A Dawning of Peace

No Comments

From the depths of our longing souls
We cling to the sometimes dim hope
Of the gift of the Love
That heals

Peace for all the world
Beginning with a giving heart
Giving to another in openness
Stands waiting
For just one
To give to just
One other

It all starts in an instant
With the grace of surrender
Releasing fears, lack, dim illusory seekings
In just an instant
A gift
Given another

All one in holy hope
Infinite string of dominoes
Waiting for just a little nudge
A little gift
Of kindness

We (too often) wait
For the visions and feelings
Of love
To see and feel and give
Love

One gives to another
Another to yet one more
The chain reagent
One outrageous soul
Giving, without need
And peace
Dawns…

Sacred Kiss

No Comments

Expanding resplendent bliss
In the moments before we wake
Awaiting the perfect kiss
With eyes, agree to partake

Heightened sensations we share
As feelings grow and expand
Seeing the hues in the air
Joining two souls in one Hand

Breezes where breezes can’t be
Feelings their wings flutter by
Seeing what Love’s eyes can see
Too immersed in a kiss to know why

And ten years later we know
What we knew from that very kiss
The angels are present and true
Where love is both sacred and new

Love’s Burgeoning Essence

No Comments

Wonderment of fragrant delight,
Blooming in the morning dew,
Indeed a dim prelude,
To a hint of beauty most true.

Waiting with effort in the garden,
Confidently smiling, I sip my tea.
Feigning calm and peace,
I wait anxiously for thee.

I stand as love approaches;
Pray for a smidgen of resolve;
Overwhelming art thine beauty;
This time, I dare not dissolve.

Accepting your hand, pale and fair,
Gently raise it to a waiting smile,
With boldness, brave a wish,
Ne’er return to solitude erstwhile.

Love’s essence burgeoning,
Touching two lives this day,
Leaving for just an instant,
I raise mine eyes and pray.

Potion

No Comments

Cauldron of mystical potion
Boils into the dark and moonless night
All who will partake in it
Will burn with the demons’ great fright

Loss of all that once mattered
Surrendered for a taste of magic brew
Grinning the grin of the damned
Desperately wanting something new

Numbness of life’s perfection
Sacred food at the table left to rot
Taste a taste of darkness
It’s waiting here, fresh and hot

Night’s Moonlit Beauty

No Comments

Walking through the night’s moonlit beauty
Reached out and touched your waiting heart
Thoughts mixed with feelings of strong desire
Combining and drifting and moving ever closer

Twinkling stars far above the perfect scene
Called to mind the smallness of this coupling
You and I and millions of millions of others
Galaxies of wonder in dazzling bright eyes

Yet in the midst of the overwhelmingness of all
Not really in our deepest essence all that small
Part of a universe of galaxies of oceans of love
One in the waters, divine home of Providence

Drifting through the night’s moonlit beauty
Riding the oceans of stars rising before us
Unified in the great ebb and flow of forever
Combining and loving and moving ever closer
