“I’ll Be Your Legacy” a Poem

 

Crystal Michelle Fallin, 
St Augustine, Florida

I’ll be your Legacy

I’ll be your Voice

You live on in Me

So I’ve made the Choice

To honor your Life

By sharing your Art

To encourage and

 Give Hope 

To the Lonely-in-Heart

I love you

I miss you

I’ll see you Again.

“Talking to the Wild” - Poem

 

Crystal Michelle Fallin
Daytona Beach, Florida 2016


She sat at the back and they said she was shy

She led from the front and they hated her pride

They asked her advice and then questioned her guidance

They branded her loud then were shocked by her silence


When she shared no ambition, they said it was sad

So she told them her dreams and they said she was mad

They told her they’d listen then covered their ears

And gave her a hug whilst they laughed at her fears


And she listened to all of it thinking she should

Be the girl they told her to be best as she could

But one day she asked what was best for herself

Instead of trying to please everyone else


So she walked to the forest and stood with the trees

She heard the wind whisper and dance with the leaves

And she spoke to the willow, the elm and the pine

And she told them what she’d been told time after time


She told them she felt she was never enough

She was either too little or far, far too much

Too loud or too quiet, too fierce or too weak

Too wise or too foolish, too bold or too meek


Then she found a small clearing surrounded by firs

And she stopped and she heard what the trees said to her

And she sat there for hours not wanting to leave

For the forest said nothing, it just let her 

breathe

Costa Rica - “Near to the Brokenhearted”

 

Crystal Michelle Fallin, Costa Rica
Loving Memory 

I shall 

Gather up 

All the lost souls 

That wander this earth

All the ones that are alone

All the ones that are broken 

All the ones that are weary

And contrite In spirit.

Come to me, all you who are weary
And burdened, and I will give you rest,
Take my yoke upon you
And learn from me,
For I am gentle and humble in heart,
And you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30

The Lord is near to the brokenhearted
And saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
Psalm 34:18

“Unforgivably Herself” a Poem

 

Crystal Michelle Fallin 
Auburndale, Florida 2016

Unforgivably Herself

In her time

And in this place,

She was unforgivably herself,

Full of flaws, beauty,

Chaos and imperfection,

For these are the things

That made her the most real,

And the things that

Are real in this world

Are the things that

Are loved the most…

And, there 

In the mists of my memory 

I see you. 

And, there 

In the mists of my memory 

You shall always be.

“Spellbound” by Emily Brontë - Crystal Beauty in Winter

Crystal Michelle Fallin
St. Augustine, Florida - Winter 2018

Spellbound

By Emily Brontë

The night is darkening round me,

The wild winds coldly blow;

But a tyrant spell has bound me

And I cannot, cannot go.

The giant trees are bending

Their bare boughs weighed with snow.

And the storm is fast descending,

And yet I cannot go.

Clouds beyond clouds above me,

Wastes beyond wastes below;

But nothing drear can move me;

I will not, cannot go.

My Beloved Daughter
 January, 2006

It took an instant
To loss you,
And it will take
My entire LIFETIME
To grieve the loss of you.
GRIEF never ends because
LOVE never ends,
I will love you,
And ache for you
Until my very last breath.

Dancing with the Angels - A Heavenly Valentine

 


Crystal Michelle Fallin
A Heavenly Valentine 

Star light, star bright,
First star I see tonight,
I wish I may, I wish I might,
Have this wish I wish tonight.

I search the sky for you thinking that if I just look hard enough maybe I’d catch a glimpse of you in heaven.  I know you are there dancing with the angels.

“The Snow Maiden” A Poem

 

 The Snow Maiden

The Snow Cascaded, Swirled and Blew
In the Magical Kingdom
Of the Land of Snow;
Amidst the Snow Flakes and Fairies,
The Snow Maiden Dances,
Twirling on Pointed Toes
From Moonbeam to Shadow;
Her Silhouette we followed 
From Forest to Meadow;
Snow and Ice are Her Friends,
The Coated White Earth is her Floor;
Center Stage from Heaven
The Stars Shine on Her,
Seeking no other;
She is the Snow Maiden
Graceful and Fair,
In her Fairy White Dress
With Star Light in her Hair;
Dancing in Bliss
With no Worries or Cares,
Delicate and Graceful
From Finger Tip to Toe,
She's Eloquent to Behold;
Her Eyes Sparkles like Crystals,
Amidst the Snow Fairies and Sprites,
She Waltzes in Solace
With Mystical Delight;
From Winter's Breath She Sprang
Twirling and Dancing in the Chilled Air
Through the Forest and the Fields
The Wind Whispers her name,
Brilliant and Translucent, Crystal
The Maiden of Heaven's White Veil.

Angel of the Lord - “On Earth Peace to Those on Whom His Favors Rests”


 Crystal Michell Fallin, Lead Angel Nutcracker Ballet, 1996

And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.  An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.  But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,

“Glory to God in the highest heaven and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”

Luke 2:8-14

Christmas Tulips by Crystal Expressions


This artwork of the tulips in blue vases was done by Crystal when she was in the 4th grade.  I liked it so much, I framed it for her.  She showed so much talent at a young age.  The Christmas decor was added to include the card for Christmas.

She Believed in Magic

Crystal Michelle Fallin


She believed
In magic.  Not
Because she was
Naive, but
Because she
Lived through
Times when
Darkness was
All that she saw,
And all life’s lovely
Things were gone.
But her soul was
Wise enough to
Know that its
Survival depended
Upon maintaining
The memory of love,
Light, hope, and all the
Other things that magic
Is made of.

“I Know You as a Painter Knows their Art”




Crystal Michelle Fallin, St. Augustine, Florida 

San Marco Ave., 2018

 YOU MAY BE GONE

You may be gone

but I feel you

when the cool breeze 

brushes by


You may be gone

but I hear you

when the music plays

its last song


You may be gone

but I know you 

as a painter knows 

their art


You may be gone

but I feel you

right here in 

my heart

“Beauty in the Darkness”


Crystal Michelle Fallin, St. Augustine, Florida

Beauty in the Darkness


 Beautiful things happen in the dark,
When the sun goes to sleep,
When the stars give light kisses,
When the moon is a spotlight,
She stayed beautiful,
Even when she was covered 
In the evening darkness..
