Pain

No Comments

Pain is lasting
Memories unforgotten, relived, cherished, held
Visions of yesterday, last Tuesday, the brawl in the schoolyard
Forty years ago

Pain is forever
Thoughts cling to sensations, sensations to thoughts
Twin siblings, knowing intimately the shared songs
Of life

Pain is existence
Contrastor of goodness, of joy, of pleasure
Black waves crashing on the rocks
Each starless night

Pain is purveyor
Carrying the memories, the fears, the lessons
Her teachings, the sole way of persistence
Of thought, of perception, of life

Forgiveness

No Comments

To know you have wronged me
To understand I have been hurt
There is found the clarity
That leads to the opportunity
To forgive

Embracing all that was
Which led to all that is
Opens perception’s door
To the fullness
Of perfection

Unalterable, unadulterable, unassailable
The past is solid diamond
All that can be changed
Is perception
My perception

In an altered perception
That the harms were for my good
There is found the seed
Of forgiveness
My forgiveness

Embracing what was
Pure, divine, perfecting
I walk through the golden gates
Of peace
My peace

a shared dream

No Comments



where my dreams meet yours
is the truth of our reconciliation
one grand plurality
spectacles showing our vastness
our majestic awareness
melding
in reality

one shared reality
from billions of connected stars
billions of connected souls
wandering, resting, dancing, building, gathering
creating
in reality

what is reality?
that which we dream?
or that which we both perceive?
the intersection of your soul with mine
the melding of two humans divine

to set down my needs
i learn the meaning of love
compassionately yielding
my perception, my truth, my desires
for yours

and to act in cooperation
a merging of intents
to drop on the path we walk together
all that i dream
all that you desire
all that we intend
this magnificent path
the path that is our reality
broadens

our path of compassion
discarding our individual dreams
laying away our beliefs
opens to others
widens
becomes their invocation, their invitation

where my dreams are set aside
and your dreams are laid down
there we find a higher merging
one and one and another
new majesties explored
new universes dawning

new realities forged
in peace and love
perfection redefined
in a growing and learning God
the God of Union
one and one
and another

Forever Lost – Forever Found

Diving into
The sweetest essence
That is the nature
Of you
All time stops
In the old existence

We see this
In a new point
Of perception
In the universe
Newly created
In the passion
Of the sweetest essence
That is the very nature
Of us

Returning
After a time
We are changed
Forever

two eyes, one view

No Comments

two eyes
two visions
merging
separating
perceptions
sensory cues
images stored
retrieved from the mind’s eye
echoes of yesterday
ripples into tomorrow
touching today
meeting in an instant
can one eye perceive depth?
can two eyes not project?
memories of a distant view
perceptions of a moment new
seen by one or two
undertake the next coup
intermingled
thoughts, visions, feelings, beliefs
coupled with another’s
creating a new reality
ride the new waves
curtail the resistance
recognize the new reality
built on a word
and a look
and a dream
in an instant
here and now
hear and know
see and renew
be and believe
trust and perceive
in a moment conceive
and all is well
here in this space in time
where two meet
and join
as one
