Take a moment
to follow your breath.
Breathe in Peace,
Breathe out Love.
Breathe in Peace,
Breathe out Love.
Breathe in Love,
Breathe out Peace.
Breathe in Love,
Breathe out Peace.
Allow yourself to be nourished
and awakened by this simple
practice often.
from the book, Good Mother, Welcome
I’m very pleased to announce the arrival of my new book of mystic love poems, Moonlight and Remembrance. What follows is the introduction from the book, and several samples of poems. There are more poems to sample on the product page for the book.
I thought I’d post this love song here. When I first wrote “I Symphony You”, one woman brought her husband to my little shop so I would sing it to him. Another sent it to her estranged boy-friend, and they became engaged. After that they asked me to come sing it at their wedding. I’m happy about that. This is one of the songs on my album, Savor The Days.
You, Love, are my earthly joy,
My village and my song,
My reason, my belonging,
And the good that makes me strong.
With your arms around me
My heart knows blessings, blessed.
With you here beside me
Is how I love life best.
~Ingrid
I love you like a fiddle tune.
I love you like a jig.
I love you like the month of June.
I love you like a fig.
I love you like a hoppy brew.
And a warm down feather bed.
I love you like a dream come true
And berries and butter and bread….
( Ingrid’s note: I don’t actually love figs…but it went so well with jig. Now my secret is out, I promise I am still sincere. … These wonderful candleholders are made by The Mad Potter on Martha’s Vineyard. The video below was sent to me by my friend Heather. It’s so joyful and free and, well, it made me cry happy tears.)

Come out of the circle of time,
and into the circle of love.

I had a wholesale request which prompted me to realize I needed to recreate the Valentine Phantom book, a heart warming story which takes place, Once Upon a Time, in a small fishing village by the edge of the sea…It is a romantic tale about a boat builder, his dog and the one he sets his heart on…
I’m still trying to get a photo that does this new one justice. It’s really sweet! CLick here if you’d like to read the story.
