears as true love has died

Soul has learned not to trust anymore
Steals ones mind and thoughts not to restore
His lying lips she’s now a woman scorn
Emotions wasted on visions now torn
Walks alone to regain life as was born
Brings hope to a women who is lovelorn

- Rhoda Galgiani
