Poetry

healing light
ending plight
father's son
holy one make me whole
flood my soul
angels sing ...

yesterday, i could fly
today, i must walk
yesterday, i healed with light
today, i feel pain
yesterday, i flowed with the divine
today, i have a fever ...

out of the gray
from behind the wall of black
springs the hope and color
of a rose
out of the misery
from behind the wall of loss ...

In the silence of the mind
A new day is dawning
From the depths of the soul
This moment is born Humble conceptions
Brave resurrections
Harness the fear ...

My heart weeps
When I allow myself to think
I may never see your face
But I smile My soul leaps
To the time we were together
So many lifetimes ago ...

Psychoses run rampant
in the flea-bitten hide
of the beaver
in autumn Fleas' thirst is sated
by the blood of the lamb
standing ...

Just beaneath the surface
Rising heat within
Potential for creation
Silence from the din Bubbling emotions
Feel the final wave
Rain on the horizon ...

thoughts and prayers
love and light
healing power
stop the fight
believe the flow
rest in the waves ...

in the clouds
all is seen
by the eyes
child, divine in the heavens
all alive
angels sing ...

as time flows
love grows... as time fades
love pervades... as time slows
love flows... as time ends
love mends...

Into the pool
I gaze
In quiet reflection
Sons, three
I teach them
They teach me ...

I kissed her softly
Danced under the setting sun
Waves of new love's bliss

I met a butterfly today.
I had to let her go.
So, I wept.

Why seek what we don't believe we will find? I will never find that which I merely seek. To follow truth is not to find it. Be here. Be now. Be truth. Seek not, follow not, believe not... Simply BE.... The doors are open
The path, well lit
Enlightened way
Is here today Be the truth
See the way
Look to the heart ...

Surrender the heart
Give it to me
Make a fresh start
Answer my plea All that I am
All that I do
Glorious Lamb ...

Caught in the place
Between there and here
Walking in silence
Sleeping in fear To wake would be pain
I'll sleep for a time
As so many tend me ...

Magical pond
Walk on a cloud
Surrender to God
Say it out loud Healing for you
Healing for all
Pain drifts away ...

A long time ago
She was my heartbeat
There was nothing
I wouldn't do
For her Something happened
I crossed over ...

If noone ever faltered
Who would I help up?
If nobody wanted to learn
Who would I teach? If I never experienced pain
How would I learn to forgive?
If the clouds never poured forth rain ...

Rays of light
Shot in all directions
They reached the hearts
Of all who would open their eyes It was hard to believe
Difficult to conceive
Was he really floating? ...

Lovely young women
God's present, divine
Growing in confidence
Growing in mind Love from you touches
Deepest part of me
Crossing with sorrow ...

To desire peace
Brings feelings of lack
Which are counter to peace To be peace
Yields feelings of completeness
Which invite peace Two circles
The one is fearful ...

Gift from above
Angel's smile
Package of love
Newborn child Misty eyes
Look at her face
Blissful surprise ...

Driving today, I had a thought. That my wish was to find a woman whose beauty, both inside and out, overwhelmed me. I've had some very overwhelming experiences in the realm of the spirit lately. A deeper and deeper hunger for the greatest love of my life... Jesus.  So the thought occurred to me that I wanted that same level of overwhelming desire in the realm of romance... And I saw your face
In the eye of my mind
And for just an instant
My whole world stopped... Your beauty is astounding
Cuts me to the deepest core
Tears well at the thought ...

wriggling corpse
bug on the street
yesterday's rancor
is today's attraction
thought occurs to me
in a moment of loss ...

moment of grace
seek your face
father, lover
fill this deep place door to increase
pathway to peace
brother, savior ...

I love you... like the fragrance of a rose
as the softness of its petals
the stem that always grows
nourished by the earth I love you... like the song of wind through trees
in the forest ever green
peace that calms my heart ...

Place of deep quiet
Inviting the light 
Met some old friends 
Surprising in sight Remembered their names
Up from the deep
Memories surfacing ...

Opening the doors
Releasing all fear
I face the me of today
and of yesterday I needn't let go of the burdens
But instead, merely accept
That they have all created ...

Ransom the lasting desire
Chained to the memory
Walk the highest wire
Heart clings to the past Taught that love would last
By the ancient sages
Hope and truth surpassed ...

owl watches from the tall tree
darkness pervades the scene
yet, he sees all earthworm moves through the shallow soil
darkness pervades the scene
yet, he feels all winged creature flies through the night sky
darkness pervades the scene ...

moment captured
new thought saved
flowing stops
all is still
...
... ...

Inevitable
This day, like all things, must end
Unquenchable
Spirit pangs for the water of my soul
Synchronous
Our hearts are pleased when they beat as one ...

i trip
i fall
i stumble
i cry
i keep walking
i learn ...

dream the dream
twin souls finding
dawning destiny
melding, connecting
chrysalis reborn
new wings, new life ...

Everlasting
Glory for all the ages
Into your shadow
We live for your love Gracious father
Creator of here and there
Into your light ...

gentleness flows
from the heart of one
met you in a dream
frolicked in the sun beautiful swan
lovely in grace
colorful hues ...

One more view
One more poem
One more day
One more smile Enjoying the view
Living the poem
Seizing the day ...

In utter stillness
The mind flows free
Big Mind to little
Angels to me Breathe the deep water
Talk to the toad
Connected to Heaven ...

listening intently to the soft breeze
i hear the words you whisper
from so very far away
yet so near
dance with me
joining hearts ...

where is the truth?
in the heart of the thief?
where is the heart?
when so many suspend belief?
walking together
each day, new words told ...

Ancient rumblings
Past fears
That are yet to come We all feel them
At the deepest of levels
But most of our receptors
Are disconnected Those of us ...

So, having lived the dream
The time had arrived
And we awoke Fresh, alert, alive
Flying toward the light
Progenies of the night
