Sweetness

Sweetness There’s a sweetness in the airthat’s calling me outdoors…. Yet, the comfort of my chair,inspired imaginings quite rare,(and fear of black flies everywhere)enliven metaphorswithin the rooms and corridorsinside this mystic’s mind. It is there where I’ll explorethe bittersweetness that’s entwinedwith thoughts of all I’ve left behindto wage a holy war — not only on […]

Shadow Work

Shadow Work Lurking in the corners of the mindare shadows of the future and the past.In shining our attentive lighton what’s ahead or left behind,we miss the mark Eternal Light does cast. Foolishly we linger in the darkby letting shadows fashion every thought.Aligning with our visions bright,we’d more than likely hit the markwhere Life’s Director […]

The Dream That I Am

The Dream That I Am How can the heart I once wore on my sleeveno longer conceive of a worldwhere laughter and love are the theme?Was it all just a dream?Was it only a dream…. It’s now my belief that born out of the griefand the scars that remain from the painis an answer voiced […]

In Search of the Future

In Search of the Future In search of the future,at times, I can seejust a flash of whatever will come to be. I release the pastand let go of the pain.In not asking why, my mind, I unchain. Alert in the present,I sometimes can feelolder fears bleeding through that I need to heal. I accept […]

Come What May

Come What May Listening to the whistling of the windwhile safe inside my hide-away, alone,I find myself chagrinedthat I can still be thrownby the uncertainty of where I’m being blown. Merciless analysis withinis matched by constant clattering outside.I much prefer the dinof leaves now dead and driedover the chatter that seems never to subside. Sifting […]

Pieces of the Past

Pieces of the Past From this point in time and space,pieces of the past replaceconcerns and feelings in the now.They dance and twirl, then merge somehowto reignite forgotten dreams,expanding loosely-basted seamsthat bound her human form’s attire,supporting what she did desire. Past and future, now and then — recollecting once againthe story Soul was meant to tell(ensconced […]

Ode to a Cloudy Day

Ode to a Cloudy Day Though all that’s new intrigues at first,quenching the long-forgotten thirstthat sparked my restless soul to roam,the memories of love and homeretain their presence in my heart. Slumbering with truths unknownuntil the day my Inner Cronereminds me of the plans I made,the karmic dues that must be paid,they then awaken with […]

Inspiration Alights!

Inspiration Alights! Indeterminate nights,inspiration alights! The word ‘involution’popped into my mind….To me, its meaning(though still undefined)was captured at heart. But just to be certainthat later I’d findthis seed that was sownby the Muses of art,I recorded and saved itto use at a timewhen heart, mind, and fingerscan fashion a rhymefrom energy that lingerson its own.
