As The Celtic Harp


As the celtic harp plays your favourite haunting air
My fingers softly caress your old and grey hair
Body frail and so tired you sleep
A deserved rest 82 years of love deep
Never were you more beautiful to me dear Mother

All the years pass before me
Quiet tears freely flow
I sit with you knowing
It’s not long til you go
Sweet aches of love are in my heart
For soon will come the time for us to part
And never were you more beautiful to me dear Mother

And when you leave to your heavenly place
And rest in Eternal Infinite Love’s embrace
I will play your song and somehow some way
Our souls will meet as they connect this day
And never will you be more beautiful to me my dear Mother

Love Compassion and Mercy on Every One

For all those effected in places of conflict 
Be that countries 
Be that in the home 
In families

Love and Compassion
For all the places inside us
That are in pain and in fear
 
Love and Mercy  
For all the ways that we need to feel  
And express our pain and anger and fear
Which has consequences and waves
On others around us

Love Compassion and Mercy
On all of us 
In all of our situations
For all that are around us
That are effected by our pain, fear, suffering

Love and Compassion 
On those who are blessed to be 
In the position of power
To make a difference 
Through their kindness
Through their sympathy
Through their understanding
Through their protection

May all beings be blessed
With God's Love Compassion and Mercy

And may we all feel the soothing
The release
The ease of our pain
And the restoration of peace
And Love in our hearts

Love Compassion and Mercy
On all of us be that 
In the home
In our cities
In our countries
Wherever we are in the world
With whatever we have to face
And deal with in front of us

God's Love 
God's Compassion 
God's Mercy
On Every One

With Thanks

Amen

Can I Expand Can I Heal Can I Open

Can I expand? can I heal? can I open?

Can the boundaries of my heart dissolve this time?

Can the light in my heart be set free at last?

Can the light just radiate from inside?

Can the pain in my heart just dissolve now?

Can my heart just relax and feel a sigh?

Can the softness return, that gentle easiness?

Can I be once again by my own side?

I Allow Myself The Space

I allow myself the space

To sit awhile

With all that is

Allowing all to be

Exactly as it is

I breathe and I watch

I breathe and I allow

All

I allow myself to be as I am

Where I am

How I am

And I contemplate a greater Allowance

Allowance without resistance

Expansion that accommodates

All there is

Allowing all in advance

Now and for all time

Mercy

I rest in Mercy

I abide in Mercy

I abide in Mercy

I abide in Mercy

I rest and sleep awhile

You Are My Valentine

Audio You Are My Valentine 

Though you may be far away
I feel you in my heart
With love and joy and happiness
Even when we're far apart

You're in my eyes, my thoughts, my dreams
You're always on my mind
Until the time you're back to me
You'll be my Valentine

You fill my life, you fill my heart
The joy just overflows
I sing aloud in happiness
Wherever our life goes

So thanks my love for all you are
And all you've been this time
Near or far it matters not
You are my Valentine

You fill my life, you fill my heart
The joy just overflows
I sing aloud in happiness
Wherever our life goes

So thanks my love for all you are
And all you've been this time
Near or far it matters not
You are my Valentine
You are my Valentine
You are my Valentine

My Soul Spoke Its Gentle Presence

I sit I connect I listen....
Your words mingle with my thoughts
Your soul appears and touches mine
I smile for a moment of beauty happened

My soul spoke its gentle presence

"I am here take me with you"
Yes I reply
I am already forgiven 
For my soul knows me well

The moment dissolves unfurls 
A gentle wisp it lingers 
And then it is gone
Filed for evermore
A memory in the Book of The Soul

My gentle soul gives way
As life calls to my mind 
Until the next moment of beauty 
Might find its time to be

I Am The Champion

I Am The Champion
The Champion is me
Don’t need you to see it
I see that its me

I am courageous
I’m standing strong
I know I can do it
Already did it for so long

I know my achievements
I know my success
I know what I faced
Overcame, that I’m blessed

I am Sandra Hillawi
The Sandra Hillawi I Am
I know I can do it
Already did it
That Yes I Can

I Wonder …

Audio here

I wonder if this new wave can be carried
I wonder can my heart expand some more
I wonder if instead of pain and heart ache
Soft release could come and love could be restored

I wonder can my heart expand yet further
To carry all with love and strength and flow
I wonder if its possible to feel thankful
For even this news that we just have come to know

Happy Christmas 2021

Happy Christmas Poem from Sandra 
There are many people who have touched my life, in times of crisis and challenge
In times of celebration and success on my path this last year. 

There are those who have sat with me and listened through my tears
There are those who have cheered me on and encouraged me through my fears
There are those who have been patient and supportive at these times
And those who have prayed for me and my loved ones, really so kind

There are those who have reached out with practical solutions and help
There are those who have engaged me for work that sustained me so I could help myself
There are those who  inspired me, who I have inspired, who honour me with their respect
There are those whose goodwill and good wishes hold me in a positive matrix net

There are those who surround me with friendship, love and care
Those who I laugh and have fun with, celebrate with, who are always there
For all these people, for all this love in my life
I give thanks from my heart, I’m truly blessed by Your Light

May you too be blessed with love and good friends 
And may I be one to you as you are to me as this year ends

And finally, My heartfelt love and thanks to you
Wishing you a very Happy Christmas and a wonderful new year too

Healing Take Your Time Dear

Healing, Take Your Time Dear

You are healing, there's no rush, 
Take your time dear 
Breathe, allow and just be 

To the self that calls your attention 
Look with Love and Compassion 
To what you see

Spend a moment, two or more in connection
In oneness, just breathe, silently

Then bow as the great rain of Mercy
Bathes you and brings you into humility

Surrender your self and your burden
Release, let it flow to the sea

As you merge with the Ocean of Love dear
Smile, be in thanks, you are free 

Sandra Hillawi 22 July 2021

Earthly Angels

Listen here

Earthly Angels

You might miss them in their quietness
For they seek not power or fame
Humble, unassuming 
With modesty they came

Their hearts are soft with gentleness
With warmth and happy power
They see what others cannot see
When stormy is the hour

In times of pain and suffering 
Of darkness and despair 
They spread their Angel wings of love 
And shine their light right there 

Love Compassion Kindness 
Their blessing to the meek
They lift us up, they brush us down
Set us back upon our feet

Then quietly they fold their wings 
Return to earthly duty 
Not seeking recognition 
For their hearts are filled with beauty

These Angels are our blessing 
Their Love, their open wings 
Their kindness and Compassion 
Touch our hearts and make us sing

May all our Earthly Angels 
Know our thanks and too be blessed 
May their earthly lives be full of joy 
Of love and happiness 

We thank our Earthly Angels 
Our hearts with love again 
Bless your hearts and 
Bless your souls
Forever more Amen

Absolutely

In the joys of spring our new love
Lit a light inside of me
In the happiest adventures
We laughed we loved we were free

Across the miles I would travel
To feel your warmth next to me
And I fell so deep in love with you
Absolutely
