see the magic . . . be the magic

 



see the magic . . . be the magic



i live in this perfect world

of which my “I” is in charge

i am but a child of wonder

where all this appears large



i am awed by the simplicity

of the most complex of things

and illusions are my teachers

for which creation sings



i lift the curtain to my Oz

there’s no magic that i see

all without is ordered

by the Magic within me



all i am is adventurous…

she was in pain

and i could see it

i held her hand

so i could be it

and now i knew

i had to free it

for her pain was my pain too



a kind word spoken

that she could hear it

for pain is such

that one would fear it

in silent screams

we all bear it

what are we to do



so within i pondered

all about it

it is quite real

he was a broken man

for which he was grateful

there was a time he stood erect

but he could not detect his soul . .

his heart.

as he reflected

upon a life past . . .

a life gone by

he began to cry

not for anguish

nor for all the years wasted

not knowing

where was he going

but he went anyway

night by night

day by day

sightless…

for the unbeknown friend



for the unbeknown friend



i have spent most my life

looking for rainbows

and the Pot of Gold at it’s end

now i know for certain

the greatest treasures in life

is to have one you call friend



when i look in your eyes

i see all the colors

of your life’s highs and lows

but i want you to know

that i am here with you

no matter where your path goes

and love within you’ll know



and love within you’ll know





fall behind

and get in line

is that what God created me for?

but there is something

that is amiss

i feel it at my core



i am troubled you see

by what’s in me

that whispers odd things

when i submit

and listen to it

i hear what my soul sings



you would have me wilt

and be full of guilt

that i may do just as i’m…

my Christ within. . .



my Christ within. . .





because you do not believe in your higher “self’

please do not condemn thy brother nor me

and do not condemn your self my friend

for i pray one day you’ll see



that the words that my Christ spoke

that the Kingdom resides within

resonates with my eternal Soul

that resonates with Him



now “Christ” is but a title

it is not One’s last name

there is a solemn place of solitude
i can only find within my “Self”
and when i explore it’s wondrous treasures
i come to know “True” wealth !

the Bridegroom is calling

to His Bride within you

those simple times . . .



they were simple times

in simple days

with simple people

and simple ways



no complications

between me and thee

brothers were brothers

and friends were friends

when strife arose

we made amends



i wonder what happened

to those simple times

when nickels had meaning

Jiegu earthquake: Survivors in a food tent at the race track

We have pulled out of Jiegu now. The altitude sickness was badly affecting us. I wanted to put down some quick thoughts about the situation on the ground.

China survivors cremate their dead



— Survivors of Wednesday's deadly earthquake in western China's Qinghai provice have begun mass cremations of the dead.



Buddhist tradition says that the dead should be left outside for vultures to eat in a so-called "sky burial", but with so many bodies to dispose of the monks have sanctioned the cremations.



Hopes of finding more survivors are fading and the rescue efforts are turning into a clean-up operation.
