Puppy - Part 3

Two years ago, I went into debt to try to save you.
But you passed away anyway, it's sad and it's true.
I paid thirteen hundred dollars with my credit card.
When it came to facing your death, it sure was hard.
When it came to saving your life, I certainly tried.
But sadly, on the seventeenth of August, you

Volcano Run part 3 - Escaping the Ashfall

Part three

Once we were home, the bikes secure
we sealed the clubhouse, best we could
waiting for the ash to stop 
but fearing that it never would,

All the TV news was dismal;
all predicting different things,
each with warnings dire and dreadful
of the dangers ashfall brings.

I dug out pairs of coveralls
and painter's masks for us to wear,
and cartons of

The Masnavi of Giti and Saeed - Part 3, 4 and 5

Part Three — Zuhrah's Song (1)

O knower of love and mystic's wine,
Sweet mistress of the dance divine!

With harp and lute she weaves her tune,
Her music soars beyond the moon.

A queen whose steed none can outrace,
While kings of every land give chase.

From dawn until the setting sun,
She sang of her beloved one.

"Sweet Giti," thus she named

#fly

I'm looking so fly
even groovy she says
in threads
from the retro store

#embrace #nonet

Let the night enfold our sacred bond
where shadows softly play for us,
suspending time in moments 
of our blissful wishes
and tomorrow dreams~
why must daylight 
then arrive 
and love 
end?

in the lobelia 
a late lunch

tiger lillies can't
reminisce when there's no one 
worth talking to

TRIADE 3 The Owl

A cheetah avoided the trap that night
And the wild cat escaped the shot.
Someone was there for them to learn 
And each of them were taught.


The Bear had chosen to spare the cubs 
For the ease of the Mother Bear.
But the man with the gun
Fell pray to own stun 
And we didn't drop any tear.


"Was this

A Porch Swing's Tale
The sun hangs low, a bruised peach in the sky
my old boots are caked with the red dust of a journey I never started
three

This here porch swing rocks on, steady and slow
but my soul feels like it's caught between the back porch and the front gate
somewhere between a hello and a goodbye,

3 Copper Coins, And The Kite Caught In The Telegraph Wire

The man was
handsome, intelligent,
and good in bed.

But he just
had nothing
to say.

And all of his days
were the same.

Monochromatic
introspection followed
by a sort of smothered
self-expression.

He never
felt like himself.
And he always felt
worried about what
other people thought
about him.

Who even was
he?

His routine?
His career?
His interests?
His beliefs?

Beliefs?

The man had
no beliefs, the
man didn’t need
to believe.

For if he started believing
in something, he may have
actually needed
to

But my drowsiness is nixed

Premium MemberLiberation step 3

light imbibed must be assimilated
present always in active cognition
when awareness is not agitated
God’s love and light is our heart’s emission
unbroken then remains His transmission
poised as such liberated while alive
we see God in each form in heart’s bliss hive

Premium MemberChiaroscuro

Backlit in life’s shadows –
the exacting burden of responsibilities –
you are lost.
Bathed in light amongst shadows
of trials and tribulations that
internal hope defrosts;
one can but surmise 
your inner strength,
as the light bends to reveal the cost.
