let's Build a Castle . . .







at times in life when there is a mountain in front of us that we must climb,

adversity will always put stumbling blocks upon our path that we may stumble.

Mind not, just collect each Stone, for when you get to the top of that mountain you can then use those same stones to build your Castle!…

searching for David . . .



Searching for David



We live in a time where there are many Goliaths that walk amongst us. We see them in our Governments, Our Industry and our Communities. They express themselves through our Banks, Our Medicines, Our Food and Our Religion. They, these “Giants” of Men seem to have no empathy for the “Common Man”. We, the “common Man” have been all but reduced to a “Statistical Casualty” of their visions of Deluded Grandeur of Self. Do they…

all signs point North . . .



all the signs point north



living on the cusp of lust

i reach for love i must

as my life goes ambling by

not quite understanding

the urgings nor demandings

yet i try, i try, i try



but to no reasonable avail

i abide with a fear to fail

i constantly avert each day

i still seek to find

in the land of the blind

the lantern that lights my way



the some-thing…

kiss me . . .



kiss me



oh the night of life has been so long

as i await the sun to rise

yet i see a glint of light my friend

in the recesses of your eyes



my heart has been a longing

for the harvest of my hopes

my lover and my dreams i held

from my consciousness did elope



despair and anguish sat upon my shoulder

whispering their logics in my ear

the fruits they afforded me in…

in rhapsody . . .



in rhapsody . . .



his speech was rhapsodizically prodding

the depths of his ancient heart

to turn around, and take in a new perspective

altering but 1 degree to make a new start



but i did not wish to begin again

to travel down this long solemn road

the back of my spirit was aching deeply

and i was but looking for a dock to unload



the burdens we carry forth as…

sweet seeking . . .

sweet seeking



he was surreptitiously trying to find his way

trying to sneak up on his light

while in the winds of timeless thought

she danced upon his plight



yes love had no notion of his grief

for she is blinded by the life smiles

though love bears a grief of her own

in her journey of Tears and Trials



in absences of an awesome wonder

and the sweet soft whispering…

the Train Ride . . .



the Train Ride



i was on a Train

with a multitude of stories

i listened as each soul told

of their failures and their glories



the experiences held upon

the lines on their faces

speaking hollow words endearingly

to fill the empty spaces



but to no avail

for word without power

amble along life’s trail

and in darkness thus they cower



afraid of the…

waves to come . . .



waves to come



the sound of the endless waves

rushing upon the shore

brings me to my realization

that i am so much more



we often seek to define our lives

as we take a purposeful stance

what we so innocently limit

lessens our chance to enhance



though i am but a small part of

all that exists and is to be

i know that i am connected

i feel the waves within…

as i breath



as i breathe i love

as i love i live

as i live i touch

as i touch i feel

as i feel i express

life

you and i



can you hear the drum beat

can you smell the joyful fragrance

can you see the grandeur . . .

can you sense . . .

life

you and i



the voices of Creation are whispering

our Sun pours forth His Grace

the Ocean is…

and there "i" be . . .



and there i be . . .



i sit here on the edge of my world

with all my cares before me

trying to manufacture some happiness

as i go within to explore me



perhaps it is my values

or the empty things i cling to

in my seeking and searching for meaning

in the goodness i be and do



but just what is goodness really ?

is it a Sign on my life’s Road . . . YIELD ?

it has to be…

my source . . . .



my source . . .



in the Ocean of my life

as the waves come to

the shores of my consciousness...

at times they are gentle,

at times they are forceful,

but they come . .

and they go . . .

and they come again.



i watch the children of life frolic

sometimes being engulfed

most times not

going against their approach

stolidly standing

awaiting the next…

am i ?



am i ?



the road that i travel

was paved with no regret

for the best of my life

is ahead of me yet



the lessons i’ve learned

in the trials of my past

have shaped and defined me

and are growing quite vast



as i look forward

to each “Here and Now”

i open all gates

that i may allow



the best of myself

to come forth to being

and i am…

it ain’t love baby



it ain’t love baby



the best of her self esteem

kept company with the snails

many years of trials and tribulations

and the spirit of who she is still ails



how could she allow him

to reign his terror of defeat

minimizing her best of self

to be but his “piece of meat”



even i embrace an anger

with no place to express it

so i utilize this pen and pad

yet this…

listen . . .



listen . . .



i was listening to the Silence

and it’s thunder in my ears

i saw my desire’s reflection

in a pool of my tears

i try to live in moments

and they add up to years

and each step within the journey

there are potential fears



but one thing i have learned

not one of us are alone

i feel this in my knowing

in the marrow of my bone

i hear Creation’s music

i shine . . .you shine . . .

i shine . . . you shine



and the child walked across the landscape of the Sun

deliberately . . .

step by step . . .

in attempt to get to the other side,

where the mystery of Darkness lived

but . . .

his efforts were in vain

and futile,

for . . .

He was the Sun !



May your journey be a bright experience of Joy and Love !



Blessed Be

are we are . . .

 

are we are

are we but code in the matrix

that wants to be known

are we the flowers in a garden

of Sacred Seeds sown



are we the music and song

the vibes of life’s lute

are we the Cosmic Logic

one can not refute



are we the color of creation

that struggles to be seen

are we destined or chosen

to see what “IS” means



are we mind that struggles

to unloose it’s chains

are we the life of the…
