Shades of Nature
Walking westward Along a path Strewn with shades Of Nature I find the rhythm Of my heart Beating With heaviness And joy… Curiosity Do I employ As it calls me to Capture Contrasting Colors Light And Love… One Way Above The blue hue Generously lit To expand Upon a cathedral’s Countenance… Pink, green, and blue…

Condensing
Through fog-lined trees Nestled in A misty embrace I find my pace Face to face With the belonging Beloved… Wholehearted Words Attempt to transcribe An ineffable experience Like flocking birds’ Flight to Sky… Alighting upon A branch Of immense Jubilation Tears Muffle My expression Of the Wholly Divine… Maybe this journey Is intentional In its…

Watching The waves Of consciousness Wash by I had a moment Where I was The Ocean… More than A moment, really For time stretched Into a stillness Where I was… I saw… I felt… The infinite Enormity Beyond Pain Or comprehension… I saw and felt My fellow sufferers Resisting Their waves And wanted For them…

Blowing
Instinctual inflammation Waxes and wanes Like the moon’s rays During a cold Morning breeze… Palm trees Flitter leaves Bending As a sign Of the times… I feel the occasional Nostalgic need To caress, comfort And feel And find those Fading As phases In my solitude… This attitude That all is As it should be Shows…

I Care
“I care For this Suffering” She said— The meditation Teacher In my head Teaching The inward Reaching Of hand On heart Connected Unapart Unsevered Belonging To this Loving Being. What Would your Future Self Say She said To the wounded Walker In my head— The walker Trudging The road From head To heart Holding space…
