On The Mountaintop
On the Mountaintop My brow was kissed by the Sky And a Golden Voice whispered Do likewise with those who live and die… Honesty and compassion Flowed from up on High… I wept tears indescribable Ineffable, though I try… The path of the past vanishes As vapor fades into the moment… All was necessary for…

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…

Time Change
It’s a time change A rearrange From a history Of misery… Springing Forward Northward Toward A New Moon— The immediacy Of Now With an intention Of how I’ve learned To love this place Of how I’ve learned To love to face All of the shadows Of inadequacy And let them go In the hallows Of…

Waves
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…

The Flow
I am a particle And a wave— A microcosm Woven into Humanity… In chaos, Consciousness Swimming With equals In confluence Beyond comprehension… Letting go of The delusion Of disconnection, The ego Has nowhere To go… Death to disbelief As Peace Pulsates With intentional Pauses… The ineffable Escapes me As I lose my “I” And consciously…

Sky Shadows and Roadrunners
As orange Fades to blue Sky shadows My mind imbue Subtle Sun Fingers Linger And Reach Each To beseech A message Of Hope Where nary A cloud Can be seen Yet Anti-crepuscular rays Slope… What mist Of mystery Creates Such a sight? Where mountain Peaks Sneak Shadows Without Light? Light leaking Against A blue backdrop…
