Poetry

A weary soul


Pain tears at a
Fragile heart

Sadness overwhelms
A weary soul

What comes from this
Surely will be better

For through an opened heart
Love is free to flow

Freedom


Fighting for Freedom
Warring for Peace

Struggling to Live
Searching for Love

or

Freedom from Fighting
Peace to the Warriors

Living without Struggle
Love is Ever-Present

Arriving


Departing I am not
I've been arriving from the start

Adventure and challenge
I seek with a smile

The journey I embrace
With no final destination

A gypsy at heart
I have said of myself

A hunter and gatherer
Of knowledge and experience

There is no beginning or end
To the circle of life

Only markers
To indicate our place

The diversity of life
Is beyond our knowing

Our choice of paths
Is infinite indeed

Dwell not on the separation
But instead on our coming together

Endless


Loss is mere illusion
Death only a fallacy
Meanings misconstrued from fear
That our own life will cease

Life cannot be contained
Being transitory by nature
Expansion creates separation
Maintaining perpetual connection

Distance from one
Brings closeness to another
Enhancing quality by diversity
Blending elements of growth

When primal fears surface
Stirred by emotional pains
Soothed souls are born
By the singing of one - song

A melodious uni – verse indeed
Punctuated by note less spaces
The tune is of endless love
Orchestrated by divine unity

Stillness


Eyes softly closed
Warmth of light
Upon my face

Whispering wind
Stirs subtle motion
Butterfly takes flight

Delicate silence
Crystalline sound
Audible visions

Pulsing heart
Lifeblood flowing
Liquid love

Chest undulating
Peaceful exhales
Blissful breath

Questions answered
Stillness speaks
Tranquil wisdom
