the Sleeper's Song . . .

the sleeper’s song . . .

he sat on the perch of life and deliberately began to bear his soul

and he spoke in a tongue that has not been heard since the days of old

yes he knew the language of the Ancients now hidden

and he was aware that this tongue of light was quite forbidden

but the day has come and he somehow knew this

the invasion of the Darkness had to desist

for many a child would be lost… Continue

no baggage allowed . . .

no Baggage allowed

as i walked through the wood i listened

to the sounds of Autumn come about

as the Acorns fell to the Mother

Her embrace left little to doubt

Yes, we will all return from whence we come

this much i believe is certain

for soon comes the time in the life of man

when the Show is over and drawn is the curtain

yes, we must all eventually submit

if i should live . . .

if i should live . . .

if i should live a thousand lifetimes

a million more may come

for endless seems the journey

where we will know our sum

i’ve journeyed through the meadows

the mountains and the wood

seeking soulful answers

and gathering what i could

and through the paths i’ve traveled

the goodness is abound

discovering life’s fragrance

in the silence… Continue

through my stained glass window

through my stained glass window

through my stained glass window

i looked to the clouds

they were whispering my name

yet speaking aloud

through my stained glass window

i heard my soul

struggling to remember

it’s ways of old

through my stained glass window

i managed a smile

for someday soon

my inner child

through my stained glass window

will… Continue

you are beautiful . . .

you are beautiful . . .

they tell me i am beautiful

this much i know is true

for when i look in your eyes

i see the beauty too

for in you i see the possibilities

of all that we can be

like the Tower of Babel

there’s nothing we can’t “BE”

let us do come together

and speak the tongue of Heart

let Love be the only harmony

and we each will play our… Continue

i can imagine . . .

i can imagine

i can imagine dreams

i have not thought of

i can imagine a joy

that far exceeds love

i can imagine a path

that leads that way

i can imagine this world

come to be some day

i can imagine a garden

where all fruit’s sweet

i can imagine the eternal

in one heart beat

i can imagine the bliss

know by my inner child

i can imagine a… Continue

free thinker . . .

free thinker . . . huh !

i say that i am a free thinker,

but in truth, i am bound by the chains of indoctrination.

All the things i dream or wish to become,

are set before me to fulfill some other ominous expectation.

As i sit here in what i think to be . . .

contemplation . . .

or

deliberation,

i see myself immersed

in social condemnation.

But what can i cast dispersion upon ? . .…

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… Continue

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… Continue

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… Continue

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… Continue

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… Continue

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… Continue

the voices of Creation are whispering

our Sun pours forth His Grace

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… Continue

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… Continue

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… Continue
